For a second, I was worried this was the name of the actor who plays Roy because I didn’t know his name. Thankfully not the case. I agree with your statement after I looked them up.

Piece of terrible unabashed shit?

I'm only a mensa genius, but I'm starting to think that these guys don't know what they are doing with the tariffs. Who would have thought that an adjudicated rapist wouldn't know when to stop and think about his actions?

There's your problem. You need to be a stable genius for any of it to make sense.

I mean, he pretty clearly knows what he’s doing with the tariffs: Waffling on them to manipulate the market.

I honestly think trump's gonna make me rich.

I went 100% in the Europe 600 stoxx at the hysteria

You would turn them off and then on. They would already need to be on in order to find out they're not working.

What do they think tariffs are gonna do? Do they think it is like a video game where when you beat the final boss the doom and gloom that surrounds the area is suddenly lifted and it's all sunshine and green fields and birds singing?

Even if there was a solid plan on bringing back what they want back AND they are willing to actually work in those sweatshops it will take many years. Decades even.

The most charitable explanation I know is that Trump is shaking down different politically connected groups. He talks with different people and that leads to a shift in policy.
