the gop kleptocracy has a surplus of targets, and is playing out as expected.
1. taxpayers (largest, easiest)
2. equity mkt manipulation by oscillating tweets (surprise scaled entry)
3. lobbyists (iran, etc...)
4. all else is trump\MAGA entertainment budget (ballroom, etc...)

"It helps to think of the [Trump] economy as a mafia bust-out, where the “mark” is the US Treasury. In a
bust-out, the mafia takes control of a legitimate business, runs up credit as much as they possibly can,
they and their cronies profit handsomely, and then they leave the mark with a bankrupt shell.
Translated to the US economy, the nation’s credit (i.e., the national debt) is being run up with wild
abandon. [Trump], his family, other insiders, and the GOP zealots he needs to keep on board are profiting
handsomely. Ultimately it is the mass of US taxpayers who will be left with the bill."
