[ed. Ugh. Actual U.S. Commerce Secretary. I'd say this guy is the absolute worst but there's too much competition. Remember when he told us his mother-in-law wouldn't complain about missing a monthy Social Security check, and that only "fraudsters" would? What isn't shown here are his next few words..."and it's going to be automated. And the trade craft of America, is going work on them and fix them." Robots presumably. You can view the video here if you want. See also: Wall Street Bursts With Anger Over Tariff ‘Stupidity’ (NYT/DNYUZ); and, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick’s Most Lunkheaded Moments (NY Mag).]
