USA Today opinion piece.

Opinion | Trump is actively tanking the economy. Why aren't Republicans stopping him? | Opinion — USA TODAY

GOP knows these tariffs hurt their constituents. The only thing forcing their continuation is Trump's stubbornness and a congressional lack of spine.

True, This comes back to the cult following. Only a leader whose followers are blind to the destruction caused by the leader would allow this. Normal people would be up in arms. But this is a cult of personality. So evidence be damned. Common sense be damned. There is nothing Trump could do that would shake his base. You and I both know that Trump could actually open up concentration camps and begin exterminating people and his supporters would be cool with that. it is ironic that the main binding strength of this movement is to antagonize the other side.

This has so many parallels to 1930's Germany. A leader who can do anything, say anything, must be worshipped, has managed to demonize an entire swath of society.

Could you imagine the screaming from the conservatives if a Dem was causing this much chaos?

I guess this is what to expect at the end of a country's reign, as its dominance and power fade. The US empire is at the end so it is tearing itself apart. At least it will be entertaining.

Trump and Elon are running a grift the same way Elon made his crypto money , Trump will lower the economy and keep it as unstable as he can so they can scoop up as much as they can dirt cheap , then he will back off , quiet down and the market will skyrocket as the volatility subsides.

Nothing more than a fancy scam.

I've heard that theory.. Makes sense. Trump and Elon tank the market, short stocks on the way down, back off and buy low.

I hope you two exchanged fetish pics and reached a mutual kumbaya climax.

The PM's were from fellow board members asking WTF is wrong with him.....LOL ESP the time when he was apparently under the influence and mistakenly thinking GF's post was mine and referencing it over and over even after attempting to clarify that he was mixing his shit up and I wasn't even in the thread at all hah ha BEST part was he of all people was giving training advice to someone.
NOT mentioning the little pumpkin by name here though as we were directed to take it to PM's

No thanks. I'd rather have honest money, I'm not like most folks.

That sounded high and mighty as fuck and I didn't mean it like that but I can't see an edit button any more so i'll explain a bit.

My grandmother on my moms side lived like a hermit , house was always cold , ate tuna sandwiches twice a day to "save money" clipped coupons like it was a religion.

When she passed away we realized that she had bought tons of stocks , bonds and all kinds of shit no one had a clue about , some of it was nothing special , others were well a huge surprise like realizing we owned over 20% of common stock of 2 major companies.

I blew a ton of it being a drug addict , trying to keep my company going while being a drug addict and drinking myself into oblivion.

Through some fancy lawyering and me being all fucked up and not understanding it all at the time , I became a trust fund baby.

I have access to it but I have to submit a paper for what its for and why I need it , never been turned down but I cant just go and waste thousands any more on lets say a lunch date with friends ,,cus I used to do that shit.

I live off my interest and dividends that comes every month and pays it all , the rest I play with here n there or use for training supplies.

Sometimes things split or some weird stock thing happens and I get a check that shows up but its not that often.

I know I didnt have to explain that but my first post made me sound like an asshole thats too good to make a dollar.
