Trump Might Want to Tank the Economy For Better Refinancing Interest rates on 1/2 Billion in His Loans Coming Due Soon (www.reddit.com)

Trump stands to benefit significantly if the economy deteriorates because he has nearly half a billion dollars in debt coming due. Lower interest rates would ease the financial pressure on him, and the Federal Reserve isn’t currently inclined to cut rates. However, if the economy tanks, the Fed would be forced to respond with rate reductions — directly benefiting Trump’s financial situation. This explains why Trump seems unconcerned about stock market losses — they serve his greater, self-serving intentions.

Or, it’s easy to buy the dip if you can cause the dip.
