Are you referring to the psychotic gibberish of the "victory" speech?

"Starting in 2011, the deficits again started to shrink.

Bush’s original tax cuts. This is the year everything reversed. Before this, under Clinton, Bush and Obama the deficit in almost every year was gradually decreasing. The balance we had of taxes and the economy was bringing the deficit down, the money coming in was slowly catching up with the money going out until 2015. Trump’s subsequent tax cut has continued the new trend even after the rest of Bush’s cuts have since expired. Obama had an average GDP of 2.3%, with 11.6 million jobs created and unemployment peaking at 10% in 2009, then falling to 4.3% in 2016. If we had continued on that downward deficit track, we would have again reached balance and another surplus in 2017-2018.

"Federal Housing Finance Agency Director William Pulte just ordered Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to treat cryptocurrency — a volatile and largely unregulated mess — as an asset when evaluating whether to purchase mortgages from banks.

Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae support about 70% of the mortgages in the country. They don’t issue loans but instead buy up home loans and package them into mortgage-backed securities, which are then sold to private investors. Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae then guarantee payments to those investors if the mortgage holder defaults.

Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae are likely going to have to issue loans to people partly  based on their cryptocurrency holdings. So when the cryptocurrency market collapses and homebuyers default on loans, Freddie and Fannie will have to cover the resulting losses."

Crypto was due for its predictable 4-year surge in 2025, but with everything going on in the world it likely will not happen now, or even in the next few years. All we get is the 24hr blip on inauguration day, right before everyone realized we are all totally ****ed. Trump stupidly played his hand on that with his own memecoin. Idiot.
2017 surge was great, 2021 surge was amazing, 2025 is looking less and less likely

All that is, is they're printing more dollars without "saying" they're printing more dollars.

When you go to the bank and borrow, they create the money out of thin air, asset and liability. The central banks have fully disclosed that that is how the majority of money comes into being.

Crypto is just a new intermediate for the dollar, which on the surface obfuscate what it is they're doing.

Eliminated the national deficit, and had the highest employment rate of any sitting President since.

"A former FBI agent who was accused of inciting rioters to kill police officers on Jan. 6, 2021, now holds a post within President Donald Trump’s Department of Justice.

The ex-agent, Jared Wise, is serving as an adviser in the DOJ’s so-called “Weaponization Working Group,” a task force Trump created to pursue political retribution while claiming to root out abuses in law enforcement.

Wise will serve as a counselor to Ed Martin, the controversial former head of the Eagle Forum and Trump’s original pick for U.S. attorney for Washington, D.C. Martin, who participated in the Jan. 6 insurrection himself, now leads the Weaponization Working Group after Trump quietly pulled his nomination when it became clear that the Senate—including some Republicans—wouldn’t support him.

Martin’s past defending of insurrectionists has already raised eyebrows, but bringing Wise on board is a particularly striking move. A man once accused of encouraging an angry mob to kill police officers is now helping steer the DOJ’s effort to go after anyone who tried to hold those insurrectionists accountable.

According to a memo from Attorney General Pam Bondi, the group’s mission includes investigating “improper investigative tactics and unethical prosecutions” tied to the insurrection. But its name signals a broader and more troubling agenda: using the DOJ as a weapon against Trump’s enemies."

All of these illegal killings existed before. It's just a slightly different banner in this case.

I'm convinced there are really only two types of people in American Government right now:
A. Sociopaths who care not about the damage and harm they are causing, knowingly being cruel for the sake of self-serving opportunity.
B. Those who are too fearful of the sociopaths to go against them, knowing if they speak up they will be devoured.

Ruling through naked corruption and fear. It all just happened so quickly and efficiently.

One would guess NT's psyche degree was made up too.

Sociopathy is an element of personality that everyone has.  To frame the political argument as sociopathy = bad, is an overwhelming over simplification, and explains nothing.

The Republican long game took 2+ decades to get Reagan into office and another 2+ to get Trump in. That was mostly a fluke (who knew that Putin would be so effective?) and they were like the dog that finally caught the car it was chasing.

This time, the Heritage Foundation had Project 2025 fully worked out and printed up.
