I am considered the expert in my office for what I do and I am making half of it up as I go.

My experience is the exact opposite. Experts underestimate themselves.

In my experience it's like a 45/45/10 split lol. 45% think they know literally everything and have Dunning Kruger running through their veins, other 45% all have imposter syndrome and don't think they know anything and are afraid someone is gonna find out and then the rest are actually at peace and fuck those people lol. Must be nice to be at peace!

Doctors, rocket scientists, lawyers, etc; anyone with a higher education in one field often times believe that means they know everything about everything else in every other field. Not always the case and some will realize they are doing it at times and have egg on their face about it but that's why cults usually have a lot of highly educated people who join up and are brainwashed super easy.

To be fair, lawyers have to learn a shit lot in any area they practice in. I sometimes joke I have an associates in hydrogeology from all the groundwater cases I'm involved in.

We weren't paying the bribe fee to get in anyway so this is really peak "you can't break up with me, I'm breaking up with you!"

Next he's gonna demand Carney give him the standing ovation he got at the WEF.

Sounds like we probably need to invade Canada to show you how peaceful we are.

LOL, same shit he pulled with that oil company. They came out and said Venezuela wasn’t worth investing in, and the very next day he’s like, “I didn’t like their answer, so I’m not letting them do it.”

Yeah, dumbshit, they literally just told you they didn’t want to. Absolute fucking child.

He does know that pengiuns only live in the Southern Hemisphere right ?!?

No of course he doesn't know that

[arus2001]

I think he's more cool with embracing something under 4 feet tall.

[Cyn]

Maybe he's The Penguin.

[Tyrath]

I'll be ok with that if he goes off and dies alone

Trump is now threatening Canada with 100% tarrifs, if they make a deal with China.

Praying for this ice storm to just crush the White House.

Crazy how repeatedly fucking over our allies makes them look for deals with our rivals. Shocking, right. If we even make it through this, I feel bad for whoever has to clean it up. It is hard to negotiate when the rest of the world knows the U.S. can hand the economy to an unhinged dumbfuck who tears up agreements on a whim.

The only reason any of this worked for as long as it did is because of the last 60 plus years of postwar trade, where the U.S. sat at the center, set the rules, and anchored everything to the dollar. That stability made deals possible. Once you prove you are unreliable, countries hedge, diversify, and cut you out. And when the dollar takes a real hit and loses leverage, you do not get to dictate terms anymore. You get treated like just another unstable partner.

Just a few days ago wasn’t Trump praising the deal saying it was a smart deal for Canadians? I guess that was before he got his fee fees hurt by the prime minister’s speech in Davos

[Rhyis.]

that is correct

Nah, he just needed something to say about Tariffs this weekend so that markets drop on Monday/Tuesday and then bounce back on Wednesday when he TACOs
