So I’ve been reading articles about trade negotiations with China, and one of their big complaints is consistency.  They’re frustrated because Donald Trump doesn’t seem to know what he wants out of a trade deal, and keeps moving the goal post, regardless of how willing they seem to be in dealing.  And the more I think about that, the more I can put into context things like Trump declaring that illegal immigrants should be kicked out of the countries, no due process, despite that being unconstitutional to the extreme.  Trump is basically a toddler.  He has expectations that he’s going to be taken care of in every aspect of his life.  If he wants something, like a toddler, he doesn’t take into consideration what it takes to get it, or even if it’s permissible.  That doesn’t even cross his mind.  He just knows that he wants something, and that the people around him, like a toddler’s understanding of his parents, are there to make that happen.  But unlike actual parents, the people around Trump are ACTUALLY there to make his whims happen, which has meant skirting the law and the very foundations of what is allowed.
