Why would a leader tank his own country's economy?
It's a key part of the aspiring autocrat's playbook.
Tariffs & chaos mean more power & control for Trump.
But America has no king. The Republican-led Congress can stop this at any time.

Musk’s status as a “special government employee” limits him to 130 days in the executive branch. However, despite working daily—documented by his own X posts—they claim he only works one day a week, effectively stretching his limit to 130 weeks. This needs to be brought to Congress—please share.
