Trump used his Truth Social posts to list the ‘tremendous damage’ he claimed Biden had brought on the U.S., describing himself as ruling over ‘hottest nation anywhere in the world’
For example, Infrastructure projects typically pay back several times in value, so it’s often sensible to fund these using debt. China has built shitloads of infrastructure over the past couple of decades
Government debt is bad if it’s not funding infrastructure and is instead being used to pay for things like tax breaks on the wealthy and vanity projects
Credit fuels a growing economy and smothers a failing one. At some point the US economy must collapse. This is why the US are going after all the major trade chokepoints in a desperate attempt to maintain dominance using their military might.
You act like America is acting like a rational country…
trump invested in oil so he wanted to raise the price of oil.
For him, the way to do that is prevent competition from doing business.
It’s pretty easy to get a handle on his thought process by watching The Sopranos. trump wants to be Tony, even though Tony was wildly incompetent. Not that trump ever watched the show, he grew up around the real thing. He idolizes the last generation of incompetent NYC mobsters that Tony is based on.
There’s no 4D chess or grand strategy, he just makes the most selfish decision at every chance that he thinks he can get away with, and right now he thinks he can get away with anything.
If a random person told him they’d cut him 10 million on a grift, he does what they say and then tries to capture the grift and cut out whoever brought it to be.
Logically it makes sense Venezuela was at the behest of American corps, but then trump decided he could take it even further, so he unilaterally shut down the largest shipping route for oil on the planet.
Just cuz it would make his bank account numbers go up a little more.
That’s it. Pure simple greed from someone whose brain is mush, he just knows he wants more money, that’s the only motivation for anything America does while he’s in charge. There’s just gonna be a lot of evil shit because no one in power cares to stop it.
Like, if you’re mad about it (everyone should be) you need to understand what’s happening to effectively stop it.
Isn’t China in far more debt than the US? About 300% of its GDP. Sure, we’re declining, but so are they and they never really rose.
Trumps just sped up our decline.
Government debt isn’t inherently bad.
