I think he's doing it on purpose but not for the reason most think, I think Trump knows America can't compete going forrward with China and if we're not careful india will take over us within 20 years also. I think he wants to tank the economy to change the american mindset and force companies to produce in America it's all by force and he knows the past when they tried to do the same thing doesn't work, Americans are kinda entitled...
He wants more blue collar, less white collar, most married poor living in smaller spaces alot like China does now, China got like 400 sqt apartments with whole families in them, a large blue collar sector, and alot of poor folks who know it won't get no better, tons of chinese women (older) that just stay home and cook and clean all day and men working low wage jobs china just has better healthcare to take care of the people.
I think Trump knows it's a wrap going forward unless we change how we think, the GOP is calculated from the grifters to the politicians they all share a similar message, the real issue is how are Americans going to cope with less and like it and that's what I think the plan is.
Liberalism is kinda unrealistic, it's a fantasy in a sense it sounds great on paper but tge resources aren't there to make everyone happy, we see what it did to us already and our low marriage, high wedlock rate. It doesn't last, it's good for the hustlers to sell dreams but they know like crypto youg et in early then dip before the block gets hot.
