He is setting USA up for the worst economic crisis in history.
The biggest, the best, the most beautiful financial downfall the world has ever seen.
Crashed economies hurt the poor. The rich use their wealth to buy up resources, realestate, stocks, etc. on the cheap and then ride it out in their luxury homes while the rest of us stand in the bread lines.
What hes aiming for is destabilization.
He's already talking civil war.
Which I think is his ultimate goal. and the goal of his masters.
Civil War 2 on a horrific scale, that knocks America out of any meaningful global position for years, if not decades afterwards.
Which only works until you tank the country by pissing of your customers (aka other countries) enough and tank your currency.
Everything en route!
The wealthiest people in the world already essentially do not experience borders. They regularly travel without passports or customs checks, live for extended periods in multiple nations without visas, they are essentially the proverbial citizens of the world. If the US falls and the dollar is wiped from the face of the Earth, they'll have all of their money in European stocks, Asian currencies, and Middle Eastern real estate as they watch the collapse.
It will take a bit more time. Enough time that when the next president steps in, the aftermath will really show. Then this egotistic maniac will point at that president and blame them. Never him fault, according to him.
But that's narcissism for you.
There's like a 50 percent chance he'll be dead by the time it really starts.
They said run it like a business.
That's what he's doing: he crashed most of his businesses.
