some educated thoughts are herein presented about the mango mussolini's trade wars;

According to the great military thinker, Maj. Gen. J.F.C. Fuller, ‘the object of war is not victory.  It is to achieve political goals.’
Too bad President Donald Trump does not read books.  He has started economic wars against China, Russia, Iran, Cuba and Venezuela without any clear strategic objective beyond inflating his ego as the world’s premier warlord and punishing them for disobedience.
Trump’s wars are economic.  They deploy the huge economic and financial might of the United States to steamroll other nations that fail to comply with orders from Washington.  Washington’s motto is ‘obey me or else!’  Economic wars are not bloodless.  Imperial Germany and the Central Powers were starved into surrender in 1918 by a crushing British naval blockade.
Trade sanctions are not making America great, as Trump claims.  They are making America detested around the globe as a crude bully.  Trump’s efforts to undermine the European Union and intimidate Canada add to this ugly, brutal image............https://www.lewrockwell.com/2019/09/eric-margolis/fools-war-over-trade/
