Mi Misinformation. Trump declared once nominated, he would end the war BEFORE, taking office, it's so easy. So much winning. And America is better off thanks to Trump.

The amount of reduced gov spending will be negligible in the big scheme of things. Over 2/3 of the budget goes to SS, Medicare, Medicaid and defense spending. Certainly, overhead and pay can be cut in those areas, but the bulk still goes out. Also, the inflation caused by tariffs, and...

Nice to see a good inflation reading for February. If the other inflation measures come in the same later this month, that is great. However, (and a very BIG however) these measures are 2 to 6 weeks old data. They are for February. That was all before the tariff nonsense hit as well as the...

I saw news about Trump's silly Twit storm above. He actually called a consumer boycott of Tesla vehicles illegal. Nothing illegal about it. Yet all of Trump's illegal activities were "witch hunts." Bizarro World with MAGA!

Crikey, NASDAQ is down over 700 points or 4%, today.

Recession or not, most agree that on present course = slower growth, rising inflation, rising unemployment. That is trouble for the markets, economy, cost of goods, and employment. Under Biden, we were doing very well on all fronts, except inflation spiking to 9%, but that was way down and on...

S&P down 2% and NASDAQ down 3% on tariff fears, inflation concerns, and even heightened recession concerns (though most economist do not forecast one for the year, YET.) But a major slowdown is plenty enough to send markets tumbling with still, very high valuations.

In Trump 1.0, he pointed to new highs in U.S. markets to "prove" that he had built the greatest economy the world had ever known. Trumpers used to share those posts to show how great their leader was doing. Of course, the markets hit many all time highs under Obama as well (which it tends to do...

Estimates for a chance of a 2025 recession right before Trump took office was 17%. Now it has nearly doubled to 31%. A way overvalued stock market is due for a decent correct. But there was no indication that the economy would be anywhere near recession levels. Now, quite possible.

Maria Bartiromo used to be relatively sane and civil back when she was a host on CNBC for several years. I honestly did not know her political leanings and it never really showed. Once she went to Fox, became a cultist, and began worshipping the fraud criminal fake messiah, she became totally...

Unemployment up to 4.1 vs 4.0%. Non farm payrolls increase 151K vs 170K est. Jan non farm payrolls adjusted down by about 20K. So poorer results showing but not bulk of it yet. DOGE cuts not in yet. Companies slowing hiring not in yet on tariff chaos. Will see more of these in Mar and Apr.

All? No. Most? Yes. This is like pointing out that some blacks. Hispanics, and LGBTQ vote for Trump. The demographics that Trump carries and carries overwhelmingly are uneducated rural whites and white elderlies. Facts.

Well, my retired and elderly MAGA parents spend countless hours being indoctrinated by Fox lies daily. But decades ago, when my grandmother was the same age, she got hypnotized by the televangelists and was sending money she could not spare. My mother pleaded with us kids, that if she ever got...

It makes perfect sense to his base, that is his only audience, and they are very easy.
