No Thanks. They Don't Want To See It Coming

This past week, America's last business model, "hype and hope",  exploded spectacularly. A mere warning of the fate that awaits the MAGA Kingdom...




Three years ago Ponzi World blog hits spiked to an all time high ahead of the uncertain election, but then fell when Trump's election spawned the almighty MAGA Kingdom. Anyone who thought that imagined realities were insane before his time, had no idea what WWE-inspired Dystopian Wonderland awaited these past three years. I considered switching to the conspiracy-based useful idiot recurring subscription model, now ubiquitous across the internet. But decided against it. I place my faith in the inconvenient truth and the Big Bang theory of monetizing useful carbon...

Now on the anniversary of Trumptopia, there are indications that magical thinking has run its course. Leaving no more fools left to monetize. 

First off, note that squandered fiscal and monetary lubrication have book-ended this MAGA top. Melt-up rallies on both ends of the dumb money mega bubble.



To celebrate the depletion of the stimulus safety net, heading into recession.




Three years of useful subscription monetization later, on the anniversary of Trumptopia, it appears that gamblers are suddenly questioning this entire delusion.

“When you’re losing money on every transaction, you can’t make it up in volume."

Try harder




Remember the steel tariffs?




Energy independence by massively subsidizing environmental catastrophe?




De-regulation of Wall Street?




Make manufacturing great again?





Consumer confidence?




Greatest 'Conomy ever?






All false promises, bought with both hands, based solely upon hype and hope.
