Financial collapse is coming. This has been in the cards for decades; it has been written about endlessly and the relevant factors described by many experts and observers.
America's national debt is $39 trillion as of April 2026 -- and that doesn't count the much LARGER hidden debt of unfunded liabilities (Medicare, Social Security, VA benefits, etc etc).
When combined with the official national debt, total federal obligations could surpass $200 trillion.
Most people (including many here, I expect) would take the first sentence in this post as hyperbole. I assure you, it isn't. We are headed for a financial crisis that will make the Great Depression of the 1930s look like good times.
Correction: We WOULD BE headed for such a disaster if our President were anyone but Donald Trump.
I don't know, at least in any detail, how Trump plans to save America (and probably much of the world, as usual) from this seemingly unavoidable nightmare, nor do I expect it to be smooth sailing.
Naturally, Trump's push to cut regulatory overload, root out America's massive corruption, quit spending trillions of dollars fighting "climate change", and otherwise stop throwing our money down the drain (or worse), and other common-sense measures will help. By themselves, though, they'd not stop the collapse.
But that's not all Trump's doing, and planning to do. I'm pretty sure that some of those EOs that Trump authored in his first administration (such as one issued 12/21/2017 blocking assets by various classes of criminals, here and abroad) will be involved. Probably something related to the Federal Reserve, also. And . . . well, lots of things.
But Trump, the #1 modern student of The Art of War, has always kept his plans to himself, giving hints which may or may not be disinformation, but never letting the enemy see enough to really prepare. He surprises us all, constantly, whenever the issue involves conflict.
And putting America back on the path to prosperity DOES involve conflict, because our financial troubles have been created by thieves and tyrants working on a global scale.
I look forward (with some trepidation) to seeing how it all plays out.
Below, the article that triggered this particular train of thought:

Remember: In a Crisis, Everyone Will Consider Themselves 'The Good Guys'
The state has two monopolies it must protect whatever the cost: the monopoly on decreeing what is legal tender and on force.
We're entering an era in which push comes to shove will lead to immovable objects encountering irresistible forces. All sorts of verities and vanities will be bulldozed as kicking the can down the road descends into desperation to stave off collapse, a desperation that unleashes second order effects the desperate did not anticipate. The only responses at this late stage are even more desperate, so desperation is self-reinforcing.
Where you see problems, DJT and the WHs see opportunity. The end is coming, but it's going to be for them. That's going to happen when we hit the precipice.

I AM Q through and through. WE have been SAVED by the Plan and we are ALL part of it. DO I think we will ALL have to help implement the change ? YEP
There are a lot of moving pieces to this puzzle, but I see a prosperity wave and not a financial collapse. That is why I started using the Golden Age of Trump long before he did. I am good playing all of the pieces in my mind. Since I first saw the Golden Age coming, other positive pieces have been added to the puzzle. The democrats are fighting against it, but one by one, the effectiveness of their tools is melting away.
An easier way to grasp it: start listing positive what ifs. The how is complex, the what ifs are not.
Yep. That is why you should buy a data center today. Or get your ai company going yesterday. For all of us multi-multi- millionaires and billionaires it's gonna be great!

(They) have done so much fuckery in the past few years that few will fall for their tricks anymore.
(Bubble) In 2008, they KNEW that their subprime mortgage portfolios weren't triple-A. Yet they hyped them anyways, and the (cabal controlled) credit bureaus rated them "AAA". Duped investors bought them up like hotcakes.
(Crash) The math they used to call these subprime-mortage backed funds "AAA" depended on the probabilities of default being independent. When an entire sector is struggling, the math no longer worked. Banks failed. Employment shrank. Spending decreased. More foreclosures happened. It spiralled into a massive crash.
(Steal) People who couldn't afford to pay their mortgages lost both their house and their equity in the property. The government bailed out the cabal-controlled firms doing this. The Lehman Brothers got no such bailout and went under. But the infestment firms that had started this mess got off scot free.
(Lie) Then they told us it was all a mistake, that it would never happen again, and that any supposition that it was intentional was all a big conspiracy theory.
(Repeat) Interest rates dropped to all-time lows a few years later, fueling another wave of speculative investment. Then Covid hit, interest rates went up, and many people lost everything.
Q #4962 should be taught in every school, every year, and posted in every public government building. Nice elaboration of the post, too.
That might happen, even if it's just to show how screwed up our system used to be.
President Trump also wanted to cut significant funding to the CTR Program, originally called, Nunn-Luga Program, initiated by 'CIA' George W Bush, but was unsuccessful because his proposals were overridden by a bipartisan congressional action (RINOS) The CIA, envisioned by Truman, only wanted a modest intelligence body, but the influential Texas Dulles brothers, pushed it toward a far more aggressive, covert role. President Kennedy was going to "splinter the CIA into a thousand pieces and scatter it to the wind", just before his assassination. Remember, it was reported that Georgie boy Bush, was seen in Dallas, at the time of the assassination. Edit: The Dulles were prominent partners with the powerful Wall Street firm, Sullivan and Cromwell.
I have no idea what Trump's plan is other than in broad strokes like ending the FED, balanced budget and living within our means, etc. (If he still or ever believed that). Trump gets smeared in the MSM for having five bankrupcies or whatever but to me that experience is an asset. He knows the country is bankrupt but has the experience and plan to get the US through it in one piece.
The situation reminds me of the wise saying that if you borrow a million dollars from the bank and you can't pay then YOU have a problem. If you borrow $100 million dollars from the bank and can't pay then WE have a problem, i.e. with a big enough debt the bank's future is also on the line. I think this is part of the strategy behind increasing the military spending to $1.5T before the credit line is cutoff. We've all probably heard of people who, when facing bankrupcy, run up their debt and credit cards before the inevitable.
Another angle is that there is no way to discharge $39T in explicit debt plus $160T in implicit debt obligations without some pain. If you run the numbers there is no possible way this can ever be paid off even with the most optimistic assumptions. The only path forward in clearing a bankrupcy is a mix of debt defaults, assets sales, growth and new income, i.e. fighting over who takes the loss + production. Note that more debt is not part of the solution. Moreover, this is the the last boomer presidency and once the younger gens take power they aren't going to be saddled with these debts. It would immediately lead to a revolt and probably a revolution that could destroy the country which I assume Trump is trying to avoid.
I don’t think he plans on paying any of it. I think they will print money like crazy and kick off hyperinflation, so the debt becomes worthless. I think in the process, everyone’s debt is wiped out. Now what happens to people’s saving I have no idea. Probably there will be winners and losers. It’s either hyperinflation to wipe out the debt and a return to the gold standard, or decades of crushing depression.
I expect they have a plan for all that.
President Trump signed a EO for a Sovereign Wealth Fund a while back.
People on X were saying, "How is he going to fund it?"
You mention the EO he signed in his first term, "Executive Order Blocking the Property of Persons Involved in Serious Human Rights Abuse or Corruption"
Trump signed that EO for the Sovereign Wealth Fund on February 3, 2025. It has been sitting there for over a year and it has not been funded yet.
If you had to guess, where do you think the funding would come from?
Obama Foundation has assets of $1.1 Billion
Obama personal wealth is $70 Million
Dick Cheyne has $100 Million.
James Comey $16 Million.
Susan Rice $50 Million.
James Clapper $10 Million
Valerie Jarrett $15 Million.
Clinton Foundation has assets of $300 million
Clinton's personal assets $240 Million
Biden personal assets $10 Million.
Bush Foundation has assets of $700 Million.
Bush personal assets $40 Million.
Vatican has $6 Billion in its last financial statement.
Pharmacutical industry owes big money, covid vaccinations/autism.
Bill Gates is worth $100 Billion
This is just the tip of the iceberg.
Take everything Gates has got. He is the fkn devil-spawn reptilian hybrid of death.
C'mon, tell us how you REALLY feel about the man!
Future = GOLDen Age
We’ve been told many times by Q and Q+
This is all well and good, but my biggest source of eyebrow raising comes from the political posturing going on about affordability that could very well cost Republicans the midterms.
The only politician I’ve seen actively speaking out against data centers and their massive costs to their communities in MO, for example, is Cori freaking Bush. Same thing in PA, where I have family. A Democrat is the only one who is actively campaigning against these surveillance centers that hike up electricity and water costs for people already feeling the pinch because of the Iran War.
When the midterms come, if something drastic doesn’t change, we will lose the House, even with the SCOTUS rulings on gerrymandering. No one gives a crap about national security when you can’t afford gas and groceries.
What happens after that? With yet another two years of legislative impasse?
I feel the same way, about data centers and their draining of the water tables for cooling and draining of the capital markets for their construction, among other things.
And yes, RINOs and The Compromised generally are still infesting government at pretty much every level.
As I said, I don't expect the next few years to be smooth sailing -- and in life, there is always the chance that things will go wrong unexpectedly. Ask the dinosaurs . . .
Still, I am optimistic, if also a bit scared. What a time to be alive!
This is fear based speculation.
I don't think you're out of line to think that, given the fact that we're all on mushroom food right now.
However....
A few things are worth noting:
If you dug deep enough, you'll find these fall under military and national security
Trump already said he wanted the USA to be the largest BTC repository in the world paraphrasing
The "AI race" is allegedly the most important race right now, for several reasons, including implications regarding the ultimate "high ground" aka space
Just imagine the illustrious "new financial system" where billions of transactions a day need to take place digitally... Don't you think that requires some serious infrastructure?
These "data centers" are not one trick ponies...I would imagine they cover surveillance, monetary infrastructure, golden dome/defense and other things.
I guess the biggest question we need to ask ourselves in this regard, is this:
Because of you don't...the demons that are being permitted to run wild with our imaginations are going to pull our outlook deep down into the bowels of hell with doom & dystopia.
I hear your fears, fren...I REALLY do! But take a step back and ask yourself if Trump's EVER done us wrong so far...I know given the track record of most humans that seems like a tall order, but Trump is an exceptional man.
These AI data centers are akin to a sharp knife...They can be used to help or harm, equally. Which one is partially up to us.

lol. The meme and text editing on this site is beyond annoying now.
They’re planning to put one of these next to the Limerick Nuclear Power Plant, where I have family. In the state where we already had Three Mile Island because PA is inept when it comes to infrastructure.
I find it quite the case of mental gymnastics to suggest putting a known water hog that is a data data center next to a nuclear power plant at risk of melting down a smart move whether you’re analyzing from a national security angle or infrastructure angle.
In St. Louis, Mayor Cara Spencer said she’d veto any data center plan within the city’s jurisdiction.
She went to dinner with a bunch of bureaucrats in London, and, suddenly, the city agreed to the plans to put a data center in the Armory overnight.
I’ve been waiting to see BTC gain any momentum whatsoever that the crypto crew suggests will allow it to become the dominant currency. I think hell will freeze over before we get there.
I do not want BTC to become even more popular, because additional transactions will make it that much easier to obscure blackmail in the blockchain due to increased volume.
Trump is one person. I’ll get back to believing in all of this a bit more when literally anyone faces justice for the treason that occurred under Obama or the Epstein files.
Trust but verify is a saying for a reason.
Ah...and there it is. 👋
We’ll see.
With God, all things are possible. We have a President who believes and is being lead by him. If you are not a believer then hence the saying if you do not believe in something you will fall for anything. Our Country was founded on belief in the Almighty and there are enough of us that can, will and are praying now. Together we can do anything thru Jesus Christ who sustains us
