The economy has been crashing more and more as time goes on but Trump's plans sounds like they'll push things into new a level.

History isn't predetermined, but I've been reading about the history of fascism and I imagine it will be somewhat similar to what happened in Germany in the 1930s.

We'll see more inflation, workers rights repealed, the proletarianization of the "middle class" especially those not unionized. Government will probably intervene when some companies start collapsing, but it will never nationalize these companies ensuring that the profits are always private. There will also be need of a scapegoat for all these crises so lots of violence against the poor and minorities unfortunately
