Nonsense.... it's just a way of describing two imperfect choices. What did you end up doing nwm? You voted for Kamala, we know. Why? Because you liked her more. Was she the "perfect" candidate... obviously not So, I don't know what on earth you're driving at. You wanna imply I'm dumb... I could care less about a personal insult. Use your brain to write out some kind of enlightening thoughts or go back to play time
You should put your reading glasses on since I wrote: There's a difference between a person and their world view.
I truly truly truly hope you are wrong here. I agree that based on who Trump is, this is possible though. But I still think Trump was better than the other option. The stuff that has been uncovered now has really been decades in the making because both sides of the government aren't really working for the people. Since I'm also such a huge Bitcoiner, I also think that collapse is practically inevitable. These $2T deficits on $36T debt, with borrowing needed to just pay the interest, really is the stuff that happens in the 9th inning. A lost has already been said about the US not being able to afford the interest payments, but also can't risk cutting rates. China already lost 1/3 of the property values, going from $60T to $40T, so how do you wipe out $20T of wealth without a blow up somewhere? And Germany, which is essentially the heart of European production, is apparently back to 2010 levels in terms of production. I've read that $2T in deficit spending was necessary just to produce $500B in GDP, and much of this GDP is actually just government spending on stupid shift in order to embezzle money for politicians and their donors.. All of this really is the end game now, and I honestly won't be shocked if it happens during Trump's term. So I think all of this re-shoring of production and tariff talk is absolutely necessary to survive the collapse. The ship is already going down, so its time to take stock of what you have, save what you can, and make plans for how to make it to a lifeboat and get on shore. You kind of want to get as lean as you can now, dump all unnecessary clothes, because when you hit the water, it will all drag you down. If you drastically cut government now, if the collapse happens in a few years, at least it will impact less people at that time. And if you manage to bring home some production now, if the collapse happens in a 2 years, you've already got more home grown production up and running. For me personally, the only thing I worry about now isn't an inflationary runaway, but rather a deflationary bust.
this is the pain based on project 2025, which trump claimed to not know about but has had its architects in his campaign.
ad hominem much? Worldview is a person's view. Split hairs much also? Anyway simple (is better) and reality based. Try it yourself.
