    The issue the OC is talking about isn’t something you can just walk back and take your winnings. Owning the husk of a once great economy isn’t really a great outcome.

    I don’t think anyone understands that if he ousts Powell/gets his interest rate lowered, we’re looking at a depression or worse. That kind of economic crisis has the potential to ruin literally anyone, including the wealthy/elites.

      Um, I think everyone except his hardcore followers understands that.

        If that were the case he wouldn’t be in power anymore. Either enough people don’t understand or don’t believe it.

          Many cowards in the Republiqan Party. Also a whole lotta stupid people more engaged in their stupid identity politics who have the mantra of “any criticism of donvict is because someone just has ‘trump derangement syndrome’ and something something argle bargle DEI”.
