about how the idiotic economic policies being proposed by TFG* in his speeches would crash our economy and not just for the duration of his misrule. It will take decades to rebuild trust with what will be former trading partners, even if a miracle occurs and we get a veto proof majority in Congress and manage to reduce the ability of a autocratic dimwit pulling stunts like these ever again.

Hang on, kiddies, the ride's going to get very bumpy and it won't get smoother for a long time.
