Trump and his fig leaf
To trump US dreams depend on tariff,
Not if the math would not add up, what if,
A tree’s just tree to Trump
E’en if a dried-up thump,
To hare brains, enough to hold on fig leaf.

Note: It’s just beyond Trump to understand that if high tariffs make it tough for the exporters, it also makes it so for the importers and the domestic consumers to whom they add to costs and inflation which is already on the rise. Yet, his focus is on the added revenue, not on the truth that this revenue would not enable domestic production and employment, American costs being too high.
