NEW: There's no reason to act like Trump is pursuing a trade policy or an industrial revitalization strategy.

Who are these "people" building factories today? Bezos? Musk? 1-3-% hold all the money... and no, Musk, nor Bezos will build factories today. Global economy was for all. America first will be America alone.

The Trump administration is doing all he did only MUCH faster 🫤

America has now sanctioned itself, from the global markets.
Except the Russian mob, I guess.
Congress could halt the chaos, but it looks like it’s up to the people instead.
It Didn't happen if the people don't know it happened ....
