The ‟Trump Doctrine”

First, Trump talks tough about Iran and the Market goes down. He threatens to wage war for specious reasons and the Market goes further down. He starts a war with Iran, without going to Congress and without stating any specific goals, basically because Israel tells him to and Bin Salman pays him to. Oil prices soar while the Market tanks. Despite casualties on both sides, he claims victory, because of the efficacy of the American and Israeli militaries. He keeps everyone wondering what he’ll do next, while he surreptitiously tells his friends that he’s going to back off, allowing them to buy mega amounts of stocks at depressed prices. Suddenly, he declares that he’s willing to end the war, without revealing any achieved goals. Iran appears to agree to this charade and the Market soars, making lots of money for his friends. So in the end, thousands of lives are lost, while nothing has really changed and no one has been helped except Trump and his buddies.

‟So, where’s my Nobel Peace Prize?”

We consider this con to be ‟The Trump Doctrine”. He basically pulled the same scam around his tariffs. In any scenario, Trump’s only goal as president is to make money. We just can’t wait to vote for Democrats in November!
