'Gradually, Then Suddenly' - We are Now Entering the Sudden Part

“Gradually, then suddenly.” - Ernest Hemingway, when asked how he ended up in bankruptcy.

If things are starting to feel like a replay of August 2008 all over again to you, well, you are far from alone. You all remember that August 16 years ago, don’t you? That was the month when the globalist elites decided to crash the global economy to ensure the election of Barack Hussein Obama His Own Self to the presidency later that year.

The tactic worked then, so hey, why wouldn’t it work now?

Well, the obvious problem is that this year there’s a Democrat at least pretending to function as the nation’s president. Every presidential election cycle is either a change cycle or a status quo cycle, and the state of the economy generally determines which kind of cycle each will become. The weak state of the Biden economy had already pretty much guaranteed this year would become a change cycle, making Donald Trump the odds-on favorite to prevail over his non compos mentis opponent in November.
