…but he only hires the best people……
Rex Tillerson, a man who is “dumb as a rock” and totally ill prepared and ill equipped to be Secretary of State, made up a story (he got fired) that I was out-prepared by Vladimir Putin at a meeting in Hamburg, Germany. I don’t think Putin would agree. Look how the U.S. is doing!

“Our country can take in $120 billion a year in tariffs, paid for mostly by China, by the way, not by us,” he said. “A lot of people try to steer it in a different direction. It’s really paid — ultimately, it’s paid for by — largely, by China.
Either he’s an incredibly incompetent businessman who has no idea how businesses (or tariffs, for that matter) work, or…???
Anybody who thinks *American* businesses who pay the increased tariffs *won’t* turn around and increase their prices to *consumers* is living in a dreamworld.
