Obviously Trump has no plan B. Obviously, he does not at all allow that having a preliminary scenario, it may not happen.
Apparently, the group of like-minded incompetents around Trump, whose only function is to glorify his intellectual qualities, has not played out the option of failure and problems at all.
This was commented on by Mario Gavrilov.
Apparently, the feeling that "we hold all the cards", one of Trump's favorite and not very many thoughts, has noisily let out a sigh of relief.
Yesterday, Trump hit the sky with tariffs on China.
Soon after that, he put on another clownish performance by installing miners in full combat gear, with helmets, headlamps and dressed in work clothes, using them as a backdrop for the historic revival of the coal sector.
And a few hours later - oh surprise. Servicing the American debt has become more expensive. It has risen dramatically in price.
There is silence in these markets, but with a high degree of probability we can assume that China is selling off.
Because the brilliant Donald and his wise advisors did not calculate at all that China holds a significant portion of the national debt. And now, like Canada, the Chinese are selling off. This means that instead of paying less to service their gigantic debt, American taxpayers will pay more. Immediately, immediately. For example, a small illustration of the impact on the personal finances of American citizens. Mortgages will rise in price as a result of Trump's circus.
You want a house - you pay more.
While they wait for the billions of dollars promised by Trump to pour in, everyone will have to dig into their pockets to pay for his extreme self-confidence that he is the sole master of the world.
US government bonds played him a bit like gold.
They were a safe haven under which you could hide during financial crises. Until yesterday. Trump is doing to the US what Musk has already done to his own business - destroying trust.
He is destroying partnerships. This is the most valuable capital.
Tariff revenue will come. Soon. However, consumption will shrink because goods will become more expensive. There will probably be some investments that will bring in some income.
In years. But every American will have to add extra dollars to their debt payments immediately. Because Trump is living like God. And he refuses to accept the basic law that for every force there is an opposite.
And that nothing in this life is only positive or only negative.
Except for birth and death. Even when you "hold all the cards".
