Trumpenomics?

One of the outfits that plans to sell their automobiles in the United States is GAC Group from China. I bet Tan the Conman loves them, not least of all because [this](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trumpchi) is one of the marques. I bet he’d give them a great deal on building the cars in the US.

The President would [like everybody to know](https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1111214993293357056) that just because someone isn’t ultimately prosecuted for a crime, it doesn’t make them innocent, and indeed they should be subjected to further scrutiny to see if there are any other crimes they have committed.

Somewhere in the tweet binge was a threat to close the southern border again - here we go with this unhinged shit again.

Also, CFSG has apparently decided gasoline prices are too high and has commanded OPEC, via Tweet, to increase production. I’m sure they’ll get right on that.

I’m sure it’ll be about as effective as billing Mexico for The Wall.

Trump to close the Southern Border next week if Mexico doesn’t do it first:

Great. Yeah, Mr. Trump, go ahead and shut down the fucking Mexican border. I’m absolutely certain that’ll work out at least as well as the government shutdown did, if not better (for certain definitions of “better”).

If he can shut down the border by fiat, who needs a wall?

Well, in that case you’d probably still want a wall as backup. Fiats are notoriously unreliable.

Can we just build the wall out of unreliable Fiats?

Every time you use an apostrophe to make a word plural, a puppy dies.

I was talking with my oldest about the [sundowner](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sundowning) next door and she said, “You mean like Trump and his tweets?”

…

She may have something there.

Texas used to have a long tradition of voting Democratic. I wonder if Chump actually shutting down the Mexican border would finally bring that back.

Is anyone else hoping that Mexico tweets “Okay, fine, we’re shutting down the Southern Border!”, in hopes that Trump won’t notice the difference?

Do we still have to pretend that Trump is saying that false stories in the press are “the enemy of the people”? Here he is telling us that “[the press](https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1114221533461790721)” is said enemy.
