If you want to know what's in store

Read "Secrets of the Temple" by Wm. Greider. Greider was editorial page editor of WaPo and wrote this about how Reagan and Voelker stuck it to the Japanese. This is what the globalists will try to do to us.

A friend who had a very long LE career always tells me 'if it seems too convenient to be a random coincidence, it is'. Let's see. Mysterious illness pops up out of China, right at the same time Russia and KSA crash the oil market. And the stock market collapses. I am sure there was major short selling by sovereign wealth funds, foreign holdings, and big individual accounts. No doubt computer driven panic accelerated it but I'll bet it was triggered by human decisions.

Wait and see if this mega spending spree ends up with the U.S. being pressured to refinance our debt in foreign currencies.

It's a worldwide pandemic. What makes you think other currencies can displace the dollar?

Money can be thought of as fuel, but also lubricant.

You're not wrong however to suggest (via your underlying premise) that the ham-handed "America First" attitude displayed by Trump might come back to bite us, given that it dissipated such good will as there was internationally towards the US.

About which an ironist might say "that didn't take long".

Cause and effect, gentlemen. The OP is concerned that someone might get leverage on us, and payback. Rightly so, given that the past three years of foreign policy have been quite publicly about how we can maximize leverage over other countries.

An old saying, which apparently y'all have long forgotten:

What goes around, comes around.

The riots and uprisings in Hong Kong that threatened the Communist government in China sure stopped didn’t they.
Hmmm...

another way of saying it is The Pendulum Swings Both Ways,

as in we have had a few (well more than a few) where we gave away the farm,, and now some would say we are trying to get some land back,

By 07/04/2020 the coronavirus will be history and we will be still paying for Obamaphones, unemployment compensation for bums that won’t work, giving millions to JFK and other pork measures that the Dems are adding to the measures meant to minimize the effects to the economy. And yes the stooges are laughing their ass off because innocent people are dying and they don’t give a rats arse that America will become a third world poverty stricken nation just like Venezuela, Argentina, Cuba, and Russia.

Red, why dont you refuse the check...and stop being part of the problem. Tear it up.

We should all be able to say no thanks, I don't need it.

July 4, Covid-19 in the rear view mirror. My take on the numbers says NO CHANCE IN HELL but July 4 will come on schedule.

Can we make this a sticky?
