I’d love to know is this is yet another record that Trump has set. I know we’ve had instability before in US history, but for the most part especially recent history the dollar has been strong, and certainly stable. For him to have toppled the US as an economic power…who would have guessed he’d be the guy?
Oh, everyone. Just hard to believe that even he could do this.
And yes, I see it’s The Onion, but like OP said, it’s very true. We are yet again in unprecedented territory.
Right, but it’s such a huge entity that it’s like a bad steering for a tanker. You start to drift wrong, but there’s enough inertia to regain control before things get ugly, and we have before. Of course if you’re leaning drunk on the rudder for an hour or turn it hard and then remove the rudder controls…what can you do then?

It’s less “Who’d have guessed he could do this?” and more “The US has always been a nudge away from collapse, huh?” I think.
