DANES SEE HITLER WAGING TARIFF WAR

Increases Virtually Ban Their Cattle-Scandinavian Papers Call for Reprisals.

Wireless to THE NEW YORK TIMES.

    Diffrence is Donald will die in office.

    Vance will take over and give the illusion of moderating things. Throwing token gestures out to playcate the masses and throw up a smokescreen to make anyone who sees what will happen look like a tinfoil hat nutjob.

    And then he will be so much worse.
