This is like seeing a character take what you know to be a fatal dose of radiation but is still walking around and talking and laughing unaware.

It's just all so stupid.

He could have basically done nothing and people would have given him credit for the good economy that was set up under Biden. But instead, he needed to piss and take a dump all over everything because he's a fucking dunce.

Trump is literally boasting about destroying the working class retirement savings. He is destroying a customer base that we might not be able to get back. Instead of a plague, this time Trump unleashed economic ruin. 7 months ago he was telling us electing Kamala would crash the stock market. Now a crashing stock market is "all part of the plan." Imagine a country as strong as the US, declining like this all because of one lunatic con artist. Destroying things is the one thing Trump is good at

I'm driving the country towards a depression and "it's a beautiful thing to behold"



Add the United States of America to the list of Trump bankruptcies and assorted other failures. Turns out a robust economy and stock market is "woke". Must be time for NBC and CNN to run some segments telling everyone Biden was too old.

It's sad to see our president take so many shots at ex-presidents, I understand the parties never got along. But Obama didn't trash Bush Jr, and Biden only trashed Trump when it was something direct. Trump manages to throw in something about Sleep Joe or Barack in random Tweets just to spite them. Even something like a tragic hurricane, he'll slip in a comment about Biden during the press conference.

And the MAGAs were who crying "I can't afford to live!" under Biden are happy with the tariffs, which will make everything more expensive. And these brain-dead cult members are suddenly financial wizards who are telling me I just don't understand tariffs lol. I'll be honest, I really don't, but I understand them better than MAGAs. Bringing jobs back to America sounds fantastic, but American workers want $20 an hour to flip fuckin burgers. I can't wait for an American TV manufacturer to pop up so I can go spend $5k on a TV that's worth $2k. Anyone who struggled under Biden is going to be homeless under Trump.

Make it make sense.

We hold these truths to be self evident:
MAGA and their leader Trump's IQ combined does not equal Obama's IQ!

Therefore all men are not created equal!

cue.. the next American revolution!

Liberation day is working! Trump is liberating you from your money! His own 9-11 terrorist attack on the USA and the worlds economy.

"If Kamala wins, you are three days away from the start of a 1929 style economic depression. I believe that"

- Donald Trump November 2, 2024

In a related story, Vladimir Putin was admitted to a Moscow hospital for a broken hand sustained by his nonstop "high fiving" with his staff.

If people haven’t learned yet that with republicans everything is projection then they aren’t ever going to learn.

If you want to know what republicans and trump are doing or planning to do, just listen to what they are accusing democrats of doing.

I can see brokerage firms issuing circuit breaker alerts as U.S. stock market futures extend their 3-day slide to more than 15% crash territory.

Boy, this "Genius who bankrupted casinos" experiment is really, really going well!

It's not all because of him. The GOP House and Senate that could end the 'emergency' allowing him to set the tariffs have America's blood on their hands too.

Kristen Welker: - "President Donald Trump promised that he was going to improve the economy starting on day one. He said prices are going to come down. More than 160 million Americans, Mr. secretary, as you know, are invested in the market. Many of them have spent their lives saving for their retirement," Welker said. "What is your message to Americans who want to retire right now and have just seen their lifetime savings drop significantly?"

Scott Bessent: - "I think that's a false narrative. Americans who want to retire right now, Americans who have put away for years in their savings accounts, I think they don't look at the day-to-day fluctuations of what's happening,"

Typical tone-deaf Marie Antoinette type reply from the richest treasury secretary ever. Saying no one is worried about their 401ks that Trump just crashed. Every time Scott Bessent tries to downplay the damage Trump's policies are doing to everyday Americans, just remember: he's worth over half a billion fucking dollars.

So first I agreed with Rand Paul and Mitch McConnell, and now it is Leon Musk and Charlie Kirk. Wow.

I knew Navarro was a horrible person. And I remember thinking way back in 2017 that Trump could very well bankrupt America. What a total POS.

Care to expand? And do you mean those people in as their opinions are in 2025 or some other point in time?

I really think Trump is going to waffle and blink later this week if we get another big downturn the next couple of trading days. He's going to realize he made too big a move and real people are being affected. He really has no idea what he's doing and what the actual consequences will be. When he realizes this (when the right person/people tell him), he'll back down. He'll try to play it off like "so many countries called me" and "gave up so many things" etc, etc, but the reality will be that he will realize the retardedness of this move and blink.
There are no right people in his cabinet, only yes men.

Ovechkin is a Putin fucker but also Wayne Gretzky who he just beat is a fucking Trump humper. Either way you cut it the top two record goal scorers in the NHL are a piece of shit.
Might explain why I don't follow soccer. Seems like a brutal, nutty sport to me.

The Nasdaq dropped into bear market territory Friday, i.e. 20+% off the market high of Feb. 19, 2025.
