The story about Vietnam making a "deal" on the tariffs was a lie?

Is it a lie coming from a desperate man? He is panicking.

He doesn't want any of his tariff "victims" to think that they can't negotiate a better deal.

So, he pretends that Vietnam is already dealing with him. I doubt that story is true. But he always needs one lie to prop up the next.

He wants the other nations to save his ass.

He screwed up royally and the Republican Congress may have to pull his nuts out of the fire?

outlandish and idiotic claims that would back his stupid a&& actions. Idiot is a stupid, living, breathing and perfect example of a MORON that doesn't listen to anyone.

How many trillions of dollars has he done over the past several weeks or so? So far, I count a minimum of 4 $trillion dollars, a minimum!

And to be honest, I think I'm underestimating the estimate of losses, and plus, I'm not including any other exchanges, just the NYSE. Losses in commodities too are piling up, w/ the biggie one, China, going to another supplier for their soybeans.

Nice, mr. tRUMP, really nice. Idiot.

Maybe it's time to remove tRUMP from office, he's certainly not helping the American Economy at all. Do you realize how long it would take to repair/replace over a minimum of $4 trillion dollars in losses?

And the bonus? Businesses and people are going to freak out (they probably already are), and will cut back severely (even more so than recently) in their spending. BIG TIME.

tRUMP has really f**ked up big time. There's no excuse. No rationale for this sort of action on his part (and the markets are agreeing w/ me (or I'm agreeing w/ them)).
