Trump thinks he can threaten Putin to stop attacking Ukraine by using two nuclear submarines trying to make Putin pee in his pants. In geopolitical horse trading, they say that everyone should know for a fact that you cannot threaten Putin. Russia tells the USA it has more nuclear subs than the USA and all the resources to make more. In fact, Russia has more nukes than the USA. Only problem is whether Trump knows it or not.
I believe Trump is at the end of his tethers and is desperate, with everything crumbling around him. The deportation of undocumented immigrants is coming back to haunt him as well, with his wife Melania also an immigrant allowed into USA using dubious means that Trump was able to carry out with his wealth. Some people in the USA are calling for Melania and Baron to be deported like those immigrants.
The jobs data statistics for May, June and July was substantially reduced by hundreds of thousands, clearly showing that the USA job creation gloated about were all baloney and highly inflated figures, as was in the past. For releasing the reality, the head of the Labor Statistics Department lost his job for telling the truth. Truth is no longer acceptable for Trump. Lying is the norm nowadays. For people like Scott Bessen, Pete Hegseth and Howard Lutnik, I think they knew what they had to do, by lying about everything just to make Trump happy.
Is that a recipe for how an Empire is going to collapse? But I think the Trump administration does not think so. Let us enjoy the show for while it lasts.

Now that the cat is out of the bag with regard to how the USA plucked job creation figures from the air, like printing its banana notes, how to put the genie back into the bottle. Trump can call his Labor Statistics chief as 'rigging' the figures. We know who is to be believed. Now anything coming out of the Labor Statistics and job creation figures is going to be just jobs plucked out of the air to be adjusted later on. Trump will find someone willing to fudge the figures for him to gloat.
We know for a fact that the USA is leaking jobs with the farming sector in trouble finding workers to take on jobs formerly done by immigrants, the food and beverage sector losing jobs due to deportation of immigrant workers and the retail sector finding difficulty to cope with the tariff increases despite even passing on the tariffs to consumers but losing customers and closing outlets. On top of that, we know that thousands of jobs are also lost by the Government due to cut back in Federal funding. How many USA citizens are going to do the job of farm workers and food and beverage outlets with immigrant paychecks and long hours?
Trump can only gloat about so much winning in his negotiations. As they say, Trump only knows how to add, not to subtract. He is clueless when it comes to math. His expertise is running companies into the ground with bankruptcies, nothing else. The USA would be Trump's crowning glory should it be dismantled by Trump in his second term, a prophecy not carried out during his first term. If that happens, you can be sure Trump will again blame Joe Biden.
Same as sinkieland job data. When ask about "sillyporean" employment status, the ministar will tell you "resident" employment is sui sui. When asked about how many job created for "sillyporean", they will said many jobs created for "everyone". They are good at Not telling "sillyporean" what they wanted to know.
Sinkieland's policy is trying to be 'sui sui buay chow chui'. Singaporeans just want to know how much the next tranche of chicken wing is going to be. Anything else they comforted themselves that the Government is taking care of it, so why worry. Even making babies has to depend on the Government subsidies.
