The trump regime was designed to TANK the US economy so that stocks, businesses, and industries can be bought by billionaires at rock bottom prices.
All is going according to plan.
No, that wasn't the point.
There were 2 goals:
Cut spending to 0 so they could cut taxes (cap gains to 0)
Isolate the US from the rest of the world, this is what Putin cares about the absolute most. If we're out of the way he sees Russia as unstoppable (which is stupid, they can't beat any country with functioning tractors).
Its Russia in the 90s all over again. Must be a coincidence that the Russian mafia-turned-regime they're so chummy with, got its foot in the door and secured its power through an almost identical move.
Im wondering if America will have its equivalent of the 1999 Apartment bombings.
...what were those

Even the wealthy have to think about what is happening right now. To have their company's value go to shit overnight isn't winning him any fans.
I think a lot of them are ideological psychos. Saw an interview with Forbes magazine founder, and he's giddy about these tariffs because he thinks they'll enable tax cuts. I don't think he cares if his shares tank or whatever, as long as he doesn't have money "taken away" from him to help the poors.
A lot of people might decide to violently resist such an eventuality. Things can quickly go off the rails.
Remember that despite the rule of law no longer applying to the rich and powerful, the laws of physics continue to apply.
I don't see a lot of evidence to suggest that'll happen.
