And yes this isn’t the most monstrous thing trump has done. Hanging Ukraine out to dry is unconscionable, but this post was about economics. The thing trump promised to be good about and he was believed. He’s nuking our economy from orbit and no one can help us. It’s as though he wants to hurt everyone “beneath” him.
He does. The 2020 election loss was a huge narcissistic injury and, as anyone with a narcissist in their circle knows, he’ll never get over that rejection. Everyone must pay.
