Americans fear the end: Economic collapse looms largest on the nation’s mind, and that’s bad news for Biden

Between earthquakes popping up in unusual places, murder hornets making a brief debut a couple years ago (remember those?) and the price of a Trader Joe’s banana rising for the first time in decades, the world seems to be increasingly unpredictable. Much like a Mentos mint popped into a Coke bottle, the pressure is bubbling and potentially set to burst.

But the prime fear among doomsday preppers is less out-of-this-world, like an alien invasion or zombie apocalypse; rather, it takes place on Wall Street’s doorstep.

A third (33%) of Americans fear the end of the U.S. will be the result of a total economic collapse that ripples across the nation, according to a poll released by Ipsos’ Consumer Tracker. Other apocalyptic anxieties revolve around World War III (25%), climate change (19%), another pandemic (12%), and killer robots (2%). A portion of respondents (6%) say none of the above are on their minds when they fear the end.

America had a pro-America, pro-American, close-the-borders President in President Trump.

But they chose to cheer and excuse a Potato and a Laughing Hyena. Who have priorities like “transgender” idiocy.

Now we ALL pay for it at the pump, at the grocery store, every single day of the week.

While Democrat Joe Biden and the Uniparty goons like George W. Bush cheer on the illegal invasion of the U.S.A.

And they believe liars like Democrat Nancy Pelosi and Democrat Chuck Schumer with “The Inflation Reduction Act” which does NONE of that.

Because the American people believe their lies.

Keep your powder dry. Sit tight. Be aware. November is coming, path will be clearer from there.

The Globalists takeover is falling apart. Total failure at the top. (Top down Never Works)

The southern invasion is loaded with enemies. We will have to deal with that on our turf.

That said, a new paper from left-leaning think-tank Economic Policy Institute says economic performance tends to be stronger when Democrats are in power.

If you repeat a lie often enough, the peoples will believe it. Think globull warming.

Economic collapse is what Traitorjoe (i.e., his puppermasters) and the Demonicrats want!!!

They can then declare martial law, put the Constitution and constitutional rights on the shelf, and formally establish their communist kakistocracy.

It will be “socialism to the rescue to save us from the evils of capitalism”. It is their plan. Destroy everything so they can “build back better”.

No wonder politicians have such contempt for their constituents.
I bet they whisper to themselves, “I can’t believe they fell for that!”

Its interesting one of the first things they mentioned was UFO’s.
Ever since Harry Reid planted this story, I’ve suspected it was a plan to distract Americans.
Most Americans wisely ignored it.
This article seems to point to UFO’s being a failed distraction.

Fascinating!
