It's as though they believe they're going to be in power forever and thus never be held accountable for their actions. I wonder why they'd think that?

- mrbigbob 2 months agoSo is Trump going to every few weeks pick a fight with a country, institute tariffs, tank the market, then remove them so him and his cronies get even richer? Great.. Im sure this will have no negative effects at all...
