Trump has officially run as a candidate for president four times, in 2000, 2016, 2020, and 2024; he also unofficially campaigned in 2012 and mulled a run in 2004.
There, fixed it.🙄
When fat cats lose the one thing that makes them stick out of a crowd, they’re not happy. You jack someones wallet in a street fight expect a gang war.
To absolve their culpability in Trump’s economic debacle, guys like Achman and Jamie Dimon will use generic excuse that “Hindsight is always 20/20”. That’s a true fact. Equally true, less quoted fact: “Foresight is 20/infinity when you have your eyes closed”.
Only sociopaths need more money than they can spend in SEVERAL lifetimes. Only sociopaths have no problem harming everyone below them to stuff even more money into their already overflowing pockets. Such miserable, empty fucks.
In Russia, the peasants traditionally reactedcto government mistakes with the refrain, "The Tsar must not know."
Putie benefits from that today. And Felontrump, who Always blames his underlings, tries to do the same.
There are tens of millions of people who tick enough boxes on measures of exploitative, entitled, antagonistic behaviour to believe they deserve to be at the top of the hierarchies of wealth and power. Inherited wealth and survivor bias means some of them are almost certainly going to get there…
He was too busy trying to influence Harvard and then trying to remove female Ivy League presidents. He's a wanker, who's as petty as IQ45, but a tad smarter and definitely wealthier. I would take great pleasure in proving Ackman WRONG and then I would remind him about it incessantly.
Do we gave trade deficits with uninhabited islands? Calculations didn’t work for these either? I tend to doubt calculations were done in the first place….
I'm really curious whether my wellness farm will be more like Battle Creek Sanitarium, Arkham Asylum, or Dachau? Maybe I'll be lucky enough to get the middle ground of all three, ya know? Yogurt enemas, dramatic gargoyles, and the sweet release of death all at once.
Literally like i loved that movie AND the stories behind it, John Kellogg was a fucking nutcase and not at all a good person but he's one of the most fascinating people in American history imo
I would never invest in a hedge fund run by someone as stupid as Bill Ackman.
Ackman reminds me of Ray Dalio (founder of the Bridgewater fund). They are masters of hype. Anyone can have some years with good returns. They hype their lucky years as proof of their genius.
this guy backed trump and gave him a lot of money. now it’s FAFO at everyone’s expense. His comments on trust indicate that trump is ruining the trust of the US in the world. That will cause permanent damage. He’s just too gutless to say it.
Bill, Thank you 4 pointing out what we all know, that trump is a confidence man. By association people might think U R 2, or R U just that greedy? Do I ever ask yourself enough money is enough 4 U? I’ll bet when U started that number was exponentially lower. You might have a problem.
Hey Billy, you are a lying sack of shit. You love this because you get to buy up stocks and assets, as you knew of the plan in advance. Most people don’t have $100’s of millions of not $billions sitting around. You ruthless, immoral, corrupt piece of human feces.
Ah, you picked up on that nugget so artfully placed? Even the long con has to be folded up after the mark has handed over the briefcase full of his or her life's savings.
I am so sick of these MFing sons a bitches putting us is a category of all americans.
I am NOT a part of their kkklan or regime or anything else that they can try and lump us into. 😡😡😡😡😡
OMG you are seriously not gonna believe this. I trust Rachel Maddow but if it were anyone else reporting this I’d be convinced this is fake news. Unbelievable but unfortunately, totally believable. How the f@ck could Congress let this continue to happen????
#stagflation
we avoided it through #COVID only to have the REPs vote this Mafia boss in who "will bring down the price of eggs" yet he's firing everyone and making trade near impossible.
#stagflation is #depressions methed up uncle that wont leave until you literally put him in the ground.
77M MAGA + 90M Americans who didn’t vote and did not learn from the Orange Clown’s first mandate! This is my biggest disappointment as a Canadian. I thought that more voters had enough judgment and the analytical skills required to protect their country against this idiot felon who belongs in jail
HE'S PLAYING THE WWE VILLAIN ROLE AGAIN!!! EVERYTHING IS OPTICS!!! AND THE GRIFT!!
EVERYTHING!
IT'S A GAME TO HIM AND THE COMPLICIT GANG OF PUPPETS!!! SMDH!!!!
These dumbasses dont know how our idiocy on trade agreements f**ked up tariffs retaliations you have to know how & when to implement them this isnt the way! We messed up when we made oursourcing dependency as our primary stock pile,we should be making it our backlog making our primary stockpile here
He had 33 reasons he voted for a felon and he has more than he needs so why is he complaining? “Fortunately, I do not need any financial benefits as I and my family have well more than we need.”
Bill Ackman, showing the world who he truly is with the sentence “Business is a confidence game.” As in, business is a con game, and he helped elect Don the Con. This is why taxes should be raised on the ultra wealthy and Citizens United overturned. Billionaires choose terrible leaders.
Meet Bill Ackman, corporate raider,visionary of convenience: cheered Trump’s tariffs when they padded his wallet, now shrieks “policy error” as they singe his portfolio. From market messiah to meltdown prophet—when self-interest talks, principles walk. Nuclear winter’s fine—just not in his Hamptons.
Another brain dead useless greedy POS MF sucking up to a narssicistic felon so he can steel more from those who are of the lower classes: period, end of story.
He's the worst, I've watched him for a long time. No confidence and no rule of law does not bode well for the markets ever recovering. His boy is going to get us into a full blown depression with stagflation, very hard to fix.
I'm having a hard time viewing the US as being victimised by every single country they've done business with.
Canada can't even buy F-35s from the US without Lockheed Martin keeping control of the software. The US has always bullied other countries....there were just quieter about it.
Bill Ackman doesn't speak for all of us who knew t-rump would destroy the economy and didn't vote for him. For him to not know the 🍊💩🤡 wouldn't do this is stupidity.
I will never forgive them for destroying our country. Because that’s what they have done. And they will be the first to be sacrificed. They live in these poor states, waiting for their check from blue states. What happens when that’s cut off? They hate us but they sure as shit can’t live w/out our$
Hold on. Did Ackman just describe business as being a "confidence game", that is, an elaborate swindle with the intention of defrauding the victim? Somehow that makes sense coming from him.
I agree. I told you so and I guess you were right statements have no value whatsoever to me……. Not even any satisfaction at this point, just pure anger at the stupidity of a privileged white Malé who isn’t too worried about his own 401k and is probably looking for good stock deals!
Lmfao. The pos barely won the presidency. He has MAYBE 20% of the population supporting his insanity. I’m willing to bet a decent amount of them are starting to regret it too.
I do. Because the only way for MAGA to wake up is it has to hurt in their pocket book. They didn't care their friends, neighbors and co workers died of Covid. MAGA will care if they lose $ and their job. And THEY DESERVE IT. But it will hurt lots of innocent people.
Who da fawk is THIS Schlubb? Somehow, the MAGA Cult-of-Hate has been convinced that Government is a "businees" that needs to make a profit. There is ZERO reference to profit in the very U.S. Constitution that every Congressman, Clown Cabinet and President pledge to defend.
In case that person doesn't know how to read and who obviously does not understand simple economics, it has been reported on world press that China cancelled LNG shipments from USA because of tariffs at the loss of $7b to the USA economy. They are doing business with another country.
Business is a Confidence Game? The overconfident always believe they can't make mistakes! Did this overconfident self absorbed elitist not read what he wrote or is it perhaps a Freudian slip?
You should take all the pleasure with him. He was and is fine with everything Trump does as long as it doesn’t impact him. There is no safety under fascism, especially for the people who voted for it.
Can anybody tell me how did the trade deficit effect the economy before trumps tariffs? Anybody. What jobs where being denied or unavailable? 4 % unemployment and help wanted signs all over. So if someone didn't have a job it's because they are lazy bums.
I have confidence that Trump eventually ruins and/or F's up everything, and one, he comes into contact with. Just ask Michael C., Rudy G., Mike P., etc.
Ackman has no right speaking for Americans if they would poll EVERYWHERE it will show what Americans think of all of this but they need to poll where they never do & the usual! Anyway, watch Trumps other hand! He really wants everyone looking at Tariffs while he does some other awful thing!
I trust Trump alright. Trust he will bankrupt this country like one of his own businesses. Question is will he be allowed to do it and walk away in it's aftermath?
He's a remarkably shallow and reactive individual for someone who's supposed to be listened to. Acts more like a 20 y/o, as opposed to sounding/acting like an actual leader or a serious person of influence.
But thank you for speaking out being complicit is how we got here !!! Congress Senators it’s not right and left now it’s saving the country !! We need more protests more pressure !!
Millionaires & Billionaires who purchased Trump because you thought he would be good for YOUR wallet, if his economic policies upset you, check your warranty & call 1-800-THIS-IS-YOUR- FUCKING-FAULT

Wow.

And they have the gall to talk about meritocracy.

These people are soft pathetic pretzels.
We will be working side by side with these idiots in the trump sweatshops. I mean manufacturing facilities.
WTF’ingF already?
I don't even clean my own house why the fuck would I clean anyone else's??
And no I don't want to live that bad. Not like this. Rather die.
Ackman reminds me of Ray Dalio (founder of the Bridgewater fund). They are masters of hype. Anyone can have some years with good returns. They hype their lucky years as proof of their genius.
He got it so right and doesn't know it.
1/3 voted Democrate.
1/3 don’t care enough to vote!
You threw him out, and GAVE YOU THE KEYS,
and then WHAT DID YOU DO, to let him back in?
WHAT DIID YOU DO WITH THE KEYS,
when you got everything your own way.

Trump’s economic moves — maybe for rates or trade. More likely, it’s just an elderly man with political ADHD.
I am NOT a part of their kkklan or regime or anything else that they can try and lump us into. 😡😡😡😡😡
Secondly, tariffs (especially, these wide-ranging, indescriminate tariffs) are a solution to a problem that does not exist.
Trump's policy is sheer madness. It will not end well.

Rising authoritarianism worldwide inspired me to write an allegorical trilogy on the perils of fascism, authoritarianism and failed democracy.

Can’t make this sh*t up…
Confide game
Con game
#RESISTANCEISBEAUTIFUL!!!🌹
And does Bill Ackman not know that the “Con” in “Con-artist” is short for confidence?
If America was being so abused in global trade-why were we the #1 economy in the world under BIDEN
according to the World Bank and Goldman Sacks
hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Canada can't even buy F-35s from the US without Lockheed Martin keeping control of the software. The US has always bullied other countries....there were just quieter about it.
All again. There is no reasoning with these people.
Lmfao. The pos barely won the presidency. He has MAYBE 20% of the population supporting his insanity. I’m willing to bet a decent amount of them are starting to regret it too.
and his language is so fake, so forced. another coward.
PS: They work for US...
Glad to see you're finally beginning to see the light. Happy now, you Trump loving , mother fucking, son of a bitch bastard?1

Tariffs, in tRump’s view is punishment. This is his retribution tour…
Hasn’t he done enough to damage 1st Amendment protections for US both in the streets & on college campuses?!
Obviously, he hasn’t…..
If so, I agree. Trump's idea of business IS a CON GAME.
First, they came for my stock portfolio
