    He doesn’t know a lot of things.

    • He doesn’t know how tariffs work
    • He doesn’t understand the difference between a budget deficit and the national debt.
    • He doesn’t understand trade deficits
    • He doesn’t understand how inflation works.
    • He doesn’t understand how supply chains work.
    • He doesn’t understand how international treaties work.
    • He doesn’t understand geopolitics.
    • He doesn’t understand the concept of “soft power”.
    • He believes that he is the de-facto leader of the rest of the world.
    • He thinks that he can just make proclamations and the rest of the world will just roll over and obey.

    And I’m not making up a list to just mock Trump. If I were doing that, I’d add things like “He does not know how to sexually pleasure a woman” and “He does not know what an appropriate amount of spray-tan is.” That is just the beginning of a long list of concepts that a seasoned politician needs to have mastered but Trump just objectively doesn’t understand. And he’s the one in charge now.

    And I’m saying he doesn’t understand it in the way that an a chimp will still try to cram a square peg into a round hole because they do not grasp concepts like “Square”, “Circle”, or the difference between them.

      You forgot a few things. He has no idea how the US Government operates, it’s not a private business. He has no idea what a President does, or how to be one. And he keeps repeating that ‘illegal’ immigrants are dangerous crazy criminals because he thinks ‘asylum’ means the crazy house. He does not know what seeking asylum means.

      The man’s go-to strategy for literally everything is to fuck it up, declare bankruptcy, hold everything up in court, and brag about his success while shilling merch. This much, he knows very well, and the US is just another business venture at the great capitalist gangbang.
