President Trump's suggestion to French President Emmanuel Macron that he should lead France out of the European Union is emblematic of why President Trump isn't responsible enough to lead America. The European Union is an alliance that brings dramatic positive economic benefit to hundreds of millions of people living in European Union Countries; one example of this is that if you didn't have the European Union you wouldn't have the euro the European Union common currency each of the countries using the euro would have to resort to their own national currency which in many cases would result in the country's currency being of dramatic less value than the euro meaning the buying power for people of that country would be much less and so their standard of living would be much less! Anyone with common sense knows that if France left the European Union it would create a domino effect of countries leaving the EU thus resulting in the European Union collapsing. A U.S. President advocating for this result is acting reprehensible beyond words!
Such behavior by President Trump is a red flag that he is not responsible enough to lead the U.S. to solve America's trade problem. There is no skill set that one can acquire from books like the "Art Of The Deal" to bring about the ending of the outrageous trade deficit with China it cannot reliably be done with the President's current tool box. America needs Congressional legislation signed into law that not only widens the President's powers giving him more than thread bare authority based on a stretch for national security concerns but expansive power on imposing tariffs and quotas to solve this problem and not a discretionary duty to solve trade imbalance problems but a mandatory duty, American workers and their families deserve nothing less!
