I think the revolving door of Trump's administration is about to restart just like during his first term.
How much damage has already been done by Vice-President J. D. Vance in Greenland with his rhetoric on a recent visit, criticizing the 'underinvesting' by Greenland authorities just like reprimanding a child. What has underinvesting in a Sovereign State got to do with the USA?
How much damage has already been created by USA Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth over the defense department leak. He even let his wife, who has nothing to do with the defense team, sit in at important meetings of the defense department, giving her access to knowledge of sensitive information. And Trump just called the leak a 'glitch' for damage control over his fudged appointment.
And Trump's Secretary of the Treasury is in panic mode after the tariff fiasco clobbered Wall Street. His claim that a trade deficit country is in a stronger position than a trade surplus country really takes the cake. If that is so, why is it necessary for the USA to constantly whine about having trade deficits with China and many other countries. Just for fun and laughter when the USA is already in a position of strength? This sycophant is trying to wriggle out of his bad advice and blaming the collapse on Wall Street on DeepSeek, of all reasons, rather than on Trump's reciprocal tariffs. How desperate and ridiculous is his reasoning by saying this, when the collapse had everything to do with Trump's reciprocal tariff rollout and happened just a day after and had nothing to do with the rollout of DeepSeek weeks earlier. The only damage DeepSeek created was to emerge as a credible cheap competitor overwhelming the tens of billion-dollar tech giants of the USA.
Last but not least is the fate of Elon Musk and his fatal moves that is the cause of his Tesla empire's unravelling. Musk will not last long, with all the protest rising all over the USA and even outside the USA. For a man that was never even elected to do such things is really unthinkable.

Trump is manipulating the market to favor his cronies, the top 1% and probably himself, using China as his catalyst. By creating all the ups and downs in the stock market over the course of his first 80 days in office, some people are making mountains of money.
While the top super-rich investors are making money plus upcoming tax cuts, what about the bottom 50% of USA citizens? It is early days yet for the tariffs to take effect, with stockpiling already done earlier, but by the third quarter of 2025, the shit is going to hit the fan for USA consumers.
Some silly Hillbillies are talking about not buying anymore cheap Chinese junks anymore and going for the good stuffs made in the USA. Those manufacturing facilities of the good stuffs are not even born or even conceived yet, and they can wait, maybe a couple of years down the road. Moreover, China did not put a gun to their heads and forced them to buy cheap Chinese goods in the first place. So, by all means go for the expensive 'Made in USA' stuff going forward. Just ban Rednote users from the USA and prevent users from putting up all the comparisons of costs and living standards in China and everything is going to be fine.
The Hillbillies can continue to live under a rock while the world pass them by, like Rip Van Winkle.
