It’s a stupid and blatantly superficial move that he thinks maybe will make Americans less angry because we can still afford our windows to the circuses. But he’s too mind numbingly foolish and arrogant to realize he’s already lost. The dollar is on the path to losing its status as the world’s reserve currency, that marks the end of US economic dominance and a full rebirth to the global economic system.
