Here are the main important points to consider:
Comex has lately been forwarding contracts to London, indicating it's in a state of technical default - The banker's absolutely despise metals skyrocketing out of the blue without a perceived crisis.
The stock market is overbought and due for a correction, but like all rigged markets, they have to fabricate a reason why it corrects.
The closer to the end of Trump's term the market blows up, the worse it is for him politically (especially if he plans to run again), so if it's due to correct, he wants it to blow up as early in his term as possible so it can be blamed on past administrations.
It appeared they were trying to start military conflicts to blame these financial events on and couldn't really pull it off, so starting some type of constitutional crisis where Obama era abuses of power come to light where Obama himself might face jail is a great substitution to that. The so called "deep state" is obviously down to sacrifice their grade Z actor minions once in a while.
