God I'm exhausted.
At this point, we just need to cut it all off completely. Oil shipments, electricity, lumber, aluminum. All of it.
I know that that's a hard ask for those industries that are affected, and if it means the federal goverment has to temporarily raise the deficit in order to subsidize those industries it'll be crazy expensive and inflation will shoot up. But I'm convinced that that would be only a short amount of time that that would actually be needed.
Let the United States go one week without our stuff. 100%...fuck 'em. They'll last one week. Maybe two. And when they quit their bullshit, make it clear that we are diversifying our business partners making it easier to pull it from them again anytime they let Trump open is fucking mouth.
Hold our resources hostage against them.
I mean, if we play all our cards at once, we have no cards left for the next thing, and in the process that might raise enough American political will to invade for real.
It should be and I think is all on the table, though, and I have no problem with it if they want to escalate, because we also need to raise political will to sever our ties for good.
That's the game, he's bleeding you for cards.
If he's going to attack you, he'll bleed you first. There is no appeasing him permanently.
