I TOLD You! Podcast S-2 / E-4! How Trump’s tariffs wreck and isolate America? It is a lot more than just expensive taxes; it is also about geopolitical fallout.
Today’s topic
I realize there are a bunch of people on the mainstream and independent media speaking about how Trump’s tariffs are such a huge mistake. They are right, but they are missing another layer in this saga. And it has to do more with strategical standing in the geopolitical world than actual higher prices. The higher cost of living is part of it, and as bad as that is, it is only incidental! Yes…
Buckle up buttercup, because this episode will be hitting you like a ton of bricks, and you might need a blanket to sit on a corner and cry or use the restroom to push a double dragon for a while, because it is going to hurt. And you’ll see why. Let’s start with the obvious. Trump seems to be subordinate to Putin and the Kremlin’s agenda. If he is not, then he is somehow able to enact the Kremlin’s doctrine to a T.
The way to destroy a country is by dividing their people, and then making it implode. Yes, destruction from the inside out. That is what Putin is doing, and that is what we are getting. We have to understand that Russia is openly adversarial to the USA, and so are countries that are friendly overtly to Russia. Yet there are some “common acquaintances” with other countries that kind of placate to the USA and Russia. For example, the BRICS countries.
For anybody who does not know BRICS stands for Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa… but there are some additional ones, which include: Iran, Egypt, Ethiopia, and the United Arab Emirates. It won’t take you too long to realize that some of those are also openly adversarial or at the very least have a lot of tensions towards the USA. Particularly Iran, and China. Their combined economies are also part of the global market, and yes, the USA is on the same planet.
So, when you see Trump threatening our closes allies to the north and south, Canada and Mexico with a tariff war, then we are inflicting extreme wounds to the USA. Not only that, but we become isolationist… you know? Like North Korea. But wait, there is more! Trump’s comment of making Canada the 51st State in the USA is a lot more loaded than what people think.
For that you have to think in strategic terms, which include warfare and geography. This episode will blow your mind. Because a lot of the craziness you thought you saw already pales in comparison to what will come next. Remember, the bad guys are several steps ahead, and the media tends to be reactive.

Snowflake Trigger Warning Note:
If you love Trump, this might actually change your tune. Why? Because all your cognitive dissidence will hit you like a train smashing into a brick wall. Yes, your life will be more expensive, and we are becoming isolated in the world stage under Trump. Who wins with that? The adversarial regimes do, and the USA loses its prestige on the world stage. So, if you have thin skin this will hurt like a b*itch, but the fact is that even if you keep your head in the sand, all that I will warn you about will happen to you anyway. And if you voted for Trump, this is what you voted for. That is why you needed to listen to more context than your favorite talking heads yapping the same state-sponsored Russian talking points.

First Edition! Available worldwide on eBook and Paperback
I TOLD You! And I repeat it, Trump is not the mastermind. He might have convinced himself and his MAGA followers that he might be the next President of the United States of America, but in reality, instead of “Hail to the Chief,” we might hear the Russian national anthem playing – unless Trump grows a spine and confronts Putin head on. But he is not going to do that, because it looks like he works for him.
How do we know? Well, Russian state media keeps playing nude photos of Melania Trump as a common occurrence now. And Trump has said NOTHING to Putin to cut that sh*t out. He won’t either – neither of them. First because it seems that Putin has dirt on Trump that is so juicy that Trump has never DARED to give Putin a nickname. Go on, what’s Trump’s childish nickname for Putin? Trump has no problem yapping about any person, but he minds his Ps and Qs with Putin.
And Putin has called him a liar to his face and in front of the world. So, you have to really understand who is running this situation. And if the GOP leaders cannot grow a spine, which they will likely – then we are in a world of hurt. I just wish they remember that they work for the American people, not for Trump. And that working for Trump seems to be working for the Kremlin. Even if they have not realized it. And if they haven’t, that is somehow worse.

If you are one of the few last sane people in America who are either not burring their head in the sand, or just giving up, I really hope you can take heed. My podcast is likely going to be a time capsule, and I will use my first amendment right as far as I can take it for as long as this is possible. Don’t take it for granted, because it is going to be worse before it gets better.
I would be remiss if I would not say that it is extremely frustrating to record this podcast. I really did not want to do it, but the fact is that I am engaging with those who have platforms, and most of them are really off the mark. I engage with them directly, and I guess they are “too big” to dignify an answer.

Meanwhile they react to what I am warning them, when the actual thing I was warning them about inevitably happens. It is like calling somebody to say to slow down before they crash onto the brick wall, and they send you a voice mail, and see them crash. I see that EVERY F*CKING DAY! Hence, I’ll say my piece – and I have a lot to say. But as I said, it seems that we are going to hit these brick walls over and over again. Please help me change that fate by sharing these words. We are on in this together, like it or not. All I can do is doing the best I can. HLC
