America voted for cons, crooks and thugs. And is getting conned, crooked and thugged.
Entirely predictable. And well deserved. I say this as someone living and suffering in America.
There is no one else to blame but ourselves. The future is bleak.
It's even worse for us of the rest of the world, because the United States influence the whole world, and we can't do anything against this tragedy.
It is bad for the rest of the world but the rest of the world has an exit. Call your representatives and stop using US dollar for trade. Literally, that one action alone will save a lot of grief for people outside the US.
This is not a joke. What will sting Elon, Trump and crooks the most is losing their wealth. The rest of the world does not need to suffer for these crooks.
That’s wishful thinking… One can’t simply stop using USD for trade on a whim. Decoupling will take at least a decade if not longer.
About half of their extra EU trade is in USD, about half in Euro.
Losing half of their import market and half of their export market would be the worst financial calamity they’ve ever faced.
