Wow, it's a good thing Powell isn't, you know...Jewish.
As usual, the Fed did NOTHING! It is incredible that they can 'speak' without knowing or asking what I am doing, which will be announced shortly. We have a very strong dollar and a very weak Fed. I will work 'brilliantly' with both, and the U.S. will do great.

It always takes him a while to find someone who do the firing for him.

Not sure what level of villainy needs to exist before someone calls this clown down from the balcony rail…

What other job could he have, and behave this way, and keep that job?
1. Self-employed (check)
2. President whose party doesn't care what he does (check)
No company he doesn't own would keep him as CEO or any type of executive
Can't see a state keeping him as Governor
Definitely not anything with a professional license
Nothing where he's on television (unreliable, erratic)
He needs to just be on a permanent golf vacation. Starting Jan 21, 2021 if not sooner.

This sums it up:
With a China less willing to back down and a trade war maybe too far along to stop, the president is backed into a corner. He may feel he can’t save the economy by folding. And so he may follow his instinct — one of the few consistent policy views he has expressed for decades — that protectionism is good for the economy, and that despite what the markets and his advisers are telling him, trade wars are good and easy to win and more tariffs and more disruption will only mean more winning for the U.S.
What the president showed us today is he’s prepared to hit the gas as he approaches the cliff. That should make us all worried about the economic outlook — and it should make Republicans very worried about the political outlook.

Who would that be? He's doing this with the full faith and backing of the Republican Party.
