After it was all over and everything was in ruins, many Germans found it hard to admit how deceived, duped, stupid, morally untethered they'd been.

They had believed God sent him to make their nation great again.

He was going to make Christianity and Germany manly again.

He had a secret plan, higher knowledge; even when what he did seemed crazy, there was a reason for it.

It would all work out in the end. He had it under control.

"Wednesday, Day 1 of the Trump tariffs, was dubbed 'Liberation Day' by the president. In less than 48 hours, it has come to mean that millions of Americans are being 'liberated' from their retirement funds. Check your 401(k). Dread ‘em and weep. The S&P 500 lost 10% of its value in just two days."

"Our partners and puppets with political power will work with us to divide up the country into network states that we will each control like mini-fiefdoms. The masses will naturally yield to our guidance because, after all, we are chosen by fate and God to lead humanity due to our innate brilliance and superior intellect. Unfortunately, not everyone can join us in this next chapter."

Wajahat Ali talks to Gil Duran, editor of The Nerd Reich newsletter, about why the broligarchy is loving Trump's destruction of the global economy:

"We’re going to tank the global economy. The old order will collapse. Yes, there will be chaos, violence, mass suffering, and pain, but it’s worth it. A phoenix can only rise from the ashes before it ascends to glorious heights and flies to Mars…."
