They said Midas turned all he touched to gold.
Trump?
Crumbles to dust, creates chaos, tastes like 💩, and somehow ends up on fire.
But hey, it’s Trump's magic.
The Republicans could grow a spine and tackle this petulant little man-baby. Or they can hide in the basement like they always do. They can stop this any time. Remember that in the mid-terms America!
But my hope and prayer is that not everyone does that. If everyone rode it out, it wouldn’t be this catastrophic. That being said Trump is to blame for this catastrophe and not you or anyone else trying to protect themselves.
I'm over 60 so I didn't have to pay a penalty and my tax rate is pretty low. I mean you have to pay taxes on it any time you withdraw anything so...why not then.
And it wasn't a lot of money either lol. I'm certainly not rich.
Smart move. I listened to people saying “ride it out “ during the Bush debacle. I lost every single penny of my retirement and now live on $1,400 a month and Part B is taken out of that. Follow your gut and look out for you!!
Trump: “To me, a deficit is a loss,” Trump told reporters on Air Force One yesterday. “We’re going to have surpluses or, at worst, we’re going to be breaking even.” So he wants to be in surplus with every country worldwide. Overnight. Are his advisors that stupid?
I can't believe the stupidity of him and his advisors that nobody can actually do basic math. I've got to believe that they all know and they're just going along with it. And I think everybody in any political office right now at that level needs to go. Full Stop
If he wanted to adjust trade deficits, he could have called a trade summit, come to an agreement with participating countries — invite the penguins too 🤭— and come up with a plan to **incrementally** adjust rates over time. Alas, here we are. 🤦♀️
Easy to explain. Everyone everywhere is screwed. And, worst of all, we are not yet even close to rock bottom. If you are retired or thinking about retiring, don't.
Let’s see, he said the surgery was successful and we have to take the medicine, did he say anything about foreclosures due to bone crushing medical debt?
Don’t worry about. Go watch the Dodgers or some other baseball game like Trump plans to today. Who cares you’re losing your 401ks. It’s a beautiful thing. 🙄
I know this is horrible, but I'm schadenfreude-ing a bit. My magat parents have never been hurt by a Trump policy, unless you count losing their daughter (they don't). But they're retired and completely reliant on their savings. I'm embarrassingly pleased to think of their plummeting portfolios.
@repdangoldman.bsky.social, the Congressperson for the Wall Street neighborhood, should host a “I TOLD YOU SO” rally on Wall Street, and invite @kamalahqofficial.bsky.social @hillaryclinton.bsky.social @governorwalz.mn.gov @aoc.bsky.social
Most Americans-particularly average MAGONES-have zero investments in the stock market so most of the MAGA base can't comprehend this terrible news. The reality is the only measures which will get some of them to protest is taking away their SS, medicaid, and food stamps if applicable.
He so wants to be like, Pres Obama. He’ll let it crash to 19,000.
It’s all about vengeance and his hate for being laughed at soooo long ago.
But I have to say I remember the event being televised and laughed so hard. I still do.
The Felon will always a loser.
We keep writing, calling, marching, & speaking, the truth so they can't say they didn't know.
I've written my "representative" almost weekly as bills come up for the SAVE Act, the ridiculous, hurtful budget proposal & today about the ECCA, which will decimate public school budgets.
I'm old enough to remember that the COVID slaughter five years ago started exactly the same way "We have it totally under control. It's going to be just fine."
So glad we needed a businessman in the White House. 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
I’m already retired so, unless I can find a way cheaper place to live or someone taking on a 1st time waitress who’s an old lady, well, I better start looking for a good shopping cart that will hold my most precious belongings.
So do we sit on these stocks and watch them tumble or sell at a loss and buy bonds? It’s like watching an alcoholic drink themselves to death. Putting $$ in a savings account is useless if the FDIC is going away. Fuckity fuck fuck
If you missed the billion warning signs and bought Trump's memecoin at $74 back in January. It's at $8 and falling today. Come join our movement to get his #HandsOff our savings, benefits, services, science, parks, etc. We need you!
I met my new neighbor over the weekend was getting to know her and her young son and learned that she is a Trump supporter who actually bought Trump coin talking favorably about it. Her 9 yo son was doing the same. Nothing she said matched what I remembered of the numbers.
A lot of my Blue Collars friends & family lost their IRA & 401K today, they are Homeless lost everything on their life today thank to the Liar Racist Rapist Felon Criminal Trump act like a Dictator of USA & his Liar Nazis Administration & Liar Hypocrite MAGA GOP on their BS Really Bad Tariffs!
Did they put up the fencing around the White House again? If so, I'd say that's a good sign that he knows We, The People, are serious about ditching him.
Broken bottles under children's feet
Bodies strewn across a dead-end street
I won't heed the battle call
It puts my back up,puts my back up against the wall
💥🇺🇸
battle's just begun
There's many lost,tell me who has won?
The trenches dug within our hearts
mothers,children,brothers, sisters torn apart
Only took 2 months to bring things right back to 3rd world status. Thank you 🍊 JESUS you truly are the savior of all, with your well thought out plan to BANCRUPT our country like everything else you touch. Do us a favor and move to Russia you work for them much harder than you ever worked for us.
“Now what's going to happen with the market? I can't tell you, but I can tell you, our country has gotten a lot stronger, and eventually it'll be a country like no other, it'll be the most dominant country economically in the world," Trump said.
Fiercely independent voter here that happily voted for Harris because she spoke truth and had a plan. Happily removed all my retirement savings from the stock market two months ago. I have no regrets but have sadness for what trumps doing to OUR country!
Problem number one, trump is a narcissist and there’s no way he’s going to admit he’s wrong. His yes men and women are telling him what a great job he’s doing. So we’re heading back to 1930, buckle up.
See I beg to differ. I think they know exactly what they are doing. Read project 2025. This is all planned out. Trump is the talking head and Peter Thiel and associates are behind the curtains pulling the levers.
He doesn’t give a damn because it’s intentional. He and his oligarch buddies already sold off everything before he tanked the market. Now they’ll buy it on the cheap after we’ve everything. Then, when we can’t afford our homes, they’ll buy that on the cheap too. That way, they control everything.
CONTEXT: The market downturn in 2022, which saw the S&P 500 eventually bottom out at roughly -25% off its peak in December 2021, took ~9 months to play out.
The S&P 500 is currently -20% off the historic high set on 10 Feb 2025.
The Trump regime is speed running a market collapse.

They need to be pushed past that.
Would a million + person march on the White House and US Capitol building/Congress accomplish that?
The Dow Jones Industrial Lower Than Average.

Repeat this message endlessly this isn’t just 47 being cray-cray, it’s GOP led Congress being cray-cray.
Make this stick like glue to Republicans. Republicans hate businesses and farmers.
So Lutnik profits at the expense of all of us? If true, no wonder he is so cavalier at US economy crashing.
We’re gonna go into a depression
Somehow I don’t think so. It’s a cult.
