Listen to this idiotic gibberish on trade from Trump

He's a complete imbecile who doesn't understand anything about economics or world trade. This makes zero sense.

this is actually worth listening to. not because it's that more insane than most other stuff. but it's a window into how he understands trade. and he understands in the sense of having no idea how anything works.
