Emperor Trump is the most valued President of the USA. Like football, he scored goals, plenty of goals. No American president has ever brought in so much money for America. Armed with his famous Art of the Steal, oops, oops, Deal, he can simply strut into any capital of American allied countries or crony countries and ask, demand or coerce to be paid in the billions and trillions. This is the easiest way of collecting revenue for a country. This is not much different from the mafia Godfathers collecting protection money.
And who are his willing victims? American allies and cronies of course. Top on the list are the rich Arab countries. Next on the list are Japan, South Korea and Taiwan. No European country is in the list of willing payers so far. Maybe they have contributed enough for the Ukraine War. Or maybe they are already broke. Britain has been told to buy up more Treasury bills as an option when no one else is buying.
But America is still broke, dead broke. The national debt is now US$38 trillion and adding more than US$2 trillion annually. The interest payment is more than US$1 trillion a year. How many countries have a GDP of US$1 trillion? For comparison, Singapore's GDP is about US$600 billion. Brazil's is US$2 trillion. US$1 trillion to many countries is oh la la!
The Americans are still looking for more suckers to milk. The next likely targets will be the crony countries, especially those that are considered rich and have money to pay. And those that owed their security and prosperity to the American Empire. Trump is sending out his ambassadors demand for payments.
Collecting protection money is very much easier than printing COEs. The amount asked by mafia chief Trump is no small chain. Arab countries paid in the trillions. Japan paid US$550 billion, South Korea US$350 billion. Silly country like Taiwan paid a few hundred billions, supposedly for buying American military junks that would not be delivered. And the silly Taiwan govt is going to pay more, trying to pass a bill in their parliament to pay another tens of billions to buy military toys to fight China.
The lucky countries would be those Mickey Mouse like the Philippines that really have no money to pay up. Trump only needs to open his mouth, and money in the billions and trillions will flow into the USA. He is a real magician, a very intelligent man. The most intelligent American president in the history of America. He made more money than Nvidia, Microsoft, Warren Buffett, Bill Gates, Jensen Huang etc etc. Now you know who is the smartest man in America. Making mountains of money without sweating his small stuff. No need to be a top engineer or scientist or Wall Street punter. No need to have a string of degrees and PhDs. A D grade first degree is good enough.

Never underestimate Trump. He pulled off six bankruptcies and is on the verge of pulling off another big one. Everything in the USA is crashing. Job creations are crashing as farms collapse, retail outlets close, food and beverage outlets fold and tourist stayed away. It cannot be any other way, no matter how Trump and his sycophants try to spin and flog a dying horse.
Tariff collections are crashing too as countries just ignored his extortion letter, even having the audacity to thank them hypocritically for what Trump is doing to them. This is adding insult to injury. How many countries realistically have gone to Washington to kiss his arsehole? Just a handful of sycophants and cronies hoping to get the crumbs and getting insulted.
Yesterday, it was reported that consumer spending was 'robust', yet today the report says unemployment rate has risen to 4.6%. Knowing that most USA citizens have been reported to not have just US$400 in their savings to meet emergency needs, how realistic is the report than they are still spending 'robustly'. I suspect all the figures reported and statistics trotted out are all massaged to give a rosy picture.
Trump is one kind of person who will remove any personnel in his administration that tells the truth about unemployment and jobs and putting another that can lie, cheat and steal. I just do not know what is going to happen with the one replacing Jerone Powell. As Richard Wolff said - 'I was scared earlier, but now I am terrified'
The irony is it exposed the lies trying to cover up a previous lie. The horse hiding behind the curtain will expose itself through its legs.
