  8. He has a little more credibility than someone who would spin a yarn, but it comes across like he sent some baaaaaaaad e-mails, when he doesn't fire right back with the truth of it: "I did a baaaaad thing" or "I did no such thing." Instead, he wheedles. Makes his "Trump needs Trump guys," which was suspect out of the gate, look totally self-serving. I generally don't like guys auditioning for top jobs on mainstream media. I feel the same way about seeing Digenova appear on FOX right before his hiring, and take all the correct (Trumpster) partisan stances. But it takes all kinds, and Digenova doesn't mince words. Can't tell for sure how much he's posturing for advancement (which he certainly obtained), or speaking in his authentic voice. I disagree with Colling, totally on Trump needing or not needing Trumpsters in his cabinet. I think Trump gets more sympathy from most folks for the leaks, and it plays in his favor. If he really were this evil genius everybody's putting out there, he would've clamped down on leaks like a vise. Instead, he welcomes people who DISagree with him, and allows a certain level of unruliness, which I think is smart, even though it offends aristocrats in the Beltway. I respect the economic advisor resigning over tariffs. And Trump probably does, too. It was clear Cohen wasn't a rubber-stamp, and that's a good thing to see. Stuck to his principles and resigned. Beats the hell out of a yes-man who thwarts you behind the scenes, or worse, feeds the worst of your tendencies. It's a position Trump took in which government is very much intervening in a nationalistic way to preserve a strategic industry. Yeah, it's fascist. But we're in an environment full of fascist competitors, giving their strategic industries an unfair competitive advantage over our own. That's not a violation of Adam Smith. It's an act of self-defense against fascism, abroad. The savings our consumers realize for steel and aluminum products by buying Chinese dumpings at a net loss to their economy, but by putting our guys out of business, they can corner the market. We can't have that, because China might not always be Mr. Nice Guy.
