This unpredictable nature of trade policy, waffling in messaging within hours is a prime reason I'm staying out of the markets. They have no discipline in messaging at best or they're incompetently following the impulses of a 34-time convicted felon who's filed for bankruptcy 6 times in the past.

Trump is an imbecile

Convicted Felon, Donald Trump, is a petty coward. thehill.com/homenews/adm...

Let this time in our history be the death rattle of these soft, paunchy, boring, charmless, loathsome losers who think they're clever. These are the worst men. The worst people.

I love this

Laugh or cry? Hard to choose.

Freeland: Our retaliation is going to be a lot more surgical than that. We are going to go after American stakeholders who matter to The White House. I have proposed a 100% tariff on all Teslas. I am calling on all the countries that are affected by this tariff to join us

KOLANOVIC: “.. I do think we’ll go back down in the 5,000s this year.” Political turmoil could bring $SPX down “much lower into 4,000 — I think there’s some probability of that.” @bloomberg.com www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

This is what it looks like when you’re scared of tough questions.

1/ OK, Democratic members of Congress in the US Senate. It’s time for some tough love. I am aware your pollsters and consultants tell you things like “the American people want us to work together” and “ focus on prescription drug prices in the economy.”

Washington is full of rule-following valedictorians who were inspired by the West Wing and did Model UN and moot court and studied their heroes and who believe in using government to help people. That's nice, but you need to learn how to swing on the illiterate bullies who steal lunch money.

The book includes various suggestions for causing physical violence and destruction, such as starting fires, flooding warehouses, breaking tools, etc. But it also includes many suggestions for how to just generally be annoying within a bureaucracy or office setting.
