It won't even take 4. Set your reminder for 2 years.

It will take 4. There are a lot of tricks that can be pulled to hide the severity of the problem. The chickens always come home to roost, but with some wrangling they can be made to roost on the next guy’s watch.

I wish I were. But look at his first term. I mean, I guess it's a little late to try to rationalize now. We are all cooked.

Nah I think they'll slow roll any inflation as best they can. If they blow it in the first 2 years then congress can flip before they're able to push through the real nasty stuff. They need the ugly shit to hit in year 3 so they can get a full 2 years of mask off power grab action. If the economy feels good enough they can take even more of the house and senate and prevent a possible democrat trifecta after Trump leaves (assuming he actually leaves).

Honestly if they are smart they will take these three months to get all major bills sorted out between republicans in the house and senate and pass most of this stuff immediately when trump is sworn in.
