Trump Resumes Effort to Destroy Economy

38 comments

Is Trump going to successfully destroy the economy therefore proving he is good at something?
- He's always been good at fucking up everything he touches.
  
  Also known as the Mierdas Touch
- proving he is good at something?
  He is absolutely excellent and damaging the US. It'd be a wet dream for leaders of groups like Al Quaeda or ISIS etc to cause a tenth of the harm Trump has caused to this country.
- He has a strong history of bankrupting casinos

When did he pause?
- The markets recovered for a bit when the tarrifs were lowered.
  In order to profit from this, he and his pals need to sell high and buy low. They already profited immensely by selling just before the tarrifs crashed the economy, and then buying back stupid low after the tarrifs crashed the economy. Then selling again after the economy shot back up after tarrifs were lowered.
  Expect this to keep happening. This is what a transfer of wealth looks like.
  
  Economy is something else than the stockmarket. In fact, I'd say the two have absolutely nothing in common anymore. The stockmarket is a casino, with Joe Average losing everything once in a while.

Now that's how you write a damn headline. Straight to the point.

Somebody is going to shoot his fat ass
- Unfortunately so far only republicans have the violent tendencies and willingness to die to make the attempts... and also they just aren't competent enough.
  
  so far
  Every single time I check the news, it's with hope that I'll see a headline that breaks that trend.
- One can only hope.

He (and/or his family) is/are playing the roller coaster somehow. This was all entirely predictable. He has both the power to tip the scales and the ethical void to scoop money out of whichever side is higher that day.
- Its quite obvious

Glad I have relatively recent hardware and wasn’t planning any upgrades any time soon. Fucking madness.
- ICE breaks down your door and steals all your electronics

I find that quote dubious, did he really stop calling him “Tim Apple”?

Blyat!

Here we go again...

Wonder what Putin told him to do in their recent phone conversation...

I really can't read all this for my mental health
Someone gimme a tldr if important enough pls
- More tariffs. More chaos. Apparently Tim Apple forgot to ~~bribe~~ buy enough $trump coin
  
  Another calculated hit to the stock market so the super wealthy can buy at the dip and profit again before trump reverses it and the stock market skyrockets again, further inflating this garbage bubble

awesome

No .............
The American government is allowing this orange fascist to do whatever he wants
The American people aren't doing or saying anything to oppose it
One man doesn't have that much power, power is given by a group of people who just stand aside and do nothing to stop the person who is doing these things.
- You clearly have no idea what you're talking about. You may want to do a bit more research next time before shitting all over the people of entire country.
  
  I have my sympathies for the American people .... as individuals you guys are great .... but as a country, it's a dumpster fire that no one wants to put out.
- Someone doest read the news.
  Or do you only watch media run by for-profit corporations?
