Problem is it may take years to see the outcome of some of these decisions. 

 

Also, if his plan succeeds, then one thing people can say about him that he is fearless. Ie he's not afraid of allowing the markets to crash and have a temporary recession ... and deal with all the backlash that goes against it ... including from his own population and other countries ... 

 

So he appears to be fearless. Maybe the only leader fearless enough to take these risks with what he's trying do to.

We're not Danish Cartoonists, so the MAGA-jihadis here can relax. I know they live vicariously through him and take it personally when anyone suggests the clown is anything other than the Second Coming, but you have to accept that you're a cult, and if there is a "syndrome" it's cult members who suffer from it.

I like and agree with your posts and thought I would add something to this last one of yours........ 

 

For all of Trump's faults and they are manyfold, he has cottoned onto the fact that his "poorly educated" supporters will take on board whatever he says, because not only are they poorly educated, they are gullible and in many cases, plain dumb.

 

A case in point is years ago when he started referring to Biden as the "Biden Crime Family" and he used this phrase as often as he could and gradually won over the goobers and they repeated this, as can be seen often on AN. Despite the fact that accusations were made against Biden and his family, especially his son, no amount of investigations turned up anything specific or evidence of a crime.

 

Sure his son was a drug addict (now reformed apparently) but that should have had no bearing on the family.

 

So, what I'm saying is that the trump cult goobers have been won over by the words of the supreme grifter and nothing will shift them from this stance even when they are proven wrong as is often the case.

 

Such a shame that the great USA elected such a clown, it just goes to show that a huge percentage of the US population are just what trump likes – – poorly educated.

JFK Jr. in charge of Health, Tulsi Gabbard over "Intelligence," Hegseth at Defense — everything is broken or breaking. This is truly American carnage.

The electorate and the GOP played stupid games — and have now won stupid prizes.

The only question now is: how do they get rid of him?

Treasuries are in turmoil, and lurking in the financial ecosystem are toxic synthetic products that could detonate the system and accelerate the velocity of the collapse.

 

I now fact check myself.

 

Your statement regarding the current financial situation is largely accurate, reflecting recent developments in global markets.
 

Treasuries in Turmoil:

U.S. Treasury bonds have experienced significant volatility following the implementation of President Trump's 104% tariffs on China. This has led to a sharp selloff, with the 10-year Treasury yield surging to 4.46% and the 30-year yield exceeding 5%, marking the steepest increase since 1981. These movements indicate a declining appetite for longer-term government debt, traditionally considered a safe-haven asset.
 

Toxic Synthetic Products in the Financial Ecosystem:

The financial ecosystem is also grappling with complex financial instruments that pose systemic risks. Notably, the "basis trade," a strategy involving leveraged positions in Treasury cash and futures markets, has come under pressure. Hedge funds are being forced to unwind these trades due to tighter lending conditions and margin calls, exacerbating market instability.
 

While these developments are concerning, it's important to note that the full extent of their impact on the financial system is still unfolding. Market conditions are dynamic, and ongoing monitoring is essential to assess potential risks and responses.

Where is that figure proven.

Please provide a link.

As he has not posted his tax returns since B4 his first term, as he previously promised, it is very doubtful if you have any facts to back up that claim.

WATCH ALL THIS IT IS A STUNNING INDICTMENT OF USING TARIFFS FROM THE U.S. REPUBLICAN PRESIDENT RONALD REAGAN FROM 1987. THIS IS JUST AS RELEVANT TODAY AS IT WAS 38 YEARS AGO.

Interesting but.

An extract from the link;

"Trump Media and Technology Group

Net Value: $2.6B

From a financial standpoint, Trump’s social-media venture is one of the most absurd businesses in America, generating sales of just $3.6 million in 2024 and recording a net loss of $401 million. Revenues dropped 12 percent in a year, even while Trump dominated most news cycles. Yet Trump-loving traders still bid up shares to head-scratching prices. Shares have lost more than half of their value, but that still leaves the president with a multibillion-dollar position."

 

  Which shows just how gullible the MAGAmaniacs are!

His DJT stock as of today has dropped by 26% or $ 670M past month, so likely closer to $4B.

Self-harm territory now -- maybe needs to consult a mental health professional.

NB It was Forbes who noted that team Trump had lied about not knowing the size of Trump's apartment that started the wheels on the NY State civil trial where Trump was fined by the judge $400 million.

THE FULL QUOTE

 

"A question that probably some of you are thinking of if you’re totally into that world, which I find to be very interesting. So, supposedly we hit the body with a tremendous, whether it’s ultraviolet or just very powerful light, and I think you said that hasn’t been checked, but you’re going to test it. And then I said supposing you brought the light inside the body, which you can do either through the skin or in some other way. (To Bryan) And I think you said you’re going to test that, too. Sounds interesting, right? And then I see the disinfectant, where it knocks it out in one minute. And is there a way we can do something like that, by injection inside or almost a cleaning, because you see it gets in the lungs and it does a tremendous number on the lungs, so it’d be interesting to check that, so that you’re going to have to use medical doctors with, but it sounds interesting to me. So, we’ll see, but the whole concept of the light, the way it kills it in one minute. That’s pretty powerful."

 

once again I pose the Q, if Trump is so bad why do deranged lefties have to make up stuff to attack him? At no time did Trump tell anyone to inject anything, but as you well know, Biden did, as did Fauci, as did Trudeau, as did every leftie leader/censor/mouthpiece who told people to inject experimental and dangerous muck. Get back to reality please, your false assertions are serving no purpose other than to illustrate your total uninformedness.

You must have missed this. ^

Hoping things will go the way Trump wants is a utopic idea. China now blocks rare earth export to the USA. So after you have build all your factories, taught  all your workers how to screw a screw into an I pad. Where do you get your supplies from? 

Rare earth will be eaten up by Europe, Japan, Russia, Australia and South Africa. No problem for China's export.

 

You realize that your beloved I Phone will go up in price by more than ?? 60 % ??

Missed what? You slice and dice words from completely different sentences to turn his words into something completely different than he actually said. You would have to be dumber than a rock to think inserting words across unrelated sentences is a gotcha moment.

When I refer to the hivemind having irrational hatred for Trump, your above behavior is a prime example of it.  Pathetic really.

None of that is correct, alas. 

 

Yes, Trump had help from his father, but he was given perhaps 14 million USD or so, or whatever amount it was. His net worth now is 5.1 billion USD. Even if Trump were a fund manager he would be celebrated for his peformance.

 

Nor is Trump destroying the US. He is curing a number of diseases afflicting the US. Every operation comes with a recovery time. He is making the US better.

It's all true. 100%.

 

Facts are anathema to MAGAs.

 

MAGAs say critics have to make up stuff about their messiah.

 

Make up?

 

Like he stole hundreds of highly classified documents and lied about returning them? FACT

 

That he called his goobers to DC for 6 Jan 2021, Tweeting "It'll be WILD!" in order to try to stop the certification. Oh, maybe you have another excuse?

 

That he called the GA SecState and pressured him to alter the voting records?

 

That he didn't know his goobers would engage in wanton violence at the Capitol, after his rant where he said "fight" 34 times and "peaceful" just once? Or maybe you're admitting he is so stupid he couldn't have guessed a mob of clowns frothing at the mouth might be violent?

 

I don't know if he assaulted E Jean Carroll, but a jury of his peers said he did. I did see the evidence of the bank and insurance fraud related to the Stormy payoff and his various tax filings and loan or insurance applications, and I cannot imagine there is any answer other than fraud.

 

I know he was found guilty of charity fraud, where, among other things, he used donations to commission a painting of himself. He and his spawn are barred from charity activities.

 

No need to make stuff up. He is a serial felon, and that has already been proven by one of the few trials he could not stop. Had the classified doc case gone to trial, he could have been jailed for the rest of his miserable life.

Read the quote you posted. What possible other explanation is there? Even a MAGA should sometimes be able to see reality.

 

Note the look on the female pathology expert's face.

 

You may also have forgotten that when media called him out on that, the White House issued a statement saying he was just joking. A pandemic is ravaging the world, but a President thinks it's a joke?

 

It's the same nonsense with his siding with Putin in Helsinki. After being called out on his statement about "I don't know why he would", the WH "corrected" his statement by saying he meant "wouldn't".

 

MAGAs believe every lie the guy spews, even when they conflict, like "He declassified all those documents with his mind", later fol.lowed by "The FBI planted them".

 

Oh, though this is minor and just shows his woeful insecurity, his Sharpie to include Alabama in the path of hurricane Maria, when the National Weather did not include Alabama.

I am sure that some of the MAGADI's here might have the chance of recognising some family members in the vdo.

He was even wrong about the sharks / electrocution dilemna. AI says take your chance with the sharks rather than going down with the boat.

Trump is doing exactly what he is meant to do - serve the best interests of USA's adversaries.
