Absolutely. There's a number of similar analyses.
Such as, the poorest 20% of the populus is being fleeced to make the top 2% richer.
I honestly think Trump doesn't have his head in the right place to see it coming and regulate behaviours so it doesn't happen.
In covid era he handed some cash out; that's as sophisticated as he can manage but the rednecks can point at it..
It doesn't have to be like that, but that IS the default outcome from a capitalist mechanism.
To make it different is counter intuitive, you have to throw the proverbial spanner in the works, stop it, and alter it. Most don't - look at Ireland.
He's focusing on the moves foreign companies exporting into the US are making to reduce the damage the tariffs are doing to shop prices, but those are minor. The man's a compulsive liar. His dollar (DXY) has weakened 15% since xmas.
Stagflation ? Maybe.
A Djenga column supported until the next announcement from China?
One of the job (eg nonfarm payroll) or inflation numbers could pull a significant block from the tower. T is lining the FED up as the fall boy. Powell has been taking the weight.

I'm guessing Trump hopes the poor simply disappear, if he hits them hard enough. He's banking on a get rich quick - let subsequent presidents deal with the fall out, kinda policy.
Its gonna get messy for sure.

Latest figures (10 mins ago) indicate he's still getting away with it, or his approach is correct. "Don't ask me" which but you get my opinion anyway. I think inflation in the USA will climb like hell.
Don't forget Trump still needs votes, while he's alive. The mid-terms aren't that far off.
I think there will come a point where he will not be able to convince enough poor people that they're better off when they aren't.
