    The trump regime was designed to TANK the US economy so that stocks, businesses, and industries can be bought by billionaires at rock bottom prices.

    All is going according to plan.

      Its Russia in the 90s all over again. Must be a coincidence that the Russian mafia-turned-regime they’re so chummy with, got its foot in the door and secured its power through an almost identical move.

      Im wondering if America will have its equivalent of the 1999 Apartment bombings.

      Even the wealthy have to think about what is happening right now. To have their company’s value go to shit overnight isn’t winning him any fans.

      No, that wasn’t the point.

      There were 2 goals:

      1. Cut spending to 0 so they could cut taxes (cap gains to 0)

      2. Isolate the US from the rest of the world, this is what Putin cares about the absolute most. If we’re out of the way he sees Russia as unstoppable (which is stupid, they can’t beat any country with functioning tractors).
