Mainstream media, and much of Europe, was clutching their pearls in advance of President Trump's speech at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. Would he use military force to conquer Greenland? Would he slap tariffs on Denmark in retaliation for their unwillingness to make a deal. Ryan illustrates how it was all part of the plan, of Trump's motus operandi for 'The Art of the Deal,' and people who don't understand that by now - never will.
Charlie Berens joins Ryan in the midst of 'The Lost and Found Tour,' featuring his stand-up comedy in Iowa and Illinois this coming weekend. He will be appearing at the Paramount Theatre in Denver on Saturday, April 11 at 8pm MT.
