The board game analogy is a good one. Trouble is, the game the mad king is playing is going to affect everything. The people that surround him, I believe, as one commenter noted are very wealthy if not billionaires that won't go against his wishes or even try to talk sense into him. Some like Peter Navarro don't have any sense anyway. The Times today said Wall Street people, banks, business leaders were all trying to talk sense into him through his aids with no luck. I am retired and live on a fixed income. My very modest 401 is tanking. I live on my pension which will be hit hard if this keeps up as well. SS is being ripped apart at the same time. Costs for everything will/are going up exponentially. There are millions like me that will be really hurt by all of this. Talked to my wealth manager today about how to hedge against this and there really is no way out on that front. The idea that manufacturing can be magically brought back to America is a pipe dream and as the article points out Biden was doing that in a precise manner to avoid huge disruptions. So, the mad king will destroy anything that was moving the economy forward and put in place whatever will be as destructive as possible. Truly, I thing the Donald is really pissed off that he has never gotten the love and respect that he thinks he deserves. And that goes back decades. This is revenge on his perceived enemies and the enemy is the American people. We are all fucked.

Agreed. We are the targets of his retribution.
