This is the same man who bankrupted casinos, stole from a children’s charity, set up a fake university, etc. Why did people think that he would be a competent president?

>US Federal Reserve system employs almost 25,000 people. Its rate-setting board alone employs several hundred researchers, almost all of whom have a PhD in economics. Their job is to come up with one of the world’s most important numbers: the Fed funds rate, which is effectively the price of money in the world’s most powerful economy, and which affects the prices of commodities and financial instruments around the world. Now, however, America is proposing replacing this multi-billion-dollar system of data collection and careful economic modelling with a new approach: whatever number sounds right to Donald Trump, who is 80 this year and struggles to stay awake during public events.
Truly terrifying. If you showed up in Hollywood a few years ago with this as your pitch you would have been laughed out of the room for being beyond absurd. This timeline sucks.

You have a person who thinks he’s the best there is, there ever was. Of course he believes he can do this, anything, and better than anyone ever has. He’s no fucking Brett Heart.
