The orange farce president. Unattended consequences.

The trump charade is coming apart at the seams in a couple of ways. His unrealistic ideas, promises, lies, have failed for the most part. Healthcare reform. make Mexico pay for the wall , building a wall, immigration order, sanctuary city order, have all failed. His biggest win was the supreme court and they had to change the rules to get that done. His number one goal of tax reform will also fail. All of this, with more to come will have unattended consequences. Failure.

Another trump charade being exposed is that trump is tough. Wrong. Trump has a trait that is typical among bullies. He is a coward at heart. Trump uses money and power to threaten and attack people. That is not courage. That does not make him tough. When you stand up to him he will back down and move on. He backed down on China, Mexico, etc. Leaders of other countries are going to catch on to this fact. Stand up to trump and he will back down.

He just put a tariff on Canada. Canada should return the favor. Lets see how trump reacts. What are the unattended consequences of this tariff? Did trump study this issue? I don't believe so.

Trump is a farce in every way. The unattended consequences of his charade may not show up for a while but, when they do they could be severe.
