    I’ve seen a new talking point popping up that he’s crashing the market on purpose to refi US debt and force the fed to drop interest rates…

      My crazy MAGA co-worker thinks he is trying to crash the dollar so they can wipe out debt introducing an American digital currency. Because that wouldn’t completely destroy America’s economy. 🤦🏻

        I figured the big crypto scheme would be to back social security with it (thereby killing the program after the customary pump and dump). This is actually even more terrifying. Hopefully we’re both wrong.
