Your Money May Not Be Worth Anything in a Year

I’ll be honest, I’ve never been one to concern-troll over America’s debt.

Debt hawks have been apoplectic about the U.S. dollar and America’s debt burden ever since we left the gold standard. 

All through the '90s and 2000s — and especially amid the 2008 financial crisis and Tea Party movement — I generally ignored the doomsayers. 

And to be fair, the debt crisis that’s been prophesied has failed to materialize in the five decades it’s been foretold of. 

Rumors of the dollar’s death were greatly exaggerated, it seemed.

However, I now fear that may be changing. 

Looking around, I don’t just see America’s debt climbing to unsustainable levels and a weakening dollar; I see a concerted effort to bring about its demise. 

I mean it.

This might sound crazy but I actually think Donald Trump and the Silicon Valley billionaires in his corner are actively trying to destroy the dollar and force us all into crypto — a money supply THEY can control and monopolize.

Sound like an unhinged conspiracy? 

Well, let’s look at the facts… 

Over the weekend President Trump secured the passage of his spending bill — a sprawling monstrosity that’s bound to add $3 trillion to our national debt. 

This after Trump saddled America with $8 trillion of debt during his first term.

The national debt now stands at a whopping $37 trillion — and Trump alone is responsible for racking up 30% of that figure in just five years of governance. 

And he doesn’t think that’s a problem. And in fact, he’s going to add more.

We’ve got three more years of this. 

And as the conversation around the debt has come back into focus, I was reminded of something Trump said back in 2016. 

Asked about the debt on the 2016 campaign trail Trump said this: “People said I want to go and buy debt and default on debt, and I mean, these people are crazy. This is the United States government. First of all, you never have to default because you print the money, I hate to tell you, OK?” [Emphasis mine.]

This has been the plan all along. Run up the debt — and print our way out of it. 

Except Trump has taken it to a whole new level. 

Which brings me to my next point…

Look at what he’s doing to the Fed. 

Trump has been browbeating Jerome Powell for months, if not years. 

Specifically, he wants lower interest rates. But not just moderately lower rates, drastically lower interest rates. 

He even sent this hand-scrawled note to the Fed chairman, and it really caught my attention…

This is real. They even held it up at a press briefing to brag about it. 

It’s also insane. 

The current Federal Funds rate is 4.25%–4.5%, and Trump wants it cut by a full 3%.

For an institution that typically adjusts its rate in increments of 0.25–0.5% at a time, a cut that steep is unthinkable outside of a full-blown economic crisis. 

Not only that, but it would result in a massive spike of inflation that would make what we saw post-pandemic look like a speed bump. 

The dollar, which has already fallen 10% against the British pound and 15% against the euro so far this year, would completely tank. 

But again, Trump doesn’t care. He’s going to get what he wants. And to do it, he’s going to jettison Jerome Powell as soon as he’s able and install a stooge who will do his bidding. 

"If I think somebody's going to keep the rates where they are, or whatever, I'm not going to put them in,” Trump said. “I'm going to put somebody that wants to cut rates."

Make no mistake, this is happening. 

Trump is going to torch the dollar. 

And that raises the question of why…

Could it be — and I’m just spitballing here — that Donald Trump, his family, and all his biggest donors are all-in on crypto?

Because if that’s the case, who cares about the dollar?

It’d actually be better if it collapsed.

It seems relevant then that… 

• Trump Media and Technology Group, whose stock is majority owned by Trump, just unveiled plans to raise $2.5 billion to finance a Bitcoin buying spree.

• Trump has launched his own crypto memecoin — $Trump — and held a private dinner to solicit high-dollar donors to buy it.

• That the Trump administration has eased regulations, pausing or ending 12 cases involving cryptocurrency fraud and making crypto available for retirement plans.

• And that members of the Trump family and administration have made numerous appearances at crypto conventions around the globe. 

So, yeah, if you’re all-in on crypto, I guess you don’t really care if the U.S. dollar goes down in flames. 

You can just herd everyone into Trump coins and Bitcoin and any other crypto assets that you own.

That’s why I, personally, am looking to lower my dollar exposure. It’s on the way down regardless of where we get a full-blown collapse or not. And unfortunately, the odds of a currency crisis are rising as quickly as our nation’s debt pile.

And it’s why I’d encourage investors to get serious about crypto before it’s too late.

Specifically, I think NatGold is a good place to start. 

NatGold is a digital token like Bitcoin…

Except, unlike Bitcoin, it’s actually backed by a physical asset. 

Gold.

And with gold prices soaring and the dollar diving, NatGold is poised to blow up.
