3. He, or rather the P25 people who are actually making the policy, are doing exactly what they want.

None of this is by accident or the result of his stupidity or “insanity.” This is what they want to do, they’re making out like bandits with the tarriffs, manipulating the markets, war spending and skimming/grifting the tax dollars from this war. They’ll make money hand over fist in a recession, probably more than they would in a good economy.

Yeah, it’s horrible that anyone would support this but they didn’t make any secret of what they were going to do. This is what the ruling class does, extract every dollar possible from the working class and take it for themselves.

One day, and unfortunately things are going to have to get so bad there is no other choice, regular working people will see through the game and do what needs to be done.

It’s shame we’re not doing it now while there is still food to be had. But that’s America for you, the most propagandized people in the world.
