Krasnov's Tariffs Are A Mob Boss' Protection Racket

This is just my opinion so don't ask me for any links.

Trump imposes tariffs on pretty much every nation, except Russia, and then he runs a protection racket scheme on them. The countries that send him suitcases of money get their tariffs reduced depending upon the size of the suitcase.

Nothing else makes sense to me. To me it's Occam's Razor, Krasnov ran for president to become the richest man on earth.

It will even apply to people in the US. The Big ranchers and farmers who voted for Krasnov, who lose their markets because of Krasnov's tariffs will be reimbursed billions of dollars, just like he did during his last term. People who didn't vote for Krasnov will of course not be reimbursed.

This link I did provide can throw a wrench in Krasnov's plan:

This clown can't even do criming well with it all blowing up in his face. In any other world, he'd be in prison or buried in an unmarked ditch in the pine barrens.
