Trump wants to f#ck up the US consumers and economy– what your take?

It’s like Brexit all over again. The masses do not learn since this is psychological engineering that has been taking place for decades. Before brexit for instance, newspapers have been demonizing asylum seekers for years, hence all any smart but exploitative politician had to do is weaponize that. Being a politician that can sway the masses is easy if you’re able to tap into these talking points. Here is the quick guide as to how:
1. Find a boogeyman, usually immigrants will do, promise to lower costs and blame immigration and immigrants for the increase in cost of living. A common ‘otherised’ enemy unites all and can make the working class forget about their class struggle and specific needs.
2. Insinuate that you’ll be putting the natives or in the case of America the conquerors (the cadaans) first. Create the impression that the cadaans are the underclass and that you’ll fight for their right to take back what’s there’s. Voting for you, is equivalent to taking back their land from these pesky foreigners
3. Be sympathetic and make them feel like the victims being hard done by foreigners and the establishment even though as a wealthy politician, you are literally the establishment and a billionaire to boot.
4. Use nostalgia of the good old days to get them excited about life under you and your party. Project images of 1950s UK or America showing a white majority leafy green picturesque rural town of smiling and happy white families unburdened by financial worry or foreigners.
5. Emphasis on American and European culture, talk about the feats of fathers of old. Hark back to the might of the empire, talk about family values and how white men too have become victims of women’s new found rights and that by voting for you, the old system of a white and male elite will be back! But jokes on them, white male elites is what America is still built upon, but working class men haven’t figured out that they’re barred because well…they’re poor. It isn’t their race or gender, it’s their class, but you’ll play along and make them feel as though they’re victims for being white! They’ll buy into the idea of you too are a victim since you’re white and male and can understand them, despite being a Billionaire!
6. Use your R-word case as a perfect example of how America and the Western world are fighting against white men and are trying to silence you. Your court case is actually an aid in your popularity since it’s a marker that you too are being penalized by the establishment.

america is an anomaly in western democracy. the two parties actually have major and stark differences compared to the uk. mainly in domestic and identity politics. but at the end of the day both american parties are run by rich crooks. america can be described as an oligarchy.
Right wingers like to cling on to weird ideals of independence and free market economics. Right wing grifters and politicians advocate for these policies because they benefit directly from them but poor right wingers actually believe in those ideas. Have you ever wondered why majority of the poor states are republican despite having pro business policies and low taxes. These policies don't work yet people still support them for ideological reasons.
This about the economy Moron
Your spolier dosent make any snese either Weve all made this clear their all in it
I genuinely wants them to suffer
Do you know how to read? Her comment is related to the thread.
a bunch of fearmongering doqomo that are running around with their goofy takes. tariff is meant a negotiating piece and its already working while he not in office. Tariffs are a tax to balance trade. Of course this trump guy it his behavior to act like this. He is not going to tax the canadian oil, the rest of the things are negligble and can be created domestically. ITs like all the people on this thread are not from america or are extreme liberals who will support biden / kamala. People dont care about mis managed statistics, they care about how they feel and what their pocket is like.
He’s a low IQ misogynist that is illiterate. Hence why I don’t deal with him.
My mom called it months ago. His idea is to make made in america goods and idk how hes a business man cuz companies in america dont want to make things here. They want cheap labor. So tht made in america wont happen! What will happen if these tariffs go through is tht the citizens will be paying more on everything. He will collapse the economy maybe even more than george w bush. I just wish i didnt live here to feel the b.s with these poor cadaans who are sooo racist tht they dont see when theyre getting f'd cuz they just want u gone. In their fairytale mind as long as non white people are in America they think anything bad will *only* affect us.
This is exactly what i believe.
Let Donald Trump and the Republican party implement their domestic economic policies, it's going to blow up in their face and its going to be used for decades as an argument against right wing economic policies.
His businesses went bankrupt 11 times and he has been convicted on Business fraud, so that should tell you how he will manage the country's economy.
Most of his voters are not particularly poor but they are really racist
The Economic Anxiety Explanation of Fascism Is Wrong
Same with Elon Musk, most of his corporate interests lean towards the wealthy that buy his cars. He is allying with the extreme right because they help his elite corporate interests.
Tesla owners are more Republican than you’d think

Politicians are not the ones stoking the flames and pointing the finger towards immigration. The cadaans themselves from across all classes, political leaning dislike migrants. White flight literally proves it.
