Oh there's a great chance that the covid like event is coming...

Covid is still killing about 2 to 3,000 people every 28 days so Covid is still here.

Rest assured.
Somebody made money shorting the market today.

It’s a cliché to state this, but, “Fornicate circularly; make relevant discoveries.”

Why doesn’t someone put together a video of Zelensky repeatedly saying thank you over these years. There must be scores of recordings that should be clipped together.

Already been done.

This time, we will have Ebola instead...up to a 90 percent death rate as Trump wants to be more efficient.

My prediction:
Monday:DJT confirms tariffs happening,billionaires sell stock,market crashes.
Tuesday:billionaires buy back stocks at discount
Wednesday:DJT says 'Haha just kidding, not doing tariffs'.
Billionaires make more billions.

The fun part is that not only is there still COVID, there's also a host of other highly contagious diseases against which Trump wants to leave us defenseless. It's like Jurassic Park when the villain turned off power to the live wires and gates that kept the dinosaurs corralled. 💉😷

S as me we know how that goes. We start throwing our neighbors at the dinosaurs.

Bird flu is still cooking and there are whispers of other things. Maybe he’s trying to figure if it was caused by COVID or just a coincidence.

That’s not all. Lutnick is considering removing federal spending including workers from GDP. “Transparency” 😂
• December GDP was 2.3%
• Feb 28 GDPnow tracking estimate was -1.5%
• March 3 the tracker fell to -2.8%

I don’t think he can erase all that little bit of “pain” the Muskrat warned us about.

Is anyone surprised? Glad I moved everything out after the election

sinistar7510.bsky.social•3 hours ago

It would be funny if the stock market crashed today and Trump had to pretend it didn't happen at the State of the Union address tonight.

bhcphd.bsky.social•3 hours ago

He wanted to show the world he could destroy the American economy without the help and f a pandemic. But then he made the rookie mistake of appointing Dr. Quackenstein to the HHS.

azzuro112.bsky.social•13 hours ago

I guess Trump is banking on measles instead.

Just fyi there is still plenty of covid.

jacquik63.bsky.social•12 hours ago

Doesn't need to. Now it's measles - an equally deadly disease,. May be followed by Ebola - which kills 80% of victims.

davemc5192.bsky.social•14 hours ago

Well he managed to wipe close on $1.0tn off the value of US companies today (not bad for 1/2days work), so I guess they might be getting a bit twitchy alright

meganyspoogle.bsky.social•14 hours ago

My husbands company has lost 20% of its share value in less than a week. Shits getting serious while Trumps & co are still finding new, imaginative ways to screw us.

davemc5192.bsky.social•14 hours ago

Sorry to hear that

meganyspoogle.bsky.social•14 hours ago

My gut says something catastrophic is coming… like if 1929 & 2008 had a very bad tempered baby.

danbongard.bsky.social•12 hours ago

To be fair, COVID is still circulating through the population, just in less-deadly form. I'm sure Trump and Kennedy can arrange something.

One way to reduce inflation is to cut demand by increasing unemployment, right?

ingerw.bsky.social•12 hours ago

How could anyone think Trump is good for the economy? Firing Chair of Federal Reserve and putting it in crypto? Deporting millions of essential workers?

drewsolo.bsky.social•4 hours ago

There is still COVID. Weird how ppl of all walks for life. Just short circuited their brain and stoped wearing masks and am like what COVID.

They’re blowing everything up just because that fat fuck was afraid of jail.

sporkyreeve.bsky.social•13 hours ago

They’re calling it the Trump crash. It’s gonna be fantastic. No one has crashed the economy bigger than Trump. Big strong men with tears in their eyes will come up to me and say Mr. Trump I could never be as brave as you to crash the economy so big league, so quick

brightandbeautiful.bsky.social•12 hours ago

If you thought the 2008 crash was bad you won't like what lies ahead of us. I do wonder where the money is now. All the money not distributed for ebola, starving people, CDC and NIH personnel and research. All the money for payroll? Where is it? In whose account?

brightandbeautiful.bsky.social•12 hours ago

DOGE, you got some 'splaining to do.🤔

jakewertz.bsky.social•13 hours ago

Why does MarketWatch say the options traders are “bracing” for this? Volatility is great news for options traders. The rest of us need to brace for it.

Leave it to Trump, he's driven most of his businesses into bankruptcy. Can't see how this will end well

deportelon.bsky.social•14 hours ago

To be fair, Trump is working on several COVIDs in his doomsday incubator right now.

meganyspoogle.bsky.social•14 hours ago

He reminds me of the episode of the Simpsons where Mr Burns is only still alive as all his competing diseases compete with each other preventing any single fatal condition to prevail.

This only benefits the enemy of America

annsharon.bsky.social•11 hours ago

And without us noticing how bad it is getting. I guess someone figured out laying off / firing ton of government employees wouldn’t bring in big beautiful economic reports.
As the GDPnow dives into negative territory - It’s lost almost 6% since December.
It’s time to change the way GDP is calculated

leshrac.bsky.social•13 hours ago

I seriously wonder whether the “plan” is to crash the economy as much as possible before his speech so he can say how much trouble we’re in and only he can save us.

cgrossman.bsky.social•12 hours ago

Crash? Yes. Another pandemic without a Fauci and NIH? On the way. Social Security checks fail to arrive. Coming in 30-90 days. Other Trump-engineered disasters coming soon.

Until rioting in the streets and a call for martial law and the suspension of elections.

Just idle doom-saying.

henrythedog.bsky.social•14 hours ago

yes well RFK Jr is being a little slow, the measles and bird flu aren't quite cooking as well as hoped so have to start without the plague, they can catch up later.
