Trump highly disdains everyone else, including the most accomplished people. Nobody comes close to being as smart he is. To preserve his version of reality he has to lie to himself non-stop. Since he easily believes the lies he tells himself, he expects everyone else to believe his lies too.

Imposing tariffs on the whole world at once is not like putting a tariff on an individual industry. It is like pulling hair out of a horses tail. You can pull it out one hair at a time and get by with it. If you try to pull all the hairs out at once, you will get kicked.

The distant horizon represents the future. The fine architecture represents human abilities and wealth for facing the future. You are not going to be alone and have plenty of water to drink. So do not despair.

It was a sweet spring night, in blue-black heavens hung the dewy stars enwrapped in a soft down, and trembled like early almond flowers swung by evening breezes.l Nikos Kazantzakis The Odyssey (Greek Mythology Bestseller)

In shadows deep where moonlight wanes, Where whispers dance in eerie strains, There prowls a creature of the night, With eyes aglow, a chilling sight. Amongst the hibiscus, crimson blooms, Their petals soaked in midnight gloom, A vampire lurks, his thirst unbound, In silence, stalking without.. Fey
