If all the rumors about the FEMA camps have any credibility, it might suggest that you are - sadly - correct. A trade war with China could also be a lovely trigger for the economy to collapse. It could be easily pinned at the evil Chinese or the stupid Trump. Also deagel.com's predictions fit this theory, from 300 down to 50 million Americans. And when the culling of the flock is completed, they have 5G ready to perfectly control the rest.
It is going to be interesting...
Any trade war with China started decades ago, when they began selling us steel at below cost in order to bankrupt our steel industry. That's an act of machiavellian sophistication, following Sun Tzu's recommendations to prepare the battlefield in order to win the war.
I do not like the Deagel.com prediction!
Thanks!
