The American President is a manager(for the people of the USA)
no more no less
#Congress writes the laws
The #courts interpret & apply the laws to the best of their abilities
Nobody in a civilized society gets everything they want
It's all & can only ever be a series of compromises

We don't need Ronald Reagan to tell us that #tariffs are uncompetitive, they destroy creativity & promote sluggishness
