Show Notes
Trump’s own administration just confirmed that he lied to Time Magazine when he falsely claimed that they did “200 deals” since announcing the failed Tariffs and hit the pause button, as it turns out he also lied about having a phone call with China about the trade embargo, as the world wide supply chain collapses, with 40% less cargo coming into US Ports in the first ships in since the Chinese embargo was announced. Michael Popok takes a hard look at Trump’s lies and what it means for the US economy and his poll numbers.
