No, but the absolutely insane and perfectly predictable swings in market prices, over and over and over, each one capable of eating hundreds of billions of dollars, can't be done as easily any other way.
How about tariffs......?
This is where you are way off. His goal is enrichment. The people who put him there have the goal of destruction of the American government.
Trump was never a darling of the Republican party, they're just adapting to his presidency the best they can.
specifically maintains power by destroying the ability of the American system to function. That's what his cronies want. Eventually he will obliterate the economy too.
He's just taking advantage of decades of decline in both Congress and the judiciary. None of his actions would have been possible if the judiciary and Congress hadn't already fallen apart.
No, I'm not. You are.
I'm giving him too much credit by claiming he doesn't deserve the credit you are giving him....?
I am and always have been claiming that he is an excellent con man. He is a goddamn idiot savant. If I say "that guy is a really good football player" no one assumes I'm calling him a multi-domain genius. But somehow every time I point to trump's very obvious history of successful cons,
You don't have to be an idiot servant if you started with hundreds of millions of dollars. All super wealthy people are allowed to get away with fraud on a grand scale. The only reason we know about it with trump is because he fucks it up so often and in such a brazen way he gets dragged to court all the time.
If he would have just invested his trust fund and inheritance in the stock market he would be worth tens of billions.
there are groups of aristocratic funded geniuses who have been guiding the process you have correctly identified occuring over many presidents, congressmen, senators, governors, etc.
Again.... People who run orgs like the heritage foundation aren't geniuses, they just have deep pockets. I think you are vastly underestimating the power money can buy overtime.
