President Donald Trump insisted he loves inflation caused by his war in Iran and claimed he tanked the stock market on purpose.The 79-year-old president spoke to reporters Wednesday in the Oval Office, where he was asked about year-over-year inflation hitting a three-year high of 4.2 percent last mo...
I’ve been thinking this basically the whole time with the second administration. It’s the most conspiracy oriented I’ve ever been, but I genuinely think there is a non zero chance that the entire goal of this administration has been to crash the dollar and world economy to force the globe into a position where digital currencies take over nation state derived currency as the foundation of global markets. I’d say I’m 5-10% confident this is the case, which is very high.
That their goal is to destabilize not just the world, but the very concept of nation-states to be replaced with a corporate/privately owned concept of a nation state or state level actor.
I know there are specific conspiratorial threads on this concept but I e intentionally avoided looking into those. I think there is ample evidence at the surface only to have this kind of suspicion.
Occam’s Razor continues to be that the orange pedophile simply did not want those pesky Epstein files out
If we were to apply Occam’s Razor fully it would be.
A doddering old imbecile that has had a clear mental decline and has a history of terrible decisions is continuing to be in mental decline and make terrible decisions.
Absolutely. Occam’s razor would be his Wharton professor was right, he’s the “dumbest goddamn student he had ever” and he absolutely believed tariffs were magical weapons to both make the economy strong and enrich himself, that he was invincible and immune to repercussions per usual re Epstein, and that as usual he could use sociopathic vengeance and corruption to just fake it the entire way to being the greatest president in history, and that the nation would probably not only put his face on Mr Rushmore, but also make him king willingly.
Correct
Yeah, before 2016, he said he was going to run the government like one of his businesses. Then he started to run it like one of his businesses. Now it’s running like one of his businesses. I think that’s the most parsimonious explanation.
I still remember people telling me the country needed Trump because it needed to be run like one of his businesses. “You mean used as a half-assed vehicle for his own vanity that gets stripped for parts and then driven into bankruptcy the moment he loses interest?”
Seriously, the man failed to sell alcohol, meat, and gambling. Those have been three of the four easiest things to turn a profit on for most of human history (and he doesn’t have the body for the fourth). If you gave me a distillery, a beef farm, and a casino, I would be a millionaire inside a couple of years—and I’m the worst salesman I know. And somehow he also became a millionaire after starting all three of those businesses, which is decidedly less of a flex for someone who started out as a billionaire.
he’s a russian asset and he’s running the whole country into the ground because that’s what putin wants
Russia is small time, Trump is working for international concerns (probably unawares)
Terrible decisions for the free world, but he and his buddies are making bank.
The people around him, for sure.
But him? I remember a few years ago, someone did an analysis of his assets and what he inherited from his father and determined that if he had done literally nothing, he would have had more money.
I remember reading about that too, but that was before he was pres. Now the whole family seems to have cash to burn.
I don’t think it has to be either/or. The buffoon is running a circus, but his administration is trying to install themselves in permanent control of everything
I don’t think it’s the entire goal, but I do think that it is a goal of certain people in this admin. I think Steven Miran’s section in project 2025 outlined a way to crash the value of the USD.
And it’s definitely for the purpose of creating company scrip.
I had very similar thoughts, but I think now that’s is just old fashioned greed and they’re doing all they can to collect as much money as possible. They don’t care if the American economy crashes because they’re not depending on it. A lot of useful idiots are sucked into the maelstrom and will suffer with the rest of us, but the insanely rich will be fine.
It’s also not just one thing. Some may want to bury the Epstein files, but the rest of them just want to be insanely rich. Everyone has a different reason to be in on the grift. And they do it because they believe they can get away with it. I don’t think it’s much more complicated than that.
