    It appears the sarcasm in my czar lament wasn’t apparent.

    Without sarcasm, I do think Trump is making a game or a joke out of threatening our sovereignty because of his size and military advantage.

    His miscalculation is that he isn’t an emperor… yet. Economic consequences to tariffs on Americans will eventually become unpopular enough that republican reps and senators will collectively twist his arm to back down by taking away their rubber stamping. The rumblings are already happening.

      Let’s hope that US senators and congresspeople can give the wittle baby a big new idea to distract him from starting WW3 in a way that minimizes collective suffering.
