    Oh how we have lowered the standards around here. A meager 8% return on the SP500 over 6 months. Even dementia Joe delivered over 25 percent return per year. What kind of a loser inherits a booming market and screws it up this badly. Looks like Trump was too busy pedoing when he shoulda been attending economics classes.

    Meanwhile, Trump's spending $10 Million of taxpayer money to promote His Scotland Golf Course this weekend. The five-day trip will also raise his second-term golf tab to $52 million in just six months.

    Using a presidential overseas trip — with its sprawling entourage of advisers, White House and support staffers, Secret Service agents and reporters — to help show off Trump-brand golf destinations demonstrates how the president has become increasingly comfortable intermingling his governing pursuits with promoting his family’s business interests.

    Grift, golf, and promoting his family business ventures is, and always has been his priority numero uno. That won't ever change. Lie, grift, con, deflect, manipulate, and deceive are his top 6 traits.

    Let the man play a round of golf. He just brought inflation down to below 3% for all Americans, he secured the border, and he's striking trade deals to improve access for American goods to be sold globally. The stock market is soaring -- all time record highs. He's earned the right to play golf.


    GOOD DAY

    That's stuff's extra galling when you think about the kids that drowned in Texas a few weeks ago while Kristi Noem was on instagram, instead of approving the dispatch rescue team and firing the call center triage group beacause it was "potentially wasteful" - while people died in the mud.

    You have to be really amoral to vote for, support or post for these people.

    I'd say they have morality and it's evil.

    Just a reminder of @SamFisher panicking like a bad retail investor on April 8th. Rookie investor who can't see the long term vision... and here we are less than 4 months later and the stock market is up ~30% from this point in time. 30%!

    On the other hand, the wise Conquistador invested BIGLY on this day and now has a handsome gain. Thinking like an Industrialist taught me that lower taxes, new trade deals, elimination of waste/fraud/abuse, tariff income, a secure border, and increased manufacturing investment in the USA all portend big things for future earnings.

    @SamFisher also fell for the Russian collusion lie. No cred!


    GOOD DAY

    You folks just don't see the long-term here. Fewer jobs, more inflation (and much less info collected about it), tariffs made on a vibe, reduced healthcare, more disasters, and less certainty coupled with repression and fascism are all part of the plan to bring back our economy and our freedom. Let the dealmaker make deals.

    My first reaction to this news was that Trump will be shutting BLS down shortly.

    Coked up lefty loser samfisher is still grasping for straws. Give it up little biitch, even your legacy fake news media have to admit Trump is winning bigly on the economy.

    Libs trying to use the cover of once respected institutions to act like… well, libs. President Trump ain’t playing that game anymore. Thank goodness. Just take a look at this wacko and tell me she’s a fair dealer — lol, I think not!
