Old Ma has recently become increasingly intolerant. At first, he still managed to maintain some dignity by having his brother subtly criticize the people around Chuanzi. Later, he began to criticize some tariff policies himself, and after a fierce confrontation with Bessen, he was quickly marginalized. Trump's tariff policies after taking office, the decoupling with China, and the recent steel tariffs all strike at Musk's Achilles' heel. Given the completely different circumstances, it's fair to say that Musk is truly an idealist.

Logically, he should have realized from the beginning that Trump's policy propositions were entirely contrary to his own. Suffering economic losses would be the lightest consequence, and if he continued to attack the Beautiful Act, he might even face political persecution.

Emotionally, I can deeply understand Musk. The government spending he painstakingly reduced with DOGE was reversed overnight by the Beautiful Act. All his political legacy was wiped out, and all his support for Trump turned into clownish behavior. This is a huge blow to the self-esteem of someone who could become the world's richest person, an unprecedented frustration. He is now publicly criticizing Congress for trying to bankrupt America, and there are hardline senators openly declaring war. The subsequent voting on the Beautiful Act may encounter obstacles.

Based on the exponential growth of the U.S. government's deficit, a collapse of U.S. debt and the dollar turning into toilet paper is just a matter of time. However, this time frame is still quite long for individuals, especially for cryptocurrency traders. We should take advantage of this theme to repeatedly profit, sell short during severe speculation, and go long when there's relief—it's that simple 🤡
