"We don't need their product. We really don't need their product. So if we cut off trade with that country, we just made $40 billion. We do a few countries like that, and we become a big money machine."
The dumbest motherfucker to ever hold the office by a country mile

The fact that most on the right can look at this guy talk idiocy and then say, "Yep". It blows my mind.
