@thejapantimes #Trump#Tariff strategy doesn't exist. He doesn't live up to agreements, e.g. with Mexico. He claims all sorts of agreements with other countries who quickly dispute them. He continuously sets and changes deadlines. The entire point of this exercise is gratification that he can make the world dance when he pulls the tariff lever. It produces the chaos he loves. This will go on for as long as he is president. think Lucy, Charlie Brown, football.
