Let The Stock Market Burn!!!

New winger narrative is "Short term pain for long term gain."

Why is that? Because Trump says it will be that way. Narrative keeps evolving but people keep drinking the Kool Aid anyway. Hook, line and sinker (yah, for Kool Aid. Whatever).

What I find VERY interesting is that Trump is claiming that 50 countries are now pursuing trade talks. 

He's got such a bad record with dishonesty that his claims aren't making any difference today whatsoever w the traders. 

Zero credibility. Zero respect. Keep golfing.

Yeah...I would expect 50 countries have called(and in that they're likely including the whole EU).

But you see it with Vietnam. They don't have a coherent trade policy to start with. Vietnam going to 0% isn't good enough. 

 

And of course people are just regurgitating his or other MAGA talking points.

When you're in a cult, it's not easy to admit...you're in a cult. I mean, you seriously have people saying 32000 isn't that bad because...Biden was at 32000. That's a lot of what you're dealing with. Just mindless nonsense like that. They don't know any better.

 

You have the "we'll see what happens," MAGA because...they don't want to believe anyone is really this dumb. 

And then you have the 'Tariffs don't matter anyway,' MAGA which is a rare bird, seldom seen, but I don't even know how to reconcile that any longer.

 

Oh, and the "but Bernie wanted..." while omitting Bernie proposed 1/11th of the tariffs on ONE Country.

He genuinely doesn't understand how the markets work or how to read a basic chart. 

It's MUCH more...relaxing to just put him on ignore and then if you want to see what he said...you can, but you can pass over most of it, but arguing that 32,000 ISN'T a disaster because the market has been at that number before is...astoundingly stupid.

The only reason you’d ignore someone is because you’re getting your A$$ handed to you.

Oh...that sucks.

I didn't know that. Everytime I click on "show me this post," it's...just comically stupid.

By the way, I present...the Islands that China is going to use to circumvent the tariffs(per Jimmy). They are going to ship to this Island...that no man has stepped foot on since 2016 and they'll just send it off to 'Murica!

Well, I'm not going to mock Trump for putting tariffs on that island populated only by penguins. Those penguins have been walking around all puffed up on the importance of their guano dating back to the Guano wars of the late 1800s. You can tell how much they suck by looking at their leader.

If Trump started marketing some sort of poisonous Kool-Aid that smelled and tasted like diarrhea and asked his brainwashed cultists to buy it and guzzle it down by the gallon they would without hesitation.

At least in your hypothetical, he's still SAYING it's Kool-Aid... when he just asked about "cleaning the insides" with bleach," people...actually did it.

Trump could also say how much he loves oxygen, and it's the greatest gas ever, and libtards would suffocate themselves by the masses. Works both ways...

Trump probably doesn't know what oxygen is.

I seem to remember you clutching your pearls and feigning outrage when I called Jimmy and idiot or a moron...but "libtard," liberal-***I am an idiot and can't use a better adjective***...?

It's always been so lazy to me. It's like MAGATS or calling the Vikings the Viqueens. Just the lowest common denominator. 

 

That said... even for you, it has to feel hard calling "Libtards" stupid at a point when our President decided self immolation was a GREAT idea for the United States Economy...

Republicans LOVE this guy though. 

Why don't we listen to him?

(You can also skip to 3 minutes in if you don't want to hear how stupid he thinks Trump's plan is, how it's merely bad if he has a plan to get out of this and JUST talk about trade deficits).

Well, it was @Bigbrogwho made a comment about talking disrespectfully to people saying something about not being able to make their point without name calling...and you give that the big brain like, remember?

That seems like that's you agreeing with him and that perspective?

 

In any event, I don't actually care much. My feelings certainly weren't hurt. It's pretty normal banter...not quite the same as after saying my Mother was going into Hospice, Jimmy mocking that....which also didn't "hurt" my feelings so much as help inform me of who I was dealing with. 

 

Libtard in a stupid debate...it's stupid, but ultimately meaningless. 
The other? That's...pretty tacky. 

Still...thought I'd make the point as it seems like many of us Non-Trump supporters are the ones who are thought of as the emotional and insulting and I find the truth to be...at the very least...closer to the middle(I'd say it swings father further the other way, but lets jut say the middle).
