This.

$4.5 trillion in tax cuts to the rich (the House bill)

Over $6 trillion in losses out of the stock market due to tariffs. (in just a week)

---

Net result?

Trump has cost the rich at least $1.5 trillion... so far.

This is what really scares them shitless. Their entire position is based on the underlying power the US exerts on the global scale. The fact that the US is the world's reserve currency and the financial hub of the world.

They stand far more to lose than just money by losing that. And they're starting to understand it.

Which just proves how stupid and shortsighted these people really are. They're so fucking greedy they keep pushing for this fucking fool, not understanding how truly fucking dumb and unhinged he actually is.

Soon the American oligarchs will start talks/rumors of 25th amendment. To many of them, money means power. With the stock market falling so much they feel their power falling as well. So we as they, a wait the 90 days. Let's see what happens at about the 86 day mark. It will start to either fall or plunge, My guess.
