He's like that over confident political blowhard on the internet who picked up on one term used in policy at some point and tried to wedge it in as the appropriate answer to everything.

    Sort of except the fact that he wants to be a dictator. Tariffs require no approval from Congress and it's the only peaceful offensive weapon he has at his disposal.

    He knows better (at least let's hope he does) than to send troops anywhere for 90 days.
