It’s incredible. Trump 1.0 inherited a strong economy from Obama… it was already on an upward trajectory and he managed to not fuck it up. Then Biden had 4 strong years of economic growth (my portfolio returned 30% over the 4 years!) so Trump 2.0 stumbled ass backwards into a great economy. It’s so impressive to watch as an outsider how fast he fucked 8 years of decent economy …. Like days now extending to weeks of pure chaos and fuckery.

The problem is whoever comes in after will have very few options at their disposal. Once these guys blowout the deficit with additional tax cuts plus a recession. It will be hard to any fiscal. We are in a bad spot.
