“Money talks and bullshit walks”.
Trump, despite his boasting and braggadocio and bombastic statements, folded when the pressure came on from his wealthy billionaire friends and the bond market.
Only the previous evening he had boasted that the leaders of 75 nations around the world were calling him “sir”, “kissing his ass” and looking to make a deal.
Now, he is the one looking for a deal because his moronic trade tariffs and attempted ending of global trade threatened to have such foreseeable and catastrophic consequences for America.
Of course he sent out some witless, all cap, statements on social media telling people to stay cool, it would all work out and “now was a good time to buy”.
But when the cost of borrowing soared on the bond markets for America with genuine fear about the future of the US economy, trump folded.
Grifter.
