Chicago style shakedown. He is a thug.
Just imagine that all of the numbers being thrown around are assuming we see some economic growth of the coming years. They are assuming we end the wars. They are assuming there won’t be additional major wars in the Middle East (or elsewhere). They are assuming that Europe won’t fall apart (which appears possible if not likely). They are assuming that IRAN won’t LAUNCH a war - a major war.
They are assuming no huge disasters. No major terrorist attacks on our soil.
Think about the last 5-10 years.
How do you think this is going to play out?
