If you watch some of the video about china and everywhere else except major cities, the entire country is EMPTY. New infrastructure and new apartment buildings EVERYWHERE and no one to use it. It's just bunch of old people and that's it.

It's totally fucked.

If trump destroys the major cities, it's game over.

If I'm understanding the situation:
Hollywood is in the gutter
Lots of foreign outsourcing is happening to save costs.
Foreign films are dominating
Hollywood needs protecting to protect American soft power

In a way, it reminds me of this video

Trump has or is going to destroy:

1. Unelected (but connected) bureaucratic managerial class
2. Degenerated Hollywood Pedophiles
3. Communist Chink Party
4. Eurofags
5. Illegal Rapefugees.
6. ???? (more to come)

GREATEST. PRESIDENT. EVER.

You don’t even need to dig into x accounts and shit, CNBC and Bloomberg are carrying stories about the factory closures, now.

The speed at which they switched from “nuh uh Trump is just hurting America” to “oh-em-gee, he’s being so MEAN to China!!” defies fucking physics

Currently he's trying to save Hollywood (from itself), so not quite buddy. Remember he's still a movie star:
 
got to love when people care
The Israeli company behind the modified Signal app used by the Trump administration has been hacked.

TeleMessage’s backend panel was accessed using credentials found in intercepted data. The hacker exposed archived messages and contact info for U.S. officials.

The hack reveals that archived chat logs are not end-to-end encrypted between the modified messaging app and the final archive destination controlled by the TeleMessage customer.

Commenting on the Israeli modification of Signal adopted by the US government,
@signalapp
told
@404media
that “We cannot guarantee the privacy or security properties of unofficial versions of Signal.”
 
I think it would take a lot of money to get old Alcatraz up to snuff.
Ok, and who will pay for it? Anyone who's been there knows it was a dumb idea to build a prison there in the first place. The cost of operating it back in the day was insane. This is literally a retarded idea.
It's completely impractical to open Alcatraz again.
TBH this is kind of dumb. Alcatraz was closed for good reason
Alcatraz is not up to modern code in any way shape or form

I'll assume it's just a joke unless he brings it up again.
here's a current list of news agencies that had an article about reopening alcatraz (and why that's bad):
BBC
MSNBC
USA Today
CNN
NBC
The National Desk
Sky News
Washington Post
Time Magazine
The Guardian
Reuters
AP News
Axios
Politico

Trump tweets out shower thoughts and everyone goes ballistic, generating white noise and spending energy that could have been used for actual attacks on his policies. every time

he can't keep getting away with it

What sort of stimulus can they even realistically pursue? Consumption is difficult as hell to drive in an economy that has effectively turned significant portions of its domestic workforce into a second class with the migrant worker and municipal registry crap, those people will attempt to invest it to get out of their second class status, they're not gonna start buying temu crap en mass. Pumping money into the consumer side will just hit the already fucked property market, or outflow as people try to buy property domestically or abroad. Pumping it into the producer side won't help because there's not a lower effective cost of product they can subsidize that'll restore demand, more attempted outflow will only increase tariffs. And pumping those goods into the domestic market is what's fucking them in the first place.

This is a genuine question, because I've not seen a situation like this before and I'm not sure what they can do about it.

I'll say this on Alcatraz given my background: it would need a structural check given its age. But given it's made of stone and brick, it's likely solid. Up to code? Lol. This would be like bringing the Iowas back online. Extremely expensive. But possible. It depends how much Trump gives a fuck.

The problem, if you ditch abstraction and look at reality for a second, is that a shit ton of Chinese people have made depressed wages to produce shit to sell overseas, and so if you take that away, not a lot of people have money to buy shit.

China needs an actual middle class to absorb all this shit. They don't have nearly enough.
