Gen Z and Millennials: In ten years when we’re still without a cure and you’re caring for your parents, remember what he did.

Here he is today, deeply concerned about economic hardship caused by his tariff scheme.

It’s well known that I was on The Apprentice. We were all covered by NDAs at the time, but mine has now expired. And do I ever have some tea to spill. I’ll post it later today after consulting once again with my attorneys.
