“The president single-handedly wiped out Americans’ retirement savings overnight and subjected businesses to intense whiplash with his increasingly erratic and chaotic policies that continue to drive consumer and business uncertainty.”

    Maybe that’s the plan? Start a trade war that will inevitably lead to a real war? It sets a lot more precedent for the lean on all of the marshal law type powers he’s chasing after.

      The U.S. does make a lot of money at war. Kinda makes you wonder why few of Leon’s federal spending cuts have been in the DOD? 🤔

        They don’t make as much money when they are fighting a war. Especially on American soil.

        Yeah but how could they do money alone? Isn’t world economy a multiplayer game? They cut all their allies… I don’t think value can be created in a vacuum; where would they get the war money from?
