He is destroying the world economic system while the world watch. For him it is child play. How horrible!
He needs to contact Wharton and ask for his money back on his degree because obviously he doesn’t know anything about Global Trade.

Hey, nobody is stopping them. Do it! Guess that chicken little shit Trump too scare to open his mouth now, the Stock melt down was too much to handle.
