Do I want to get used to it? Absolutely not. But this is what America wants and voted for.
Yeah. I'm feeling so much contempt for my country right now, part of me feels like, had I known this about us, I'd have welcomed Trump long ago, because clearly we deserve this. Let's just let everything get so bad they are forced to confront the wretched failure of the society they have wrought.
What's going to happen is in a few years the balance of power will shift, saving them from the worst consequences of the failures of far right policy, and they will learn nothing.
Nope. Let's not any more. Let them fucking have it. Let them fucking destroy everything just so, at the end, they can appreciate that the devastation and misery surrounding them is a monument to their own stupidity and failure.
I sort of understand Trumpists right now. I'm so angry that I'm willing to endure misery as long as I know it's hurting them, too.
They never will.
I highly doubt Trump will do anything that would destabilize the stock market, never forget how self centered he is although his cronies hmmm 🤔
I mean 30% tariffs across the board will be fucking devastating to our economy. I don't know if that will hurt stock prices themselves, but as Americans become poorer, I'm not sure where they will make up the difference. Fire more people, I guess?
Stocks can only go up don't you know the whole thing is basically rigged at this point... But seriously everyone made so much money the last time he was president... Except the people who didn't and all that was basically wiped away with inflation so I expect that to happen again this time ..
Hitler knew what was good for business... War!
Becoming Russia's toy won't exactly help matters along in that regard. Plus then there's the tariffs which he has no idea how they work.
