     @PunishedD my guy, one does not make money in real estate with that understanding.
     
     He plays a character and he plays it well. "GDP = good" is the mantra the system has used since the 70s and he likely just decided it was easier to go with it.

     @sickburnbro The Orange Man's sole understanding of macroeconomics and monetary policy is "stock market go up = healthy country". What could he possibly have to say about Bitcoin?

     @sickburnbro Real estate is localized real politik. You can do incredibly well on instincts and understanding alone. Trump pulled it off with marketing, deal making, a lot of capital, and being personable in a very face-to-face business.
     
     His instincts are good, like focusing on manufacturing and bad trade deals, but he rarely has a complex theory behind it. I don't buy the "playing a part" theory, the guy legitimately thinks stock market and GDP are good indicators, great indicators, the best indicators ever (because they went up while he was in office).
     
     I'll bet 500 Internet Points that the only thing he says about Bitcoin is that it's the best coin, really the best ever. We need it because it gives us freedom, and freedom is good, and I like freedom so vote for me. Even odds side bet on him promising a random EO about crypto, that he won't be able to answer questions about.

     @PunishedD large real estate is more than that because you have to deal with large banks to secure financing.
