Ppppffftt.
you don’t know me. I’m not one to boast and gloat however let’s just say I am ok. Picking up some tones of resentment from you a living hard life, hope wellness and prosperity for you.
You have some strange fantasies and desires.

I just want you to know that when, not if, you suffer, you fully deserve it.

Fucking grifters.
A good article on what happened on bond markets this week that forced Trump’s hand. Basically the suspicion is that foreign holders of US debt started selling those bonds, which resulted in rise in yields.

Maybe.
My guess is what will happen is what always happens: they will be hanged.
Go against economic interests of people powerful enough to start a countermovement and you're fucked. Doesn't matter if you're king or president.
Hell, they might just shoot him in broad daylight now. No one will care.

Too skinny. Anorexic Trump is scarier than normal Trump.
It's not even just a matter of businesses that depend on global trade.
The U.S. is a massive consumer of rare earth minerals to do much of anything in defense or energy. And China holds all the marbles. No amount of "onshoring" U.S. jobs will create necessary mineral deposits in the U.S. out of thin air.

That's the biggest story of all, really. Normally in turbulent market conditions you see global money follow "safety". The targets for safety normally include things like gold but also U.S. Treasuries.
The difference this time is people are dumping U.S. treasuries, recognizing that the U.S is the source of chaos and not stability. That makes the U.S. T-bill rates rise to attract reluctant buyers. In effect raising interest rates and increasing the U.S.'s cost of borrowing on its massive national debt.
It also means Trump is accelerating global de-dollarization: the very thing that he threatened BRICS countries over.

I will give credit where credit is due, and I am kinda reaching here. Trump is sowing unnecessary chaos by hitting the U.S. self-destruct button over his delusions of how economics work.
But I hate it when people fault politicians for "flip flopping". If something isn't working, everyone should be encouraged to change tactics and not be bound to a suicide pact.
