So Trump wants to put tariffs on Brazil & Argentina for steel, on French wine & champagne too, & says the trade war with CN may drag on thru the election. ??? This is random acting-out for its own sake: pointless disruption as fun. Trump has no idea if this is good or not for /1
the country, nor what end-state would be sufficient to halt his trade actions. T is creating tension, bc he likes doing so, likely bc of the media attention he garners. This is like his attacks on NATO. Those too serve no obvious purpose; they're thrown together on the fly and /2
change w/ his mood. I always wonder if this erratic incompetence is what 'populist' voters in America really want? There is barely an ideology at work here. It's just chaos-making for its own sake, bc norm-breaking thrills Trump so much.What is politically attractive in that? END
