How does this relate to Trump being elected US president ?

I think this post is far to short and might get deleted. You need to post at least three full lines in the discription portion of the discussion box for it to count as a discussion. Addationally, if you took the time to read the political posts around here, you'd see how vocal members are about it.

With what I listened to today on the main news I watch everyday just about he's done started what he said he was going to do in the 1st 100 days

Its going to be a helluva ride friend..

If I was an incoming US president and I wanted to drive my country into poverty, I'd be doing what Trump's doing. The tarrif's he's threatening will drive prices up, and probably close down a lot of US businesses by making it too expensive to import parts and other necessary supplies. We're already hearing about ICE raids disrupting small and medium size businesses by detaining members of their workforce who they claim to suspect are there illegally. Trump's crazy imperialist threats agains Greenland, Canada and Panama is bound to cripple arms exports, which is currently a big chunk of the American economy. Who's going to want to buy weapons from a potential adversary? All of this adds up to a recession coming in the near future. An artificial, totally unnecessary recession. And probably one that's being deliberately engineered. Because Trump and the people who control him must know that these policies will cripple the American economy. But if you're super-rich you can make money out of recessions, especially if you know in advance that they're coming. Trump, the Heritage Foundation, Elon Musk and all the other swamp-dwellers are quite happy to line their own pockets at the expense of their countrymen. The good news is that the rest of the world won't feel the effects as badly as America. The war in Ukraine has had European countries looking into ramping up arms production anyway, the effective loss of America as an ally will just give a bit more impetus to that process. Canada can find plenty of alternative markets for the goods and raw materials that it exxports to the US, albeit not as handy. Same thing with Mexico. Europe as a whole is an economic superpower. It's good to have the US as a market, but they're not indispensible to anyone. So the short version of all that is America's stuffed, but the rest of us will be OK.
