How does nobody just call this out as batshit insane? Also, with the thought of not trading with any other countries, doesn’t that imply we will just trade with ourselves, aka socialism lol

    I think Autarky or isolationism is a lot more accurate descriptor of what he is creating than socialism. Socialism has nothing to do with trade strategy/methodology after all.

    Ahh good point, well I guess I skipped ahead to a step, because whatever happens, it ends with like minded individuals coming together to help each other. That's just basic human nature for those of us that aren't psychopaths.

    You can't in that setting, they wouldn't have been invited if they were a media outlet that was willing to ask real questions.

    Even when you can he will just say "quiet piggy" or rage quit the interview.

    So true, but as has been said before...even the newspaper and journalistic coverage inside the US seems relatively tame on this, which is wild since this is old man yells at cloud level of stupidity.
