The Trap Is Set: \u201cBoth Sides Are Utterly Unprepared For What\u2019s Coming\u201d<\/a><\/h3>\n
<\/div>\n
If there\u2019s one thing that should be absolutely clear in the current political environment in America, it\u2019s that \u00a0there exists a deep division between the people of this nation. Both of sides of the aisle argue vehemently about what\u2019s best going forward, sometimes to the point of physical violence. And though the election of President Donald Trump speaks volumes about the sentiment of Americans, the following video report from\u00a0Storm Clouds Gathering<\/a>\u00a0warns that both sides are utterly unprepared for what\u2019s coming.<\/div>\n

Is Trump going to usher in a new era of prosperity and innovation?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Or is he going to be the one standing in the center ring\u00a0when the circus tent comes down?<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2026<\/p>\n

Some voted for Trump as a political Molotov cocktail\u2026 Trump is a business man, you say\u2026 He\u2019s going to make things happen\u2026 cut taxes\u2026cut regulation\u2026 invest a trillion dollar in infrastructure\u2026 punish companies that move factories overseas\u2026 rebuild the military\u2026 restore relations with Russia\u2026 start a trade war with China\u2026 and a new arms race would create jobs\u2026 there\u2019s a lot to unpack there\u2026 and those debates are worth having.<\/p>\n

However,\u00a0much of this hinges on a variable that Trump doesn\u2019t control\u2026 The Federal Reserve.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2026Word is, the Fed is leaning towards increasing interest rates aggressively in 2017 and may engage in anti-inflationary measures to offset Trump\u2019s infrastructure plans\u2026 that means the flow of money and credit is about to be tightened\u2026<\/p>\n

It also means the Fed is setting itself up for a showdown.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
