it's linked here. feels like Bush/Project for a New American Century.

his treasury secretary wrote this back in October too: https://archive.ph/IYXLe

seems like: crash the market, negotiate individually, new trade deals guaranteeing permanent/ongoing softening of the US Dollar.

i also appreciate all the user's providing analysis of what's going on other than "trump bad" or "trump insane." other than this site, the internet has mostly been a useless pile of shit this past week.

Just yesterday Benjamin Norton said on his show that Trump's goal also seems to be to subsidise his taxes for the rich by having the poors pay for the tariffs. Checks out.

Edit: sorry I meant tax CUTS

yah. the trump tax cuts end on 1/1/2026, but honestly i think this is all bigger than that. they will just money print to keep the tax cuts like they did in 2017+
