The last financial crisis was nearly 20 years ago, so another one is due soon. I still think it's a bit early, and Trump will probably offset it with by lowering interest rates and (probably) printing even more money. Maybe in 2028-2030 is when we get another big crash.
It's hard to predict how far down the road they can kick this can. The erratic policy that Trump pursues could easily trigger a crash any time.
I'm not sure they're erratic. He seems to just want to make himself even richer, with market manipulation, then leave the mess for someone else to handle. Probably an incompetent Democratic President.
These things aren't mutually exclusive. He runs an erratic policy, but him and his cronies also benefit from the chaos they create.
