    The sale of American government bonds is doing poorly. This is a major concern, because who will ultimately foot the bill for the enormous deficits Trump is currently causing? In the past, other countries did that, but they are stopping because Trump enjoys absolutely no confidence. Pension funds outside America also realize that their holdings in US government debt have become a dangerous asset. That leaves the American FED. But that means money will literally be fabricated. Meanwhile, the interest rates on government bonds are going up, to see if that will attract buyers.
