At this point I'm thinking the same, there's no way he didn't realize these markets would get murdered like this. He's looking to bottom shyt so he can buy in and make heavy bank, and artificially make himself look like a hero afterwards smh.
You think he is going to care if he looks like a hero? Breh is going to cash out, then crash out, and go golfing for the next four years. The oligarchs will be able to convert their vapor ware tech money to actual assets, the heritage foundation will gut the federal government, and ship jobs to red states only to realize their residents are incompetent and unable to even do the bare minimum of government work.
Trump will wait for his term to end to use his get out of jail free immunity card. The heritage foundation wants a revolution but their constituents are natural born losers. They need the federal government to operate to survive.
I expect the blue states to basically start operating solo and migration as people move to them for basic services. Especially if foreign countries aim their tariff war to hurt Red States.
This is mostly before the midterms. I really have no idea where bottom is or if people will accept all this, but if you read project 2025 and those tech bro manifestos. Those are the moves on the table.
