President Trump Thread (Part 2)

9/10ths of the health of the economy is the perception conveyed by those who have the ability to artificially shape the narrative.

Consumers crash and rebuild it, and we only ever crash it if they tell us to. And we never disappoint. If they tell us it’s time to worry, we hoard that money and create exactly what they want.

A good money manager I like to listen to, an older guy who has seen a lot of boom and bust cycles, says he doesn't think we'll see a true mania/bubble the next couple of years because the media's constant fear mongering -- due to Trump being President -- will keep people from getting too exuberant.

I'd never thought of that, but it's a pretty good point and he's probably right.
 
 
Denial is a bitch, isn't it, Irv?
 
WTF are you talking about, Cotton?

I would say however that the "Truth Bomb" posted above is pretty much bullshit, it's been the tactic of MAGA since this shit started to get everyone hating each other. While I would not say that there is no one in this country that hates it and wants to see it go down in flames, I believe that the vast majority of people here, 95% and above, love this country but have vastly different ideas of how it should be run. Problem is when "truth bomb"s like that are posted, it becomes easy fodder for you to latch onto and vilify anyone who you've been told is the cause of all the problems in your life, and it requires very little thinking for yourself.

Except this truth bomb is 100% true. TDS is a real sickness that you and many others suffer with. It's okay, big guy, one day orange man bad will go away and you can go back to hanging your hat on being a "Reagan Republican". Oh, and Obama is the one that divided this country, not Trump.
 
So the half of the people who voted in this country, and those who could not bring themselves to vote for either idiot hate this country?

Goddam, Cotton you have TDS too.

Jesus Christ, man, at least keep the goalposts on the fucking playing field. I didn't say one damn thing about hating the country.
 
Oh FFS, Cotton. Saying that 1) You wanted the drug boats to make it here, 2) You would be happy if we lost soldiers and equipment means this country loses, and that people only want this country to lose because Trump is President, they care that little (hate) the country that much.

I would love for Trump to make smart decisions and be successful. Problem is, he has shown many times throughout his life that he just doesn't have that capability.

Uhh, there a metric fuck ton of people living in this country that hate it. And we keep importing more. Hell, there is a big contingent in Congress alone. They openly admit it now. There is no denying it. But, I said nothing about half the country hating America as you implied. That would be as hyperbolic as saying everyone who voted for Trump is a blind cult follower. Oh wait, that's what you do all the time, isn't it?
 
What does Trump call anyone who does not support him or who has seen him for what he really is, a grifting huckster carnival barker? His standard refrain is to say they're 1)Weak & ineffective, and 2)hate the country. That's more than half the people, and I'm not good at math.

Why would someone come here if they hate it here? And does protesting the way they see things mean they hate it? Or does it mean they want to see change?

And I would say that anyone who labels someone who refuses to vote for Trump as having TDS is in fact, a blind cult follower.
