7. If he can't get a shooting war, a trade war will do nicely

Trump is sitting in his office right now, thinking of the clubs he'll use this weekend and singing Qqueen's "I Want It All."

"All": a war started on his watch, to eliminate any tax he pays, to wipe out all vestiges of the Obama Administration, to turn the US into a theocracy, to sell off all public lands, to get rid of the last vestiges of The New Deal and to spread fascism around the globe.

And guys? The chorus of that song is, "I want it all and I want it now."

In the first article I turned up, the exact opposite is true - diafiltered milk exported into Canada is hurting their dairy farmers.
