Trump’s Trade Triumphs, Debt Woes, and Georgia’s Political Reckoning

As Georgia’s polit­i­cal insid­ers face scruti­ny, crit­ics claim elites live in a bub­ble, dis­miss­ing MAGA roots while evad­ing accountability—unlike the real world, where “peo­ple go to jail.” Audi’s explo­ration of three U.S. pro­duc­tion sites marks a win for Trump’s tar­iff-dri­ven push, though no final deci­sion is con­firmed. Fed­er­al Reserve Chair Jerome Pow­ell warns Trump’s trade war risks stagfla­tion, with U.S. debt near­ing Ukraine’s 100% GDP ratio. Elon Musk and Trea­sury Sec­re­tary Scott Bessent stress spend­ing cuts, as past zero-inter­est poli­cies fueled a debt cycle, with the Trea­sury buy­ing unsold bonds. Bessent’s week­end trade talks with Chi­na, ini­ti­at­ed by the U.S., show no progress. A U.S.-UK trade deal, announced today with a 10 a.m. news con­fer­ence, could iso­late the EU post-Brex­it. Newark airport’s air traf­fic issues, blamed on Biden-era mis­man­age­ment by Pete Buttigieg, are labeled delib­er­ate. Envi­ron­men­tal reg­u­la­tions sti­fle U.S. infra­struc­ture like inter­states and bul­let trains. The Trump admin­is­tra­tion seeks to release the Hur inter­view, blocked by Biden, ques­tion­ing his tri­al fit­ness. Some Repub­li­cans resist defund­ing Planned Par­ent­hood in Trump’s bill. David Perdue’s Chi­na ambas­sador role rais­es con­cerns over his out­sourc­ing his­to­ry.

• The evil peo­ple live in a bub­ble, it’s none of your busi­ness and they were nev­er MAGA any­way. In the real world, peo­ple go to jail. More on the Geor­gia Hour. 
• Audi is mov­ing pro­duc­tion to the US. Huge win for Trump as world’s sec­ond biggest car­mak­er relo­cates man­u­fac­tur­ing to US. No final deci­sion has been made but they are scout­ing 3 loca­tions in the US. 
• Pow­ell warns Trump trade war could cause stagfla­tion. The US spends more than we take in. When the fed­er­al reserve gets an order for cash. Ukraine is at 100% debt to GDP and the US is very close to the same. We have heard Elon Musk, Scott Bessent and oth­ers say we have no oth­er choice than to change our spend­ing. Trump knows what they have done shov­el­ing the mon­ey out the win­dow at zero inter­est for such a long time. The trea­sury was buy­ing their own debt because no one was buy­ing it. The debt cir­cle is so large the smartest peo­ple can’t fig­ure it out. Jerome Pow­ell will raise inter­est rates when he gets the chance but he is hold­ing for now. Bessent is meet­ing with my Chi­nese coun­ter­part on trade and eco­nom­ic issues. Chi­na said the US ini­ti­at­ed the trade talks this week­end and that posi­tions haven’t changed. 
• Big News con­fer­ence tomor­row morn­ing at 10am, a big announce­ment with the UK today. All you hear in the news is the UK and EU is mak­ing a deal and that it would reunite the UK and Europe. Because of Britx­it and if Trump works a deal with the UK the EU will be in a box. 
• Newark air­port air traf­fic prob­lems. They are doing this on pur­pose in Newark. Pete Buttigieg was a dis­as­ter in the Biden admin­is­tra­tion for 4 years. These prob­lems are a result of noth­ing. The attacks will go from one depart­ment to anoth­er. 
• We can­not build any­thing in Amer­i­ca, we can’t build inter­states, the bul­let train because they have to pre­serve the areas because of an envi­ron­men­tal clear­ance. 
• Trump admin­is­tra­tion eyes release of Hur inter­view blocked by Biden. Remem­ber this is the inter­view that result­ed in the reports that Biden can’t stand tri­al. 
• Some con­gres­sion­al repub­li­cans oppose defund­ing Planned Par­ent­hood in Trump’s “big beau­ti­ful” bill.  
• David Per­due is now the ambas­sador of Chi­na. The prob­lem with Per­due is he out­sources our jobs to Chi­na.
