    I mean it’s not dumb if the goal is weakening the US. Which is what Putin likely ordered.

      doesn’t need to order, trump’s childish and ignorant mind is incredibly easy to manipulate and think he came up with the genius idea by himself, especially by the likes of KGB putin.

      The net result is making China’s market technocratic dictatorship style minimally competent next to this sinking ship of fools as disaster capitalists dismember the state.

      This. People keep talking about Trump’s actions like he’s a screaming child let loose in a candy shop but his actions have been calculated, swift, decisive, and effective. In a matter of days he has put the US into the weakest position it has been in decades. This was planned.

        Planned by people other than Trump. He is good with it because he is a piece of shit, but he is just a puppet.
