I don't see that at all. Especially with a lying fuck like the WLB.
BTW, turns out that he's a pretty shitty prognosticator, too.

Quote:Donald Trump fell well below his promise of 4 percent economic growth in 2017
Quote:Trump pledged a 4 percent growth repeatedly during the presidential campaign and into his presidency. He was so sanguine that he predicted it may rise even higher at the presidential debate in October 2016. "We're bringing [the Gross Domestic Product] from 1 percent up to 4 percent," he said. "And I actually think we can go higher than 4 percent. I think you can go to 5 percent or 6 percent."
He's little better than a used-car salesman and anyone who believes a word he says is a shithead.
Well, let's try an analogy. Suppose you plant a vegetable garden. You haven't got much of a green thumb, so to impress the neighbours, you install full grown tomato plants, and take credit for growing them. This is taking credit for something you haven't done.
Now suppose that a 20kg meteorite comes plummeting through the atmosphere and lands on your vegetable garden, instantly transforming the whole thing into a rather unattractive cinder. I come along, survey the damage and say, 'This wouldn't have happened if Minimalist wasn't such a lousy gardener.'
See the difference? Trump is a lying sack of cubical wombat dung, but he's got fuck all to do with Kmart shuttering a bunch of stores.
