The reason our country is so indebted isn't because of trade deficits, it is because of an unwillingness to tax the wealthy.

Politicians and rich people aren't better than everyone else because their politicians and rich.

In most societies, the rich and powerful acceded to the rule of law solely because they realized that, as soon as ordinary people feel they’re getting screwed without any chance of peaceful redress, that’s when you get the pitchfork-wielding mobs.

It is so weird that the country with the greatest GDP imports more than it exports. Oh, no, wait... That's not what that means. #trumpisdumb

Oil futures are down because economic crashes coincide with lower fuel consumption. Low gas prices ≠ Good economy

MAGA is ready to suffer for their king. They have already switched gears from "Trump will fix things day 1" to "It's going to be hard for a while, but this is necessary."

How many trillions in value can be wiped out before financial/investment institutions start failing? Asking for some friends.

It's the economy stupid.

Here's the news that conservatives are seeing. The truth is too much for them to know.

We had no choice!

So the idea is to get back all the jobs America didn't want? They know automation is going to take all those jobs, this is nothing but a con job.

To pass tax cuts at a time like this requires a level of hubris that I can't fathom.

Conservative media networks filtered coverage of events so they wouldn't upset Trump. Conservative media always filters their coverage to keep their viewers happy. It is time to end their ability to spread lies and misinformation once and for all.

Even if Trump reverses course on his disastrous policies, he doesn't deserve forgiveness or understanding. He doesn't give it and he doesn't deserve it. He has to go.

Are we really going to let them crash the economy while simultaneously cutting taxes on the rich?

Don't forget that not only are the markets tanking, Trump also fired high ranking officials tasked with keeping the US safe from foreign cyber attacks. This guy is fucking everything up as fast as he can.

Russia is sacrificing an entire generation of men just to cling to the little bit of territory they managed to take a hold of in Ukraine. Let's not let the same thing happen in the US by voting out Trump enablers and impeaching the son of a bitch.

What the MAGA idiots and Trump himself don't realize is that by being a dick, Trump is losing negotiating power, not gaining it. He's throwing away the real power the US already had because he's too stupid and narcissistic to understand how power works.

Don't forget that not only are your investments losing value, your dollars have less purchasing power. Add 1-2% to your other losses to get a more accurate picture. #trumptariffs

Impeach the fucker and let's move on.

Only an idiot would fuck over his own country to stick it to those who are supposedly taking advantage. This requires a complete lack of common sense and understanding of the global economic system.

At this rate tax breaks for the wealthy aren't going to matter. The write downs they will take on these losses will last for years.

I wonder if financial advisors or congresspeople are getting more calls today. Here's your reminder to call both.

In case anyone is wondering why mainstream media doesn't just repeat Trump's bullshit. This is the result of just repeating his bullshit by Fox News and other conservative outlets. The conservative echo chamber is destroying the country.

Can we balance the budget first, then examine the feasibility of tax cuts for the wealthy? Let's do that.

Trump seems to think my retirement is a negotiating tool. It is not.

How many former Trump Whitehouse officials warned everyone about how bad a second term would be. Way too many.

Explain to me how China doesn't come out of this way ahead of the US.

Here's the Trump plan: 1. Create mass unemployment 2. Foment dissent 3. Escalate to the point of violence 4. Declare martial law 5. Cancel elections This is dictator 101, and the US is failing.

It is going to cost SO... DAMN... MUCH... to repair this damage. Don the con in full effect.

My Representative just tried to reply to my concern that Congress isn't doing its job with the verbal equivalent of the this is fine meme. Don't let your Republican congressperson tell you everything is fine.

I don't have any friends who still support Trump. I have way too many ex-friends who do though.

Apparently, there's a reason Trump wasn't on Shark Tank.

Who could have seen this coming? How about everyone?

I have boots Greg, can you lick mine.

Here's the thing with isolationism, everyone else will just figure out how to do it without you. Our global influence just got kneecapped.

The congressional abdication of power to the executive is inexcusable. Let's vote them out.

Today would be a great day to let your senators and representative know just how you feel. #congress #stopthemadness

Anyone else seeing red today?
