Someone else who owns a crystal ball?

Except, of course, that must would be selling those shares because of a disaster that he himself created. Said disaster started with his crazy purchase of Twitter. If the consequences of the self-inflicted wound only affected him that would be one thing. But given how badly it's already affecting Tesla and how much worse it can get, it doesn't bear much resemblance to a hypothetical venture by another multi-billionaire.

Given that his lunatic comment about the crowd greeting Harris was actually a fake created by AI posted as "truth" by Trump himself on Truth Social, I don't understand how hearing, as opposed to reading, is relevant to the issue. Or how allegedly getting a fact wrong about the price of bacon, is in the same league as Trump's delusional and paranoid thinking.

Do you understand that there's a difference between getting a fact wrong on the one hand and making an insane claim on the other? Such as claiming your opponents crowds or actually generated by AI.

Really? Those jailed were arrested for giving the wrong answers on a poll? That's what the rioters were doing? Just "voicing disapproval?"

Is that some sort of religious rule you've got? You take some kind of vow not to watch Fox? I offer you a link to a Fox video that shows a crowd there and you come up with a lame excuse. And then you resort to a lame accusation about people being obsessed with Trump during an election year. In other words, you've got no answer to defend Trump's lunacy.

I guess you don't trust the video from those lying liars at Fox News' Detroit Station: Tim Walz introduces Kamala Harris at Michigan rally https://www.fox2detroit.com/video/1497601

But what Trump did that was massively dumber was imposing tariffs on other nations whom he apparently considered dangerous enemies like Canada and the EU. And they, of course, responded with tariffs of their own. Not exactly the way to enlist developed economies to join in the fight against Chinese manufactured goods. That's all changed under Biden.

I see that you ignored this bit of Trump's lunacy: https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/112944255426268462

If Nick Fuentes, Laura Loomer, and Candace Owens don't count as far right, what beliefs would someone have to subscribe to to count as such? Doesn't seem there's a lot of room rightward of these three.

When personality crosses into lunacy, it's relevant. This is the clown who claimed images of crowds supporting Harris were AI generated! The claim that the press is prejudiced against Trump is belied by the fact that the MSM actually downplays the crazy things Trump says. And not just crazy but increasingly crazy. The Unadorned Truth About Donald Trump "We must treat him like any other candidate for high office who is emotionally and mentally unstable. It works like this: Trump sounds nuts, but he can’t be nuts, because he’s the presumptive nominee for president of a major party, and no major party would nominate someone who is nuts. Therefore, it is our responsibility to sand down his rhetoric, to identify any kernel of meaning, to make light of his bizarro statements, to rationalize. Which is why, after the electric-shark speech, much of the coverage revolved around the high temperatures in Las Vegas, and other extraneities." https://archive.ph/8hRTp#selection-1003.0-1003.483 The reference to the "electric-shark" speech is explained in the text that is linked to. It's nuts. Trump’s decline: His interviews and lies get worse (Axios commented on his AI delusion: “Trump’s advisers and allies worry he’s spending so much time in an alternative reality that it’s undermining his real-world campaign.” How about asking hard questions about how a party can stand behind someone in an alternative reality?) If President Biden held a news conference with 162 lies, resorted to laughable fabrications, sounded as bad as Trump did on X and scheduled so few appearances, a swarm of investigative pieces exploring his fitness and commentary asking whether he should leave the race would have ensued. Still, the pretense of normality persists. https://archive.ph/BTyFa

The Journalist you cited to back up your claim the Harris was the Borde Czar is Robbie Soave, a right wing libertarian commentator.

You've got nothing.

Great article, three years old and full of generalization but no real data. Anyway, maybe the ACA should look to the excellent job that employer sponsored health care plans are doing in keeping costs down. An October 2023 survey from the Commonwealth Fund indicated that 38% of US adults in the past year delayed or skipped healthcare or a prescription drug because they couldn’t afford it, including 54% of those with employer-sponsored coverage. "I think that even for working people, but particularly for low-wage workers, many of the cost-sharing provisions required by employer-sponsored health plans raise real affordability issues [for] what their ability is to actually use the plan," Matthew Rae, associate director of the healthcare marketplace project at KFF, told Yahoo Finance. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/employer-sponsored-healthcare-costs-keep-rising-and-its-sort-of-untenable-143036064.html

I know that mortgage rates have already begun to decline based I guess on weaker demand and the expectation that the Feds will lower the prime rate. But I suspect that people might wait a year or longer after that happens in the expectation that rates will decline further. Still, thanks for alerting me to the unsuspected dimension of rate cuts.

That's a genuinely interesting idea.

And as per usual no links to credible sources to back up your assertions. Until unless you manage to do that, you've got nothing.

Trump is wrong in claiming full credit for loweringinsulin prices https://www.news-medical.net/news/20240718/Trump-is-wrong-in-claiming-full-credit-for-lowering-insulin-prices.aspx You think his insulin plan is anything close to the big beautiful healthcare plan that he repeatedly promised and never delivered? And what about his lie that he never tried to eliminate Obamacare but that he only wanted to replace it with something better? This after railing for years at John McCain for voting down his plan to eliminate Obamacare?

Actually I found the official transcript of the interview here. https://www.rev.com/blog/transcripts/elon-musk-and-donald-trump-interview So I'll be posting Trump's falsehoods on an occasional basis. Here's falsehood #1 Donald Trump (20:27😞 "Because look, Kamala was the Border Czar. Now she’s denying it." Now here's the facts: "But Biden didn’t put Harris in charge of overseeing border security.In a meeting with Harris in March 2021, Biden said Harris would lead U.S. diplomatic efforts and work with officials in Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador and Honduras to stem migration to the U.S. Biden said that when he was vice president, he "got a similar assignment" and that the Obama administration secured $700 million to help countries in Central America." https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2024/jul/24/republican-national-committee-republican/border-czar-kamala-harris-assigned-to-tackle-immig/

You mean she plans to destroy Obamacare? She going to stop the push towards renewable energy? She is going to abandon the Ukrainians? She's going to push for lower taxes on corporations?

And I'm sure that musk would be just as hard-hitting and ferocious in his interview with Harris as he was with Trump.

More nonsense from you. Maybe you're quoting unsubsidiized prices. "The IRA and ARPA’s enhanced health insurance subsidies both increase the amount of financial help available to those already eligible for assistance under the ACA and also newly expand subsidies to middle-income people (with incomes over four times the poverty level, $103,280 for a family of three in 2024), many of whom were previously priced out of coverage. These subsidies, combined with increased funding for outreach and marketing, have led to record-high enrollment in the ACA Marketplaces." https://www.kff.org/affordable-care-act/issue-brief/inflation-reduction-act-health-insurance-subsidies-what-is-their-impact-and-what-would-happen-if-they-expire/#:~:text=The IRA and ARPA's enhanced,three in 2024)%2C many of

And over the next 3 years more 20 medications per year will be added to the list. Remember when Donald Trump promised to do this? Trump draws ire after retreat on drug prices pledge President Trump is backing off his 2016 campaign pledge to negotiate drug prices for Medicare with pharmaceutical companies, drawing fire from Democrats after months of talks on the issue with Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.). During his campaign, Trump famously broke with Republican orthodoxy with his support for having the government negotiate lower drug prices. “When it comes time to negotiate the cost of drugs, we are going to negotiate like crazy,” Trump said in New Hampshire in early 2016. https://thehill.com/policy/healthcare/471735-trump-draws-ire-after-retreat-on-drug-prices-pledge/

Oh no! Et tu, Breitbart? Retail Sales Blow Away Expectations Spending at retail stores rose at a much faster pace than expected in July, suggesting that the U.S. consumer is stronger than previously thought. Retail spending jumped one percent in July, the Census Bureau said Thursday. Economists had been expecting a much smaller 0.3 percent increase. https://www.breitbart.com/economy/2024/08/15/retail-sales-blow-away-expectations/

Great news!!! It looks like the people have money!!! July retail sales see biggest jump since early 2023 Americans stepped up their spending at retailers last month by the most in a year and a half, easing concerns that the economy might be weakening under the pressure of higher prices and elevated interest rates. The Commerce Department reported Thursday that retail sales jumped 1% from June to July, the biggest such increase since January 2023, after having declined slightly the previous month. Auto dealers, electronics and appliance stores and grocery stores all reported strong sales gains. https://finance-commerce.com/2024/08/july-retail-sales-see-biggest-jump-since-early-2023/ Oddly enough, as of now, no report of this appears on the landing page of Fox News or Fox Business News.
