    Pretty much all famines were politically engineered, and it's hard to think of a popular one?

    Nobodies ever destroyed a thriving economy as fast as Trump has here. He doesn't care about young Americans at all. Just a matter of how long before someone(s) puts a stop to all of this and limits the damage inflicted. Trump thinks he's helping the US auto sector, when he's actually hurting it. He'll still insist on the tax cuts for rich people even though most economists are projecting massive govt deficits coming. Debt defaults and foreclosures are already growing in the US.

    Trump has his layers of wants, all for him. He wants TikTok badly because with that he can reach into the minds of the young with influence campaigns. Kids are inherently more open minded but that's not entirely immune to psychological engineering.

    I just finished watching the UK four part series 'Adolescence' which is brilliantly filmed as four 'oner' one shot scenes. Its a synthesis of several youngster killings recently, an undertone of the effects of Andrew Tate brainwashing.

    Elon Hates it :) His attacks are lies as it was on production before a particular killing he referenced, saying it was not Tate influenced.

    Anyway, there are ways in and TikTok is very important to Trump, so he is using the auto tariffs to get it, and damn the fallout for others.

    China tariffs may be cut to seal TikTok sale, Trump says

    Trump's engineered Recession becomes more certain, still unpopular. Businesses are now forced to lay off staff and hold off on projects. Trump probably plans on hitting the golf course tomorrow and design the tax cuts for the rich.

    LOL Trump was in fact out golfing today rather than dealing with the carnage he created. Why is he not working today, or is just what his clueless supporters are supposed to do ?
