Shit is going to roll downhill fast.

The Trump administration is built upon Mount Bullshit and when the dam breaks, the flood is coming.

We're spending trillions more than we have, and about to jack interest rates really low. The economy isn't creating jobs and salaries are not moving. Young people graduating this spring face a bleak jobs market for them. As we see more and more young people out of work . . . protests going to start raging. Really, if unemployment spikes, it could be a long hot summer in the US
