Regardless of project 2025 instructing people not to use email etc. That creates an evidence trail that is open to FOIA requests.
Trump is no genius, nor are the people around him.
They are gonna screw up. Evidence of their crimes is going to come out.
People will go to prison.
Ya but as we see the criminality is escalating to a level that is putting our whole society at risk.
Which includes the rich who repubs work for
I predict he goes to far and a percent of repubs turn on him. Leading to impeachment.
Hopefully he doesn't blow up our society before that.
No shit. After looking at my tax bill, we sure as hell can’t afford much more than food, the roof over our heads, car payment, and our medical insurance.
Yes and No. The Idiot is a prop. He is NOT making these decisions...his Handlers are. The 'Liberation Day' gimmick backfired big time. When it did, DOH! Let's make some $$$ by pausing the tariffs. But wait! The market tanked again today bigly. So much for the manipulation.
He had no fucking clue as to what was happening. Someone talked him into it. Certainly was not planned as the lead trade negotiator saw the news on his phone while testifying about tariffs to a committee. But trump signaled the coming change with his buying opportunity tweet.
my post says trump does not know economics, bonds etc. He’s an imbecile
He had no idea the bond market could collapse the economy but advisors got him to to roll back tariffs. When he agreed, he tweeted an alert and you can see trades went crazy. Total inside trading scam by trump and friends.
Absolutely! I doubt she will make any kind of statement because she doesn’t want to remind anyone about what she did, or worse, sound like a hypocrite.
He has blanket criminal immunity for acts in a presidential capacity. His coconspirators do too by proxy because he controls the whole of the law enforcement and regulatory apparatus. No one dares open an investigation.
He does not have blanket immunity. The immunity ruling states that he cannot be prosecuted for “official acts”… Committing crimes that have nothing to do with governing, and are carried out for the sole purpose of self-gain are not official acts.
That's an opinion that would have to be tested in court since there's no legal precedent. We're wholly in uncharted territory. If the Dems take back both houses, then impeachment becomes an option again.
Bondi (Nazi Barbie) isn't going to look into anything the 🟠💩 does so immunity or not, nothing is going to happen to him. This is going to be a tree you need to chop down by starting at the roots and working your way up.
Republicans want to keep their jobs. How would they answer to their constituents if they vote to give big tax cuts to the rich while the middle class and poor can't keep their heads above water.
It was the selloff of US bonds by our allies, specifically Japan. If large scale dumping of US bonds were to catch on (it still might), that would significantly weaken the US dollar.
No matter how you spin it, the bottom line is that we would be better served with a monkey running our economy.
See this is where he controls the nazi narrative. Anyone with a brain knows this WAS Insider Trading but his sycophant buddies can rewrite history and gaslight the American people into believing his last minute decision was all just in our favor because he cares so much about us!
Trump is the definition of depression...
and lunacy,
and an abuser,
and insanity,
and narcissism,
and sexual predator,
and hubris,
and a danger to everyone!
Feared a depression? No, he feared the rise of the people. He saw the crowd sizes against him on the 5th. It’s about to happen again soon and bigger. He knows he doesn’t have enough people to back him up, that was an estimated 2.5 million, state to state. There’s still at minimum more than 200
That could potentially join us. Even 100 million. Let’s just say, because 100 million can’t afford or aren’t well enough to come and the rest are kids. Im just spitballing. If 100 million people, state to state joined for one of the largest protests in the history of the U.S. We might strike fear
Ten percent tariffs across the board - and higher rates against three of US largest trading partners - should still be enough to get Trump over the line.
No, it's push-pull. He is on again, off again, purposefully creating chaos, and plans to use state of emergency...maybe even when we get 10M people marching and resisting. He is only going to keep hurting us, sloely turning up the heat. We have to know the ememy. Not underestimate him.
Not true. Interesting that he hosted the golf tournament days before pausing tariffs. How many millionaires/ billionaires were clued into his plan to manipulate the market?? Insider trading!!
I call BS. They knew exactly what they were doing.It's spelled "i-n-s-i-d-e-r t-r-a-d-i-n-g." That, and fotus wanting to get credit for the market going back up after he burned it down.
It was definitely planned by his billionaire buddies. "Let's crash the global economy so markets freefall, and we can buy at low prices, then 'fix' everything so markets go back up. FREE MONEY!! WEEEEE!!!"
Foreign investment will dry up, Wall St looks like the rigged Moscow exchange. Severely damaged America's small businesses in a week and consumer spending even more.
Market manipulation as soon as he knew he had the pause. Friends got a heads up, insider trading.
The pause was caused by this. It's scarier by far than the stock market.
Don’t buy it. He is enjoying crashing the markets so him and his buddies can buy cheap & make a fortune when he pauses the tariffs. This isn’t a negotiation strategy, it’s market manipulation designed to benefit the ultra wealthy. It’s the same scam he pulled with ivermectin during COVID.
Credibility is already damaged...no going back. I don't think ever, but only my opinion.
America flopped in 2016, flipped in 2020, flopped again in 2024 and will flip again in 2028. So how can any rules based country trust flipping and flopping america again????
Immunity is and has always been conditional in that it is only what applies to the active duties of the presidency, so it is far from "full". Stock trading is not included in that scope of purview, and yes, insider trading is illegal.
But setting tariffs is either a core or an ancillary scope. So he just tells his cronies ahead of time of tarriff actions and then they pay him back in Inaguration Funds, trump$, or many other violations of hatch act.
Tariffs weren't even within presidential purview until Congress allowed certain discretion to the office of the President, and that has only specific allowances regarding national security. The purse of the government, which includes tariffs, has always been part of the Legislative Branch.
Was hoping us marshals but they’ve been corrupted by doj….this is exactly why we must edit our constitution with strict consequences & who will carry them out.The 1st day birthright citizenship thing was unconstitutional;should have jailed him @ that time, for example,with only legal counsel allwd
Remember that building a case takes time, and as the criminals quickly try to shift to other matters and fires they've set, there are workers behind the scenes helping with investigation for those out front providing what assurance they are able.
Didn’t the immunity ruling also say that we don’t get to “question his motives” and that they get to decide whether an illegal act is a part of his duties as president, though?
Lies. Insider trading by the US president, violating the emollients clause of the Constitution. He's violating people's first amendment rights, he gave aid to someone convicted of seditious conspiracy, violating the 14th. In short, a criminal president.
Trump already gave America a recession - when we had the best economy in the world when he started his term. The Fed had changed their outlook for Q1 from big growth under Biden to shrinkage under Trump - that's the start of a recession. Q2 was going to be worse than Q1.
The money that they made propably came from some poor farmer selling their farms and some poor elderly life savings to pay for their retirements and medical bllls and very likely house mortgages and rental , Did the ole corrupted dumbfck thot about that ?
Horseshit. He's creating a series of crashes with insider trading tips to his billionaire pals. He knows perfectly well this shit ends in a depression, he just assumes he'll be rich and powerful enough it won't matter any longer.
He did that too, I think it was opportunistic. There was definitely information being released ahead and the spike in "buys" was +/- 20 minutes before he announced.
I'm sure he got schooled by some GOP to rescind the tariffs and then gave a heads up to pals with the alert just ahead of announcing.
He was so used to someone editing him on a reality show. To make him look like he could make a business decision. He forgets that changing his mind 20 times in real life will not be edited. We just saw firsthand how he runs a business in the ground. But he still finds a way to make money.
You forgot to mention the part about how all of them both Democrat and Republican, probably bought into these low stocks that crashed. It’s called insider trading… Or possibly Rico charge.
So SOMEONE in the Administration has a MODICUM of common sense.. WOW.. Now of if any the MAGAverse could actually see that instead of portraying the action a genius game of "chicken" or 4d chess! FAUXNews LIES!! X LIES!
Im not buying it. This is all outlayed in Project 2025, Heritage, and IDU. Every step even the assinine chaotic ones are calculated by design. Trumps just a puppet for the real guys pulling the strings.
Disagree. He was creating a pump and dump scheme. And he will do it again. When he can't do it anymore he will not give a damn that we are left in a depression. Fuck him.
He didn't "cave." He did as planned. Manipulated the stock market so he, his family, minions, million/billionaires could make more money. The on again, off again, on again, off again tariffs are planned to manipulate the stock market.
That’s not even close to why. This has been nothing but a criminal organization manipulating the markets and now asking for bribes to exempt US companies from tariffs. Everyone sees it! We need to stop the criminals!!!
I think it is possible that that ship has sailed and being well on the road to possibly making the Great Depression seem like child's play.
Depressions seem always be linked to the United States as the culprit.
Too late, I think most of us are already suffering from depression and now I hear he wants to put tariff on pharmaceuticals, some of which we use to treat our depression & anxiety caused by him. 🤪
I think our corrupt SCOTUS made him immune~But he has no business with tariffs~Constitution says Congress does that~I don't believe he is immune to violating the Constitution
At what point are all of these economist, economic journals and blogs, and finance podcasts going to realize that making excuses for this man and his asinine decisions only makes them seem stupid and unreliable?
The real problem is when will regular everyday people realize that making excuses for him and the elected leaders from their states hurt them? trump is only one part of the problem. Many elected people vote on bills to hurt their constituents to fatten their pockets.
I wonder what the excuse is gonna be TODAY? Seeing on how the market is still crashing despite the pauses, I don’t see how it was just his fear of a “depression”. Let’s call this what it is, market, manipulation, and corruption at its highest level.
What "pause"???
-10% across the board worldwide
-145% on China
-25% on Canada and Mexico.
If you believe that's a pause, I have some swampland in Florida I'd like to sell you.
Hey, I’m right there with ya! There was no “pause”. Everything coming across that man’s desk, or better yet his truth social account, is the furthest thing from actual economic policy. If anything thing this “plan” should be all the evidence anyone needs to this man is literally deranged.
I think the tactic is called "anchoring" where a ridiculous number is floated causing fear and uproar. When the real number is announced at some reduction a "thankful" public "accepts" it with less resistance.
It was the fucknormous Bond Market sell off of our Treasury Bonds.
Our country is now considered too 'risky' and unstable for the world to park their money in any longer. This is the bedrock foundation of our modern economy. Trump has truly fucked us for the foreseeable future.
He recklessly planned the Stock Manipulation and Insider Trading Scheme but the con man never saw the Bond Market sell off could happened. He got screwed in the end!
Long term damage has been done. America will never be trusted again. Even if Dems get back in, there will always be the worry it will be Republicans next time.
Why we need to shift to a parliamentary govt next: more seats & parties @ the table, with an updated constitution we can avoid the mess we have gotten into in future
Right. Regardless of any future democratic administration, the persistence of this huge cult like movement that seems to be opposed to the entirety of the administrative state, to the democratic structure of checks and balances, to entitlements, means you could get a corrupt lunatic anytime.
Aas long as MAGA has significant influence in government, no nation will trust us. They are beginning to form new alliances as we speak. Over the next few months, they will abandon us until maga gets what they wanted - a country that is completely alone. No trade, no support. Nothing.
Exactly, cause Trump's a loose freakin' cannon. And NO ONE wants to park their money in a country that doesn't respect the rule of law, which increasingly, is where this country is headed.
PEOPLE WANT STABILITY in their investments, Trump doesn't offer that, in any shape or form.
I’m trying to figure out if he and his Trump cards really thought the world wouldn’t notice what they were doing with the markets or if he really didn’t know what he was doing. The next Great Depression will lead to the next golden age. We can’t have one without the other. He wants his Golden Age
He didn't cave. Each step was choreographed. The oligarchs started shorting the market before tariffs were announced, made the margin call when markets tanked, bought in again before the pause was announced.
I'm pretty sure the blip from the rumor a few days ago was a test of the market.
Let's see, I just pointed out that Chris Hayes talked about how a 10% tariff would equate to about $2500 per family in America. There's no disinformation in that statement. But I am disgusted that Canada and Mexico are still so high and the truth is 10% is way too high as is.
My reference to "not repeat disinformation" was your omission re: 25% on Canada and Mexico. That's all & I'm sure it wasn't intentional, ie. weren't aware. News is spun so many different ways these days, from pushing an agenda or agencies just being sloppy. Can't get whole picture from one source.
Oh please!!!!!!
F no.
He went back on tariffs for the markets to jump up and for his buddies to earn a lot of money from stock manipulation.
That is why.
The world views us now as a flip flopping country. Going from
Obama to 🍊💩 to Biden to 🍊💩. USA cannot be trusted to make good judgments becuz greed & money are too easily influenced by corrupt politicians (citizens united, etc) & an electorate illiterate of our constitution or its original sin.
He didn’t ‘cave’ !!! I wish everyone would stop saying he caved. It was all part of his master plan for insider trading. tRump and his billionaire buddies just got a helluva lot richer buying up all the crashed shares before he announced the pause. Those same shares then shot up in value 🤬
It should be forbidden for any political party to receive large amounts of money from billionaires, businesses etc. The system in the us is rigged and corrupted.
It’s not over yet. It’s the flashing red lights in the 10-year bond that is the scariest indicators of coming turmoil. If hedge funds are pressured to sell their massive bond collateral, at the same time the treasury needs to sell new bonds, then a China dump in anger may kill faith in our system.
The depression is guaranteed,lack of farmhands,lack of investors, lack of tourism, decline in house prices, inflation spike, no trust in this administration.
Even so we are still not out of the woods. As Chris Hayes said yesterday "Trump set the house on fire, then panicked and put out the fire but now we are living in a burnt house."

He did this to manipulate the stock market and cash in through insider trading.

If I were her I’d be saying something, but agree that she should probably just stay out of it.
He's STILL Using social media to tweet out orders and instructions to insiders
He's done it before. Musk does it with crypto. It's the #pumpanddump #WorldSeries
No matter how you spin it, the bottom line is that we would be better served with a monkey running our economy.

He’s fucked us.
Happy Depression Everybody!!
Economic depression still in play.
Everyone needs to come to the realization that what Trump is doing should be labeled,
“Art Of The Steal”!
#TrumpIsCorrupt
#ArtOfTheSteal

Make trump responsible for a Depression.
To
The
Shit
They sop up their billions, lowering the “refill” limit every time they take “the dip.”
America flopped in 2016, flipped in 2020, flopped again in 2024 and will flip again in 2028. So how can any rules based country trust flipping and flopping america again????
And he's probably right.

Nice economy you have there, it would be a shame if anything happened to it.
Like dumping bonds or calling in debt.

There is still a significant probability of that outcome.
Confidence is quickly trashed!
Building confidence is a slow process!
They really take their readers for imbeciles...
Depressions seem always be linked to the United States as the culprit.
Fuck you Trump.
Do you know why??
Because the US has made it impossible to import generica.
And do you know why?
Because you have been programmed to distrust everything that's not produced in the US.
You are all brainwashed. Some less some more, but yeah

We The People’s $$$$
The bond market doesn't get as much attention as the stock market, but could be a very dangerous sign for our economy (so even he had to cry uncle...)
And meanwhile, my prices aren't any lower...are yours?
What could possibly go wrong.
Hey Trumpy, you wanna try the nukes next ? 🤪
