This is a clip from wiki that explains what a nut he is and another nut,Trump, took his advice.
n the Trump administration, Navarro was a hawkish advisor on trade, as he encouraged Trump to implement trade protectionist policies.[14][15][16][17] In explaining his role in the Trump administration, Navarro said that he is there to "provide the underlying analytics that confirm [Trump's] intuition [on trade]. And his intuition is always right in these matters."[7] In 2018, as the Trump administration was implementing trade restrictionist policies, Navarro argued that no countries would retaliate against U.S. tariffs "for the simple reason that we are the most lucrative and biggest market in the world". Shortly after the implementation of the tariffs, other countries did implement retaliatory tariffs against the United States, leading to trade wars.[18][19]
That all worked out well.
