    Yes, that’s the clown car part I was describing. That this administration is so obsessed yet unable to discern causality, that they’re like “hyperinflation gave Hitler power! Ergo, if I want Hitler’s power, there must be hyperinflation!”

      I think it’s probably more like they know that a destabilized government makes taking complete control easier. He has Musk and company dismantling all the checks/balances, and his economic yo-yo is working on crippling the masses financially, which in the end means less resistance when he moves against the courts with force instead of social media.
