5 Reasons Why Donald Trump Is Wrecking The Global Economy

Here are 5 reasons why Donald Trump is wrecking the global economy. The US has ruled the roost economically since WW2 and detrimental things that happen there negatively impact upon the world economy too. More than a million jobs have been lost in the US since Trump took over at the beginning of 2025. The labour market has been hit hard from tariffs and DOGE cuts shedding jobs. Things are in the doldrums in America and stagflation may well be on the horizon. Messing with the economy, as the Trump regime has, is having multiple effects.

The Trump Regime

The Trump regime is attacking boats from Venezuela, blowing them up in international waters. Why this focus on a South American nation? Venezuela has the world’s largest oil reserves. The US has a great tradition of going after countries with lots of oil and administrations that don’t bend over backwards for them. Donald Trump is a firm believer in fossil fuels. His administration has already reversed much of the good work that was done under Joe Biden, when it came to renewables and the transition away from climate damaging fossil fuels. Trump is the ultimate head in the sand guy, when it comes to global warming.

The Politics Of Grievance

Politicians on the Right have no long term solutions for anything. Short termism infects everything they do and say. Their intentions are all about getting elected via the politics of grievance. Once in power they achieve little and go about milking the system for their own benefit. Donald Trump is a clear example of this, campaigning on high prices and the cost of living under Joe Biden. The US economy is now in far worse shape since he returned to the White House. More than a million jobs have been lost and stagflation is on the horizon for Americans. Trump now has the lowest approval rate in the polls in US history. If you ask many of his voters if they are happy with his handling of the economy their answer would be in the negative.

Episode 19: Prince Andrew & The P Words - Robert Sudha Hamilton's Podcast

Prince Andrew & The P WordsPlus The Americanization Of AustraliaFor those of us who have long observed the United States it has been apparent that their justice system is heavily tainted by partisanship and the power of the wealthy to avoid it. Jeffrey Epstein sex trafficked young girls for decades to the rich and famous and, yet no client has ever been held accountable for any crime. We are witnessing Prince Andrew getting his knuckles rapped by his royal family for bringing them into disrepute via his behaviour in the Epstein scandal over many years. American billionaires, meanwhile, face no such wrath from the Trump administration. Funny that, perhaps, it has to do with the cosy friendship that Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein enjoyed for 25 years prior to Epstein’s suspicious death in prison. Prince Andrew and the P words that cost him his title. Oh how the mighty have fallen! Perhaps, true justice does come to all in the end? It will be interesting to see if this royal fall from grace will deliver any other Epstein perpetrators to justice. In reality, it has only been British aristocrats to pay any kind of price as yet.

Billionaires and oligarchs are doing real well under Trump. These guys have rigged the system and manipulated capitalism to remove competition...

Who agrees that our government should be doing everything in their power to put an end to profiteering gas exporters? I responded to a tweet yesterday explaining that I wear a coat inside my house in winter because the gas is too expensive to turn the heater.
