KILL SWITCH – THE U.S. DOLLAR END GAME

Claims that recent trade “talks” are the final blow that bring down the U.S. Dollar seem to underestimate how severe the consequences will be if the dollar is truly on its last breath.

Is this yet another empty threat by global elites, or are they truly willing to risk all their wealth and power to dethrone the dollar?

The kill switch to end dollar hegemony, and the current financial system, is already known, but does either side have the guts to push the button?

Find out in the latest Milkshakes, Markets, and Madness Show.
