In todays news, Ray Dalio states the obvious:

"Hedge fund billionaire Ray Dalio has warned Donald Trump’s America is drifting into 1930s-style autocratic politics — and said other investors are too scared of the president to speak up."

"I think that what is happening now politically and socially is analogous to what happened around the world in the 1930-40 period."

"He also warned of dangers of the Federal Reserve losing its independence. If the central bank yields to political pressure to keep interest rates low,
that would undermine the confidence in the Fed defending the value of money and make holding dollar-denominated debt assets less attractive."

"If Trump managed to influence the Fed’s decisions on interest rates, that would present a very serious danger to the American and global economies."

"International investors have already started shifting out of Treasuries into gold, he noted."

"Most people are silent because they are afraid of retaliation if they criticize."

MAGA voted for isolationism without understanding the consequences. Here come the consequences.
