Donald Trump has done a lot of things lately, but there's something very interesting to talk about. The main thing is that he doesn't have a strategic plan. I mean, he's taking some active steps, he's creating some activity and some buzz, but he doesn't have a strategic plan.
At least a couple of things have became clear over the last week. The first thing is that Trump's plan (or the people who actually put it forward) was to replace the Fed, that is, the bankers' tool to control the financial system with a digital alternative.
That is, it was the Magnificent Three: Thiel, Musk, Sachs, who were supposed to make some new structure that would replace the Fed, and as a result, the bankers would leave and the whole Bretton Woods system would go away.
And in its place, with the same economic model, there would be a completely different financial superstructure that is controlled by completely different elite groups, and this is quite a questionable scheme.
It means that Trump has begun to destroy the Bretton Woods system very actively. We can see it with the naked eye in this whole tariff story, because the demands that he made at any rate officially to Mexico and Canada could have been made much more gently.
But no, it was done in an extremely harsh way. And most importantly, it was clearly shown that Trump is not interested in the World Trade Organization, and since the WTO is one of the backbone elements of the entire Bretton Woods system, the picture is clear of what he is trying to do.
But if something stands on three whales and you kill one of the whales, then the system becomes highly unstable, that is the IMF, the World Bank and the WTO cannot exist without each other for a long time, this is a fundamentally important point.
And at the same time, we shouldn't forget that the sanctions against China have not gone anywhere, and tariff restrictions against Russia have not gone anywhere either. The sanctions that amount to maximum tariffs have not gone away, and the threats against the European Union and other countries have not gone away. So, in general, the picture is more or less clear.
But here is a fundamentally important point, which is simply impossible to explain to the American experts with their liberal economic thinking. (a note: liberal economic thinking is present among republican economists too) The crisis that is happening today is not a crisis of the financial system, as they think, but a crisis of the economic model.
The economic model, which was built in the logic of stimulating the demand of the emission sector and the loss-making real sector, which was compensated by increasing capitalization. This model is no longer working.
And for this reason, whether you have the dollar or whether you have a digital currency is irrelevant. That's the reason why this whole team is going to be quite surprised by the unexpected events/results of their actions. Namely after they will destroy the dollar system and offer the world a digital analog.
For the last 2 weeks the picture in general with the economic crisis has been more or less clear. So what happened: Well, first of all, prices for intermediate industrial goods in the United States of America began to rise, until now they were slightly falling in price, which meant that American manufacturers are trying to compete with imports by reducing prices.
Over the last couple of months, prices have stopped falling, which means that the ability of American industry to compete with imports has been exhausted. As a result, there has been a surge in imports of both goods and services.
There was another significant event in January, in October, November, and December. The length of the U.S. work week was about the same. The December data has been reduced, and the January data is further reduced.
This means that in the United States of America the economic recession has been accelerating for the last 2 months, and for this reason we should not expect any positive economic developments.
Trump hasn't done anything significant yet. Yes, of course, he said there are only two genders. Yes, of course, he banned gender reassignment. Yes, of course, he started demolishing the transgender ideology. He dismantled the ideological structure of power groups hostile to him. But nothing yet when it comes to economy.
