The Week in TrumpLand — “Grandpa Has Left The Building” From Ukraine to Iran to Canada
I joined CEO Retort’s Tim El-Sheikh to examine the Trump camp’s mismanagement of the US economy, amid a $40 trillion Federal Government debt, the failing War on Iran, and the Trump family’s profits and grift from Donald in the White House.
I explain the consequences of the spiralling US debt while pointing out that Donald Trump’s priority is making money off the back of it.
I discuss the global effects and consider if they can be reversed with Democrats gaining control of Congress and eventually the Executive.
