Blood for the blood God.
No one cares about rich people losing money. If they were smart, they would have sold their stocks when Krasnov was sworn in.
He was already talking about fucking shit up with tariffs while campaigning.
Smart people don't sell stocks and shares when markets crash. They buy instead.
So much fud out there apparently. Time will tell how bad this gets, but this is pretty darn bad.
The Kennedy's made their fortune shorting the US economy during the Great depression.
Everything Trump has done has been calculated. I'd be willing to bet my left testicle that his gambling most of his fortune on heavily leverages shorts. He's trying to create the greatest possible depression because that will make him the most amount of money.
He knows exactly when he will cut his bullshit so he will settle his short right before making the announcement. Then with all the money he essentially stole from the population he will then buy up large chunks of the economy (and so will his buddies).
Once capital is even more heavily controlled by the upper classes the only recourse left will be violent revolution. All speculation. But that's what I would be doing if I was trump trying to install a true autocracy.
I agree with everything you're saying, except that someone higher up is telling Krasnov what to do and pulling the strings. He's not smart enough to come up with this himself. Republicans do this every time they're in office.
