It connects debt, inflation, AI, automation, tariffs, money printing, and the quiet shift toward blockchain backed systems into one bigger picture. The focus is not hype or politics, but how these forces actually affect everyday people, small businesses, and long term stability. It is a grounded breakdown of why things feel harder, why prices keep rising, and what may be coming next if the system keeps moving in the same direction.Trump Tracker documenthttps://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1VNPGRB5ZcrxxIk_27Mmbe10nxc5wyCuHJPpD4ZGSvEU/edit?usp=sharingSupport the show
