He had many ways and tools he could have used to go about strengthening the economy, but he choose the most destructive path, because that is the plan, work quickly so people do not know what has hit them.

Bannon stated it very clearly when interviewed. Funny cannot embed TikTok videos.
He states "it is inspiring"
Let that sink in.

I agree.
I think a mature approach would have been for him to consult Canadian "specialists" like yourself who support Alex Jones and fringe conspiracy theories so you don't get disappointed when he cuts the gravy train from you.
That would have been a more mature way of doing things.

Now the Donald wants the supreme court to block the district court judge's ruling that Abrego Garcia must be returned to the US. This has to be one of his weakest moves yet. The guy had a court order saying that he was not to be returned to El Salvador, they shipped him back anyway, they admitted it was a mistake and was their own fault, now they won't even man up and take responsibility or lift a finger to get him back. Absolutely pathetic.

Yes, that is how the court system works. This review of HS civics class has been brought to you by the same guy who said "what me worry" about the collapse of the US stock market.

Types of oil, you refine different products from different types of oil.
Of course. But everyone needs sweet crude and natural gas, and in abundance. And we have other ally nations that can supply the other. We never need to do business with geopolitical foes, and neither do our supposed allies.

Exactly and once again that machinery cannot be changed over night.
It takes investment and a sense that the market is stable.
Agreed. The process should be more slow like Canadian molasses to give you guys more time to throw a wrench in operation #TrumpWarpSpeed.

People want simplistic solutions to complex decade long problems, like manufacturing jobs returning within a matter of months.
Sure foreign companies make a deal here and there, that is not ground up American innovation and production.
People in the US want this but it wont happen in the next several decades. It will take about the same amount of time for the other nations to trust the US again as it did for them to begin to trust Germany,Italy and Japan after ww2. First they will file for divorce.

I think what many miss about Europe,Canada and the others is that at this point the US goes from one set of policies to another set as quickly as we go from Republican to Democrat presidents. One POTUS reverses agreements made by one POTUS then the election comes and the new POTUS reverses everything the one before them did. On again,off again,on again off again why bother with the US at all regardless of which party win's when it comes to defense and economy it's the same as hiring an employee who calls in sick every other day of the week. It wont matter who wins next time it's at it's end it seems.

Regardless even if true, several decades is better than doing nothing.

But it won't take several decades because the tax breaks have just been passed as permanent and reestablished.

If the Rhinos and democrats don't screw up the extra tax breaks in Congress then you will see more money in those areas.

Over 50 countries are already ready to negotiate which means fair trade will help buffer the lag time for domestic manufacturing.

Today the EU is also ready to negotiate 0% tariffs.

We have seen the stock market drop giving people fear but it seems to be purposefully planned as a means to drop interest rates and lower mortgage prices.

According to Thomas Kralow,

(a serial entrepreneur, professional trader and hedge fund manager, an influencer with over 1,500,000 followers across platforms, and founder of an online learning platform for traders and investors 'University Grade Trading') Education'.

“Trump is setting up a stock market crash.

The us government needs to refinance $7 trillion in debt over the next 6 months.

Trump doesn't want this done at current 10-year yields.

This is why he's letting the stock market drop while pushing bond prices higher.

As bond prices rise, yields fall, making it cheaper for the us government to refinance its debt.

Lower yields will also pressure the fed to cut rates, which is ultimately bullish for risk assets.

Short-term pain, long-term gain.”

Either we are seeing a well thought out strategy. A major gamble. Or a clueless individual that may lead us into further economic pain.

So far everything I have been seeing, it makes sense and seems to be very logical. I'm praying that Congress can pass the further tax cuts that Trump wants passed.

The lack of stability in the US is definitely a problem. Once the system and ideology and lawfulness is reset MAGAUSA for the duration ought to be part of the stability others can rely upon again.
