USA needs a revolution. Trump will bring it on. Trump is going to isolate the USA from the rest of the world. Trump is making enemies everywhere and everyday turning against allies and friends. With Trump in office, the USA does not need enemies. Trump is the enemy.
In the midst of all the madness of Trump against even allies like the EU countries, the South American countries and even neighbors Canada, how does the USA hope to sell its bludgeoning debts and to whom and how does it hope to be able to print more money? The USA can continue printing, but those will become banana notes in the hands of USA citizens. Would they need a revolution to be honest?
What we are witnessing is a self-destruction of the USA. USA Presidents past and present knew that the USA has problems that they cannot solve and are just kicking the can further and further down the road for their successor. Trump could be the final scapegoat inheriting the 'can' that had been kicked down the road for decades. What now is practically unsolvable in the USA? The USA debt is unsolvable and unpayable. The homelessness situation is unsolvable, not to talk about it escalating. Now there is the cost-of-living issue being brought up by Tik Tok refugees accessing Rednote and getting the shock of their lives. Will USA citizens continue to live the lie that they had been fed with for decades?

What Trump is now doing internally is going to create a civil war. What Trump is doing externally is making the USA totally isolated.
ReplyDeleteTrump is going after and removing those FBI agents that investigated him earlier under the Biden Administration and everyone that he has a score to settle. He is also removing massive number of Federal jobs, by the millions, even asking them to resign voluntarily. Imagine the low worker's moral now existing inside those Federal Agencies, with workers just waiting for the hammer to strike. How are these people going to survive after losing their jobs?
Trump is also deporting migrants by the millions, depriving cheap 'slave labor' workers for farmers, food and beverage outlets, city management and cleaning companies like rubbish collectors. Who are going to take over their jobs? The Whites will not want to do dirty jobs paying 'slave wages' and farmers and others will be bankrupted if they are forced to pay more to employ Blacks instead. And their work attitudes may not be suitable for working in such an environment. Even in other jobs, the working attitudes of USA workers left much to be desired as TSMC already found out with local workers in their semiconductor set up in Arizona.
Already, USA farmers are struggling with the Chinese market for their produce shrinking fast. This is going to result in a massive closure of farms and F & B businesses. The only consequence would be more homeless people living on the streets.
Trumps is imposing tariffs on friends and foes alike and retaliation is coming back fast and furious, with Canada and Mexico in the thick of things. If Trump is thinking of isolating the USA from the global community, he is doing a good job indeed. The USA will slowly slide back to the stone age, from first world to no world. China went through that period trying to isolate itself and suffered the consequences.
The irony is that Trump does not really care about any consequences, nor does he understand what his policies are doing to the USA. He is just a bull in a China Shop. Perhaps he is living out the prophecy that the USA will be destroyed in his hands, not during his first term, but in this second term.
Trump's tariffs punishing China is not going to work well for the reason that China has alternative markets to turn to like the Global South. Chinese products can still compete hands down against others outside of the USA and EU. And China has already captured that market for itself.
DeleteThe tariffs may do more harm to allies like Canada and the EU countries, that have little leeway to compete outside of the USA for their exports and have to depend on the USA market. Canada, a close neighbor of the USA should have seen what is coming long ago. But it chooses to grovel at the feet of Trump and later Biden, following the USA in demonizing, sanctioning and threatening China.
The fact that Trump's policies favor neither friend nor foe is significant. Allies were usually treated more favorably in USA administrations in the past, which is why trade agreements were formulated. Trump is basically throwing everything into the dust bin, just like sidelining climate change and calling it a 'hoax'.
China had already been prepared for what Trump is going to do to China, exploring and securing markets for its manufactures beyond the USA and EU. Thinking ahead has its privileges and the early bird catches the worm. Besides securing markets, China had also secured raw materials that are required for its industries and now China fears no trade wars and can retaliate when needed.
As someone commented, China is not fooling around this time and is serious about de-coupling from the USA, whether the USA is feigning it or not. The start of 2025 already saw China unveiling its 6th generation fighter jet, its AI challenge against the USA, its readiness to retaliate head-on against USA challenges whatever it takes. What China is doing is just sending a message to the USA that enough is enough.
