That’s the same Fed chairman that he picked for the job!
….My only question is, who is our bigger enemy, Jay Powell or Chairman Xi?

“Our great American companies are hereby ordered to immediately start looking for an alternative to China.”

The term “hereby order” is meaningless in this context.
Until I moved into an apartment building in Chicago, I never knew they made a 14 watt light bulb. Somewhere the landlord had gotten a case of them, to save on the electric bill I guess. They were in all the hallway fixtures and outside lamps. You could sort of tell that they were on. They cast a cheery glow for inches around.
Trump is a much dimmer bulb.
“The term ‘hereby order’ is meaningless in this context.”
It’s because he forgot to say “herewith, hereby, and hereinafter ordered” isn’t it? The lawyers always get you on the little details.
