Attention Donald Trump: slapping tariffs on neighbours isn't the same as stiffing contractors!

Well, here we go. Time to strap in for a wild ride. Chaos, with a dollop of authoritarian fascism, is on the rise.

Indiana University professor David Honig lucidly lays out Trump's approach, as clearly as I've ever seen. Have a listen and see if this makes sense to you.
