It seems even way back then he didn't understand how the world works.

He talks about Kuwait and how Kuwait should be kicking back 25% of their sales back to the US. It doesn't work this way - at all. If the United States says "You have to kick back 25% to the US" Kuwait will just sell to the Chinese. While this might not be a big deal if it's only Kuwait, but if you start talking about the top ten oil producers in the world (then) suddenly the oil supply of the United States is threatened. Not only would the price of our gas sky rocket, which would have a huge impact on our economy, but would also have a huge impact on our military strategy - our military runs on oil.

Why is Trump fighting the Federal Government tooth and nail over every last dime of his taxes. Why isn't he kicked back 25% back to the United Sates government?
