“broad selloff in U.S. stocks and bonds”
“the continuing decline in the dollar”
"simultaneous collapse in the price of all U.S. assets”
"unchartered territory"

"there can be no winner."
It hurts Canada too because we are so closely tied to the USA.
But there is sort of a silver lining.
Canada is now becoming an even more attractive place for investments.
With a low $ and leadership that will grow our economy and move away from the USA we are a top choice.
- Dollar ruined ✔️
- US leaping into trade war vs China ✔️
- DC fully controlled by his assets ✔️

Also, don’t we sell bonds to … [looking this up]…CHINA to fund our deficits, which will rise with further Mump tax breaks for the very rich?

NYT made BANK on selling horror stories of trump to liberals. They just figured they would do it again. THAT is why.
I'm hoping that at some point the lack of subscriptions will finally tank the stock price.
Disruption of green technologies for the oil and gas cos.
Racism
Misogyny
Bigotry!
There’s more, but that is a start!😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫
Don’t forget that!!!
Right now the threat of being unable to trade in dollars is a powerful tool.
Is the US still a safe haven for investors?
Will China stop buying our bonds?
Will the governments debt cost increase due to this uncertainty and instability?

"Trump’s lender Deutsche Bank fell for lies about how big, and possibly how profitable, the rapist's properties actually were."
"Deutsche Bank loaned Trump $2bn despite multiple red flags"
lulz
He is doing Putin's bidding.
But I don't aim to go down without attackng his minions in Congress and hoping the do a second insurrection against that very outcome

If it’s being done purposefully, it’s being done to usurp more power. Given the stupidity of The Felon, it’s hard to know if it’s his stupidity or his delusional desire to be a dictator.
(Keeping pun ‘cause it’s cheap)
With ICE announcing a $45b "investment" in immigrant detention this year, up from $3.4b last year, I think they're seeing the potential for making more money.
we can look back and say were, but it's counterproductive at this scary time.

Republicans, do you know what the 25th amendment is about? WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?
You gotta use the Triad: money, health, security. Lose all three, and he and Vlad can stroll through the rubble, looking for anything left of value.
Putin just helps them get the word out. Trump is a useful idiot.
bore da !
Due to the erratic nature of its government policy, the US is no longer a "reserve currency".
Euros it is from here on in.

Who benefits from a collapsing dollar? China. Russia.
Who loses out? Nearly our entire population.
It’s like a misogyny/racism tax levied on everyone.

The 'Behind the Bastards' podcast has very thorough episodes dedicated to him, his ideas, and plans:
How Peter Thiel Became the Gravedigger of Democracy:
It describes a lot of what happened in the US since Trump took over, including the stock crash. Give it a quick read or find summaries or reviews online.
Do the opposite of what your intuition tells you.
So Donald went before the American people without a wig and said: "My name is George. I'm unemployed and live with my parents."
The American people: "Hello :)"

They are criminals, regardless if they are right about this
GOD FORBID they lay blame where it belongs. Can't even mention his name.

It should never have got to this position
The size and amounts of money that flow through the bond market dwarf the stock markets. If we don't have a functioning bond market, we don't have an economy.

They manipulated a vindictive, unqualified President to bring us to the economic edge -showcasing to our trading partners just how untrustworthy & unreliable we’ve become.
Then China opened their arms to those countries we insulted and said:
We’re here for you!
Project 2025 must be destroyed. Demolished. Wiped from the face of the earth.
"He who acts to save his country from tyranny, domestic terrorism, Project 2025, and radical right wing criminals, violates no laws.”
No particular reason for this fun fact.

Get holders of Treasuries to swap their debt for 100-year notes. Cuts debt service by 75%. Have to make current situation untenable for debt holders to make this switch including threatening to default if they don’t.
- refinance the debt (like a remortgage or restructuring)
- renegotiate the debt (like in factoring)
(His advisors have consistently argued against renegotiating. But alas, Trump believes he knows better. We’ll see.
