There's been a lot of talk about the US economy failing due to this, but I have changed my mind and think there are too many rich people that would be harmed by this on both sides. The rich will whip their politicians into shape and the money will continue to be squeezed from the working class. Europe is quick to criticize, but they worship the dollar too and are headed right down the same fascism road the US is.
That wave has already crested in Canada/Aus/EU and is on the decline, in large part because the rest of us have seen the clusterfuck unfolding in the US and recided to do the opposite of whatever Americans are doing.
I hope the best for you guys. Hopefully you can do what we couldn't. I remember when Biden was elected thinking, "Phew, it's finally over. We can move on."
