If the US loses it's Reserve Currency status because too many international investors are existing it, more printing will directly translate to Inflation.
So whilst technically the US can't go bankrupt, it most certainly can end up with Hyperinflation and all its problems if the printers start going full steam (metaphorically speaking, since nowadays most currency is digital) to stop the bankrupting of the US following Trump/Musk fuckery and foreigners (as well as larger local investors) refuse to buy those new Dollars and actually accelerate their the exiting from positions in USD (and that's not just going to be cash positions but also USD-Denominated assets such as Stocks, Bonds and Treasuries) which seems to have been started happening already judging by news such as this.
Oil being priced in dollars is a primary driver of why other countries need to buy dollars. I'm worried we're about to find out what happens when OPEC decides to start allowing oil to be traded in euros or yuan.
I’ve stopped assuming these guys will account for facts, nor that they keep the “no” finance guys around when making decisions.
I think 100% of decisions are made by Trump in the Oval Office based on the object permanence of the last person or tweet he’s seen.
