OPINION AND ANALYSIS
Here are our thoughts on Trump’s second term so far. Unfortunately, given our policy is to do only 3 minute videos (because we get much better viewership for our short videos), we couldn’t to all the things we have to say about Trump’s first 7 months. Frankly, we could go on and on. Some items of special note that we could not get to is Trump’s retreat on tackling climate change. Excessive heat, drought, hurricanes, rising ocean levels, rising ocean temperatures are causing major problems which will only get far worse if not addressed now. The environment affects everything from the food chain, to disease control to population shifts etc. That means the environment will fundamentally affect international relations.
We also didn’t mention Trump’s blatant attempts to control the Fed. The independence of the Federal Reserve Board is an absolute must. If Trump gets control of the Fed you will see constant manipulations of the money supply (to goose the economy) that are virtually guaranteed to be highly inflationary. Worse, the credibility of the U.S. financial system on the world stage will suffer which, in our opinion, will likely will cause the dollar to lose value which in turn will make all imports more expensive., The U.S. Dollar has been the bedrock of the World’s financial system ever since the end of World War II. Anything that changes that has the potential for causing fundamental change that very probably would not be in the best interests of the Untied States.
