     JPOW also said "there's clearly deleveraging going on in hedge funds in leveraged trades" which is a bad sign for those holding and not selling (like most people that have no clue what's in their 401ks but they go to work every day and pay no attention to where there monies are going). Everyone is pissed because the markets are going down, but nobody asks why the markets were going up at a crazy high rate. Maybe, all the leveraging that had happened caused the markets to go up and maybe there's a shit ton of bad bets out there that will be unwounded and those paying no attention will be the bag holders. You know what happens when the hedge funds and banks get bailed out because they made shit bets, right? You watch your portfolio get annihilated while hoards of cash get piled up and bail outs start and then people start to complain when it's already too late.

    kc,

    I've admitted before that during previous administrations, I was AOL. I was much more trusting in our government now matter who was in the oval office. And if I didn't have hope that changes can take place to control this madman, why would I even take part in these discussions. As far as other administrations & the same things happening, I disagree with your statement.

    I don't recall previous administrations attacking our allies with outlandish demands. I don't recall constant threats directed at the media, universities, former government employees, law firms & just us regular folks who want to live united not divided while paying our fair share of taxes. I don't recall any other presidents so blatantly fucking around with the markets or regularly attacking judges on a personal basis. I don't recall an administration taken to court by some many states & businesses. I don't recall such an incompetent, ill prepared, inexperienced cabinet. I've never seen a president give so much power to an unelected person that has caused nothing but chaos. I've never seen a president attack policies that were created to level the playing field regarding employment. I've never seen a president banish people from our country without due process. I don't recall a president that has backtracked on so many issues so early in their term. So I'm just not picking up what you're laying down.

    BTW...it's nice to have a civil conversation while disagreeing on a topic. Thank you for that.

    Goldman Sachs estimate Trump tariffs will bring back 100,000 new manufacturing jobs to the US  but 500,000 other jobs will be destroyed.

    Ahh yes. We should be listening to one of the largest derivatives dealers in the US/World. But lets blame the economy on tariffs and completely forget about derivatives.

    @BigGame90

     Got a question for you...

    Today regarding Norway your boy said ""We just want to keep the relationship the way it is. We've had a great relationship."

    So why did he levy tariffs against Norway?

    I'll check later but maybe you know the answer, does Norway have tariffs towards the US? Are the tariffs Trumps imposing more, less or equal to what is charge to the US? Are the new tariffs Reciprocal Tariffs?

    Trump administration hope of 90 trade deals in 90 days appear unrealistic.  For example, deals with Japan and UK collapsed.  Normally, a trade deal may take months or years.  Meanwhile Pepsi, American airlines, Chipotle, IBM, Procter and Gamble say Trump tariffs are hurting consumers and US economy.  International monetary fund expects lower economic growth.  Citadel CEO Griffin said that Trump trade war erodes America's brand in the world.

    Ive been staring at my TV waiting for the 1 day resolution of Ukraine and Gaza, waiting for inflation to go back under 2 percent and all the global outsourcing issues to be solved on day one.

    Hucksters are only successful if the moronic public believe their lies.

    Norwegians do not have english as their offical language.

    Their tariffs on US is mainly meat products. Trump's recipicol tariff on Norway is 15% compared to South Africa and Uganda at a lower 10%, Congo at 11%. 

    So spare us your racist tirade.

    I believe 90 deals in 90 days is very possible as most tariffs are just window dressing. CHINA is the target and always has been. The majority of "trade deals" will most likely net little for the U.S. and won't be much. And as they get the deals done those on here will scream Trump got nothing. an_roll_laugh

    It is designed to paint China in a corner. China knows it and is threatening those who are willing to deal with Trump.

    USATODAY; Obama campaign made $37 million off of Obama merchandise sales in 2008. 

    Obama-mania really reflects a paradigm shift that's taken place in politics," said Bruce Newman, a marketing professor at DePaul University. "His use of the Internet to generate over $750 million to fuel a (political) campaign has created a host of entrepreneurs selling Obama products."

    Items available with the Obama likeness include all kinds of shirts and hats plus plates, watches, dolls, action figures, puzzles - even perfume.

     That is peanuts compared to the BILLIONS Trump has scammed from his followers and position. How much is his DJT stake worth, do you know? Truth Social is never invented without the TNC followers, he put ZERO dollars into that scheme, did you know that?

    How much has he/will he make off his crypto scams that he put ZERO into? Nice try comparing a penny on the ground when the big fat elephant is perched right over your head.

    One billion coins were originally created; 800 million remain owned by two Trump-owned companies, after 200 million were publicly released in an initial coin offering (ICO) on January 17, 2025...

    The Trump owned companies..that own the 800 million coins got the finance to purchases them from Trumps money since he owns the companies...hence Trump put money into crypto

    @SarasotaSlim

     How much of his PERSONAL money did he put into these meme coins? What was HIS investment in the creation and development of the coins? I dont make comments without knowing the background to what I am claiming, so tell me how much direct personal money did Trump invest to CREATE these meme coins?

    How much did Trump invest to found, develop and run Truth Social? 

    Trump is the worst scammer fraud huckster in US political history, he should be removed from office with these abhorrent conflicts of interest and the awful interior design choices that alone is worth putting him in jail.
