Good to see someone actually mentioning this.

The dollar is done as the worlds reserve currency if there is no rule of law. Which means, we are done, debt default, Greatest ever Depression . .

“The other thing that’s not talked about is what’s going on within the administration in terms of how they’re treating the Constitution and laws.”

“I think all of that is bad for the attraction of capital. We need massive amounts of capital if we want to fund our deficits, pay for the things we want to pay for, sell our bonds and have high stock prices. And it seems as if this administration is doing everything it can to chase foreign capital away.”
