Trump constantly touts his own business genius. It may be the largest pillar supporting his self esteem. The tariffs could lead to a stock market crash. This prospect likely has haunted Trump relentlessly for the past few weeks, even if he puts on a brave face. No president, let alone a self-described business genius, wants a Great Depression named after them. If to avoid another stock market crash it took eating a bag of worms and handing Alaska to China, Trump would probably do it.
