Add the loss of buying power from a weak dollar with a higher cost of goods from tariffs and throw in massive job losses from Trump's actions and AI and you get the misery of stagflation. A problem the Fed has no tools to address

Their goal is the same as what many PE firms do but at a nation level. Suck out all of the value and funds while leveraging up the country. Blow out the deficit while walking away with the wealth of the American people and then exit, dumping it on the rest of us

MAGA voters will soon wake up to realize that there is a third party, the Oligarch-Fascist Party that is running the country. MAGAs didn't vote for them and the Party doesn't care a whit about them. Pity 1/
