🤷‍♀️ 🤔❓️ I don't have an answer to that. Only a personal opinion.

I believe that the #Trump #Junta wants to put the "bottom" 90% of the #US population into economic pain. For a variety of reasons. Some are outright #evil, some more connected to the general #macroeconomic situation of the #USA.

What they WANT is a managed #recession they can handle.

What (at least as I project this) they are instead GOING TO GET is a #FreeFall off a cliff.

I think they miscalculated badly here.

" The #debt is growing because the country keeps #Borrowing to finance an increasingly large gap between #GovernmentSpending and #Revenue. (..) What’s the Solution? "

🤔 Judging by their actions, the solution of the #Trump - #Junta is to slash revenue drastically while raising expenditure to unprecedented levels.

(While their other "solution" is to declare bancruptcy [#MarAlLagoAccord] - because the daddy of the United States will of course bail the country out as he always did in the past. 🙄)

The situation in Myanmar is dramatic. These armed groups can be called activists as well. I can send you a lot of articles to try to explain the situation. Myanmar is going through a civil war. And the military #junta operates for decades opressing minorities. This is one of the worst situations in the world.

Myanmar junta’s promise of elections denounced as ‘sham’ by experts

There are fears military will deploy further violence in run-up to any poll, which is unlikely to be viewed as credible

Wat heeft de #junta van #Trump met #ElSalvador?

De president van El Salvador, Nayib Bukele, gekozen in 2019, voerde de Bitcoin in. Hij liet in 2020 soldaten gewapenderhand het parlement dwingen een lening tbv leger en politie goed te keuren. Daarna kreeg zijn partij twee derde van de zetels in handen.

Hij verving rechters van het constitutioneel hof door volgelingen en kan nu zichzelf blijven opvolgen. En daarna werd hij bij dubieuze verkiezingen herkozen met 85 procent van de stemmen.

ok this kinda sums it all up

"The #protests come as #Democrats in #Washington have been widely #criticised for their #ineffectual response to the #Trump administration’s full-scale #assault on the administrative #state."

The Democrats have lost the #people in the #USA. They're not gonna watch silently the Trump #Junta dismantle their (!) #Republic & elect a "opposition" in 4 years.

Seems the "moderating" effect of the Democrats has vanished & people will fight.
