    Now all of these people converge on Mar-a-Lago and burn it to the ground. Preferably with Trump and Musk inside.

        Calls to violence you mean?

        You want a circlejerk with no barriers, whereas I wish we could discuss the reasons why hes putting in tariffs and cutting spending. Project 2025 versus ETS2 for instance, or the fact China is buying fewer and fewer treasuries every year; leading to higher borrowing costs on leveraged economies globally as money is sucked into the US, to fund the spending they also cant afford.

        Even the global demographics look bleak given the amount of debt we’ve taken on, and people are still living in an MMT fantasyland as they roll over their mortgages from 2% to 6%.

          Yeah those tariffs on Canada are certainly going to help that, and he certainly never said they’d be lifted if Canada became a, what was it? Ah yes, “beloved 51st state”

          As for 6% mortgages, that’s not a particularly high number actually. If you went in a 2% expecting that to last forever, maybe.
