All good questions - I assume all completely meaningless to his audience


even his media audience. It's all about Trump being able to scream "You screw us, we'll screw you" -- just pure raw populism. The substance is particularly funny -- 100% tariffs on plants actually manufacturing in Mexico, 10% tariffs on the "rest of the world".......because, everyone is screwing us?

I honestly never thought this could sell to more than a fairly narrow slice in this country. I'm obviously very wrong. And it's particularly remarkable because most historical populist champions at least have better ways to semi seem like "men and women truly of the people". How anyone can truly think Trump exhibits anything (including caring truly about the heart of this country) other than the most narcissistic traits humanly possible -- beyond my comprehension.
