SP500 set back a year. I sure hope Americans enjoy winning. About 1/3 voted for this. 1/3 didn’t care and didn’t vote. Only 1/3 voted for something else.
It’s mostly the rest of the world that I feel sorry for.
fuq, I was in process of closing out my investments to finish my remodel.
(Runs and checks accts.)
My IRA is way down!!!! What will I have to leave out of the remodel because I was a day late which is making me a dollar short?
Today I'm so fuqing mad!
I didn't have my contract for the next few jobs completed. The one guy is a Dreamer, so there's possibility he gets send to a country he's never lived in.
That caused me to not withdraw the funds from my Fidelity and now it's not enough to cover it!
As a rule for my own self-care, I never listen to orange speak of I can help it. But, because I diligently track the news I see many videos of him (on mute) and every time he's signing documents he looks like a toddler showing off his coloring book. He's just so stupid and incompetent looking.
I'm the same, I avoid hearing his voice as much as possible, ever since the election. Any clips of him, I mute straight away. I now do this to Moses Mike & MTG as well
They are bankrupting so JD Vance & Trumps billionaire buds can buy the land up & beef up their portfolios. Any move for the millionaires and against the citizens. Vance has $65 million invested in Acre Trader which buys up farmland
This must be stopped. Greed. Shameless
He bankrupted a fucking casino. WTF did anyone expect? If the Republicans in Congress had a single testicle among them, they'd wipe that smug smile off his face. But, you know, GOP... Got Only Pussies.
Donald Trump is crashing the market, and raising costs for every single American.

Call your Senators and Representatives now!
Will he ever tire of holding up these folders with his huge, black, scrawling signature on them? Most of these orders will be disallowed by the judiciary or trashed by Trump himself.
At the end of his term, on garbage day there will be a dumpster full of these useless stage props. A Trumpster.
Because the "worst-case scenario" was likely reached by assuming people wanted to actually, ya know, keep economies running. Did they ever consider that someone might want to actually *crash* the economy? Because, Trump's been telling us he'll do it for literally a decade now.
Someone needs to arrest this criminal and take all his power away and impeach him. Hold him behind bars until it is complete. Then, when he is done with, begin the hunt for his accomplices and make each and every one of them pay dearly.
Why do you think he waited until the market closed to announce this idiot plan! I guess he thinks everyone will forget about it by tomorrow morning since he has the attention span of an newborn.
CEOs and other donors--get on the phone to Republicans in Congress and get them to declare the bogus "economic emergency" over. This is not an inherent power of the executive--Congress use your power to stop this shit!
Give me the names of who might waiver and I will start calling their offices.
Just looking at the afterhours markets, if those numbers hold at the opening, it is not going to be a good day. It will be interesting to see how the overnight markets in Asia and Europe react.
trump's base ignorance of how tariffs actually work is worse than not knowing the essentials of Economics 101. Instead,trump has shown us precisely how unintelligent he is...unless his "actual reason" for pushing tariffs onto our economy is to break the middle class completely...
His base thinks that if we impose tariffs on China, that China is then going to write a check to the United States. And that it will stop China from producing things and putting them on the shelves here.
Trump was a shit businessman. His father had to bail him out innumerable times. After his father died, he had to declare bankruptcy six times. He’s a poor person’s idea of a rich businessman. The one thing this convicted felon knows how to do is fail upward.
Trump was bailed out by his father his whole life, the draft dodging doctor was bought off by him, and so was his admission to college, so much so his prof called him the dumbest student he ever taught. The USA elected an actual moron with a thin, purchased sheen of legitimacy.
And Putin is tossing back vodka toasts while he waits to scoop up the crumbs left after we are destroyed by our own domestic terrorist government. Who isn’t being hit with a tariff?
Some people said that was a great depression. Not great. No. Might be great. But this is going to be the greatest depression. No one knows a great depression like me. Its gonna be yuge! Very bigly great depression ever folks! Radical libs wish they could do a great depression like me.
So Hoover was as gd stupid as Trump. Awesome. Can’t wait for the Trumpvilles to start popping up all over the country. It’ll be his true real estate legacy.
Yes but that group is much smaller than Trump wants people to think. Half the country did not vote for him, it was 31.78% of total voters that voted for him. 36% didn't vote at all. So at most a third supports him enough to vote. Of the cast votes it was half. No mandate
This needs to be amplified and frequently. It is all a plan, but people keep acting like the stuff happening is random...or must in some way be rational!
The other thing is that as they undermine the economy, and we all start to suffer, they may expect us todo whatever job at whatever rate they decide (and turn against one another?)
I got mostly out of the market once he was first elected. I’m 69 and didn’t want so much of my hard earned $$ in stocks anyway - especially since I never trusted T! He bankrupted his own businesses, stiffed his suppliers, botched Covid and called for the attack on Jan 6th.
Let’s say you are a billionaire with lots of cash. But you realize the market is over valued. How might you get in low? Maybe you would get together some billionaire friends to buy a president who would tank the market for you?
The wealthy Republiqunt GOP brought this on themselves. How many former millionaires will still be hanging on President Musks' nuts tomorrow ? FUCK EM, LET EM JUMP OFF LEDGES.
If you think “worse than the worst case scenario” is bad - DO SOMETHING this Saturday April 5 by joining a Hands Off rally near you. There are over 1000 locations in the US. Find one at https://www.mobilize.us/handsoff/map/
Yes! And if you have a Representative trying to draft off Booker's incredible speech, challenge them to march with the citizens! Send marching orders to your Representative. Or an invitation. Whichever is more motivating.
What a shame a storm that is being called a "once-in-a-thousand-year event" will be occurring this weekend in much of the country! It will be at its most dangerous in my area on Saturday. Hope those with better weather will turn out in mass! We need these protests to be happening regularly.
The weird orange face...those tiny white hands...and holding up the bill like a toddler who just made his first boom-boom in the potty. How TF did we get here?
Each tariff is a tax on every American. Locally produced products will likely rise with the imported products. Companies won't be penalized for price gouging. Consumers will just pay more for everything.
So what is his spin to MAGAs… that this will increase made in america companies? Where will they get the start up building supplies and stock? Something else is afoot… he wants sticks to tank so he can buy low and in bulk and wait for Americans to build it back up again.
What country do we resemble now? Any other? Can't wait to see the Market tomorrow morning. But - true trump believers will bounce back and buy up all that loser stock and get rich once again. While we won't.
Little Trump
makes America
a smaller country.
Slashes health care
cuts education
blocks farm aid.
Pardons crooks,
gives a finger
to our friends,
gets a boner
for our enemies.
Lets hacks
run the FBI & DOJ
& incompetents
fumble around
at the Pentagon.
The USA shrinks.
Check out the last 5 trading days of indices, and you start to see a pattern of dumping stocks in after-hours trading and bringing prices back up to normal levels in premarket the next day before market open. Looks really strange. Something isnt right.
This is your great business man, the one that was going to save economy and inflation? He didn’t show you republicans enough of a shit show the last time?
Here sits the orange con man who tricked millions, including the Supreme Court in giving him immunity, to believe he would bring prices down day 1, end the Ukraine war in 24 hours, and bring Americas into a Golden Age.

IMBECILE
How is this possible in USA?
Congress can fix this. Call your representatives.

My Name is Donald Trump and I am literally poison and have no clue as to what I’m doing.
However, I have wealth and you can all suffer and die for all I care.
Thank you.
And his hair
And his fat ass
And his empty soul
And his evil politics
Give me the names of who might waiver and I will start calling their offices.

That treasonous bastard

Narcissism.
In the 4th grade 👌 🖊
Well, trump always wanted to be remembered as having the biggest of something.
Thank you for keeping up on these fascist anti-American evil greedy and corrupt people.

Boycott. Buy used. Barter. Help others.
We join and we bring them to their knees
👀🍿🥤
Does anyone really think the “product” of Twitter was worth $44b or that Tesla is worth its valuation?
Reverse the tariffs, suddenly everything appears cheap. Ppl rush to buy. 🤷🏻
Not crossing it, mind you…
But, you know why🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
OUR ECONOMY WAS DOING WELL IN 2025..!
How long now before they look for him with pitchforks and torches?
He must go.
Canadians have known how stupid Americans could be for a long time. I think we underestimated how many were that stupid though
Trump is appalling.
He worked so hard for that right.
It can get worse

And for his final magic trick, he bankrupts America!
Buy out stockholders with borrowed money that is transferred to company's debt.
Equity firm takes nice cut then dumps company which has to service new debt.
Company can't pay up and declares bankruptcy.
Look at debt ratios and find companies with low level of debt.
Companies that have perhaps boring performance but doing OK.
This would be natural "creative destruction".
