Definitely DON'T put anything past him. We are seeing what happens when some warned about his "promises" and it was waived away as a bunch of hooey, but is now coming to fruition.

Right now, the federal government has literally been gutted - FOR REAL. It's not "hyperbole" or "rhetoric". People HAVE literally lost their jobs and/or retired and there is nothing but skeletal remains of it at the moment and the media is dutifully reporting on it as if they are narrating an action/adventure movie.

He could suddenly "impose" a "China-level" set of tariffs on them to attempt to force their hand (and piss them off even more). It's all he knows - bullying.
