FOX promotes the "Crazy Ivan" theory for the actions of Donald Trump. [View all]

They say, "He's not really crazy - he just pretends he is crazy to achieve his political ends."

They believe that it is good if our enemies are so paranoid of him that they don't know whether he will push the red button or not?

He is just playing the role of "Crazy Ivan".

They believe that he can crash the economy and it will only be "short-term" pain for long-term gain. All their faith is in their Leader, Donald Trump. Never mind that they cannot define how long a "short-term" pain might last?

And if it all fails, he can always blame the "libs". And FOX will help him in every way possible to convince people that "Crazy Ivan" is not to blame.

If he lies about his criminal business deals, and his acceptance of bribes from foreign enemies, then it is all part of grand strategy, a chess game that only "Crazy Ivan" can understand.

We are left with one question.

Who is really "crazy"?
