My prediction is that in that scenario, he blames the Bureau of Labor Statistics, which puts out employment data. Calls them corrupt, run by Democrats, out to get him. Fires people there, insists their numbers cannot be trusted, White House puts out its own fictitious data to make Trump look good

Normally, U.S. Treasuries rally (interest rates go down) in a market downturn, because they are seen as a safe harbor. The fact that this isn’t happening is a serious red flag.

So much of the US Constitution is designed to keep an autocrat from amassing too much power. At this moment, the constitution is failing. Or perhaps our elected representatives are failing the constitution. When a single person can wreck the economy by fiat, something is badly broken.
