This is what people mean when they say he is unfit for the office. He hasn't the foggiest notion of how to do anything. He just makes stuff up, like this tariffs thing, and lies for a rationale.

It's amazing that we have all these major corporations in the U.S., headed by supposedly smart people, and has a one of them come out and checked the law, like this writer from Foreign Policy did. I was curious so I did a search under business community criticize trump's tariffs. I got nothing of a factual basis: just warnings that this is going to be terrible, or have a bad effect, etc. What you would expect, but why didn't anyone check into the way he abused this law?

He's known to be a liar, so why wouldn't a person who has a big stake in this check how he went about it?

I'll bet if Pelosi was still speaker of the House, that she would have gotten someone on it.
