I somehow was not aware of exactly where and how Trump got the idea that tariffs were a solid idea. Behold (youtu.be)

I keep hoping that someone, publicly, in front of Trump himself, completely belittles him. Example transcript:

Trump: Tariffs are good! Make America strong! Person: (loudly and with dismissive hand gestures) Oh shut up, you incoherent crybaby idiot. Nobody cares what you think. Trump: You can't shush me! Person: You seem grumpy. Did you eat recently? Maybe go play with your friends?

(I hope you are able to come up with more colorful and hilarious examples of convos)

Based on my own hand-wavy analysis, I think that it will be effective on two fronts: 1. Narcissistic collapse of Trump. It would break Trump, in public, which will probably make him look even more like a crybaby, idiot. 2. Collapse of the cult of personality around him, specifically "the strongman" personality.

Such a damn shame because it would be so easy to pull his teeth. European leaders alone could have him roll up into a little ball. And the media should be hammering him with humiliation.

I don’t think it would be that easy. Wishful thinking. Elons son did worse and he’s like 4.
