It's as if we lent someone our credit card and they ruined our credit.

Reposted from Mark Chadbourn

Analysts are also getting very worried about the US bond market again. Treasury bond yields are rising.

Worse. We gave them power of attorney to make all decisions

chugs1222.bsky.social•48 days ago

More like someone stole our credit card - I wouldn't lend these clowns anything.

nyisblue.nyc•48 days ago

Never let Republicans have the national credit card.

No just someone--your ex-wife's ne'er-do-well brother.

Exactly

orchidlover.bsky.social•48 days ago

Identity theft. Maybe we could report him and get his name taken off everything.

left-coast-1000.bsky.social•48 days ago

It gets even worse. For now the Federal Reserve is independent. When Trump starts looking for someone to blame & installs one of his ignorant stooges as Fed Chair Trump will have become the “borrower” AND the lender. It will kick the financial destruction & grifting/theft into high gear. Criminal!

vanlighet.bsky.social•48 days ago

I actually think it would take far longer to crash one person’s credit!

jptrostle.bsky.social•48 days ago

And then blamed you.

I prefer to say they came into our house, smoked a cigarette, threw it on the couch, stole our credit cards before leaving

Then our credit was ruined

fatlil6ringo.bsky.social•49 days ago

And they punched our grandma

fatlil6ringo.bsky.social•49 days ago

Well, maybe they wouldn't throw a lit cigarette on the couch
JD Vance loves 'em

leerysnail.bsky.social•48 days ago

Our spoiled child stole our credit card, maxed out the cash advance against it, and then turns around and blames us for the debt!

criticallyspeaking.bsky.social•48 days ago

Yep

isosolies.bsky.social•48 days ago

I just wish American politicians were more humble, cooperative and diplomatic.

socaldude11.bsky.social•48 days ago

And to be fair not many democrats either

socaldude11.bsky.social•48 days ago

Republicans are basically all gone, none of them stand up to Trump

If the idiot driving the bus has just taken you through a hair raising rollercoaster ride where you thought you might be wiped out, don't be surprised if lots of people want to get off the bus

hoseyg62.bsky.social•48 days ago

And then they said “I could shoot someone on 5th avenue and not lose any votes!”… then keeps the card and says “I know I lied to you but you’re too stupid to listen..thanks for the card..I’ll just charge some Bibles and some hats and gold plated sneakers to you!”

rabbit500.bsky.social•48 days ago

Trump running up a lot of debt!

tinagalo.bsky.social•48 days ago

Ask the president... Or his aides

burnt-caramel.bsky.social•48 days ago

More specifically we (Trump) hurled blows (tariffs) and insults (insults) at the guys who normally fund the US credit card debt (China). Why is it a surprise when the country credit card doesn't get accepted as universally (bond yields start rising)? Time for Trump to go & kiss the ring or ass of Xi

ninjamonkky.bsky.social•48 days ago

They are purposely creating the conditions for a global depression, and it looks more like it will back-fire and just be a US depression, and leave China in strategic economic control of the global economy. Techbros are like STUPID, stupid.

thontaddeo.bsky.social•48 days ago

"Techbros are like STUPID, stupid." They are people who, for the most part, were at the right place and time and generally lucky. That doesn't make them infallible. Many once dominant businesses from yesteryear are gone.

moskov.goodventures.org•48 days ago

Which tech bros do you mean here? Elon is publicly unhappy about the tariffs. I think they come from Lutnick, Navarro, and Trump himself.

bexone.bsky.social•14 days ago

The ones who put Trump back in office, for starters

ninjamonkky.bsky.social•48 days ago

Let's call it the entire Silicon Valley Billionaire set who got behind Trump. They were all warned what Fascism is, and yet they lined up to get no taxes, and no market corrections for the cost of labor. It sort of speaks to their removal, from the reality of actions and consequences.

moskov.goodventures.org•48 days ago

Ah ok so you’re mad at them for enabling this situation not for planning/running it?

ninjamonkky.bsky.social•48 days ago

Correct. If there's any plans behind this, other than theft, and I'm not sure there are, then they're in Russian, and to the effect of, "break everything you can." However, Society Elite, the Billionaire Caste we've created, and specifically Tech edgelords are gassing the Truck.

thontaddeo.bsky.social•48 days ago

They probably assumed they could influence him to do their bidding on things they considered as priorities. I'm reminded of the German industrialists who backed Hitler.

ninjamonkky.bsky.social•48 days ago

Yes, that's the point. So were they, reminded of those same, industrialists. They said, fck it, we're built different.

criticallyspeaking.bsky.social•48 days ago

Exactly. Arrogance will get its comeuppance.

pizzasquirrel08.bsky.social•48 days ago

Sweet Jesus, I hope so

eltopo71.com•48 days ago

More accurately, it's as though you guys lent your credit card to a guy who repeatedly maxed out cards and declared bankruptcy, and then are surprised because he fucked you over as well.

dougbluewahoo2.bsky.social•48 days ago

Half of our congress did this. Not the American people. Corruption for profit.

Has the federal government tried budgeting and spending less on Netflix and avocado toast?

You can wash your pants as often as you like but you can never unshit yourself.

pizzasquirrel08.bsky.social•48 days ago

The markets can fluctuate as much as they want. DJT can flip flop like a fish out of water. We all just experienced the end of American exceptionalism in real time, and it's never coming back. The only question is how far down the ladder do we fall?

alladonis.bsky.social•48 days ago

It has been a house of cards for decades but now we have Trump farting hard at the flimsy thing.

bigtparker.bsky.social•48 days ago

People stop buying our debt, we are fucked-ola.

dchloe.bsky.social•48 days ago

You vote a selfish self-centered sociopath criminal idiot as president, these are the
results you get.

dougbluewahoo2.bsky.social•48 days ago

Election fraud is what got him into office. Not the majority of Americans!

dchloe.bsky.social•48 days ago

It does seem that way, doesnt it

crgulsvig.bsky.social•48 days ago

And took the cash we'd saved

joesoap.bsky.social•48 days ago

Well, concerned analysts can always sell.

dougbluewahoo2.bsky.social•48 days ago

You don’t understand how the bond market works.

joesoap.bsky.social•47 days ago

Really? I have financial degree qualifications and run a Fintech company

socaldude11.bsky.social•48 days ago

Not only our credit but the entire damn nation

balloonstrings.bsky.social•48 days ago

More like they stole our identities and ruined our credit.

gwenoc.bsky.social•48 days ago

The international repercussions will be severe and last a long time.
Trust destroyed is not restored easily or quickly, maybe never.

mdwth.bsky.social•48 days ago

Of course when you try to hurt your creditors they WILL strike back...
$7.9 TRILLION of US DEBT IS OWNED BY OTHER COUNTRIES...they could EASILY BANKRUPT AMERICA if they chose to...they could raise their rates...or call in their loans...they could destroy you... it's why he blinked
