Rachel Maddow: Trump crashed the world's markets based on the advice of a fictional economist.

3. I Saw That

I knew Navarro was a self-aggrandizing clown, but I didn’t realize just how much of a shitstain he truly is. Apparently, TSF tasked Jared to find him an economic advisor in his first term. Jared did an Amazon book search (!) and ran across a book with a catchy title. He liked it enough to contact the author, who turned out to be Peter Navarro. Rachel noted that Navarro repeatedly referenced a supposed economic expert - who, as it turns out doesn’t exist. In fact, the ‘expert’’s name was an anagram of Navarro. So our economic policy has been designed by a fraud found by Jared Kuschner who manipulated an idiot into adopting his ridiculous ideas. Can’t make this shit up.
