So I'm not all that sure the current administration cares if we slip into recession.

I think Trump does want to continue with the adulation of his fans. My wife reports that during pickle ball some of the wives remark how much Trump has accomplished in 30 days. I'm apprehensive. He's managed to not have anything stick except the pandemic and to blame others for not accomplishing much his first term, etc. The cuts Congress is working on are 450 billion a year - that's sizeable. You're right, it won't hurt the oligarchs, but a lot of people are going to get hurt, I know some of them, but I think a lot of MAGA will continue to blame libs.
