Republican vs Democrat

Absolutely nobody would buy these calls that far out of the money expiring today without knowing something.

I don’t care how good you are - this rally would not have rocketed like this without news - no way.

There was absolutely insider information - absolutely.

How much money did you make?

Is the SEC even going to look into the trades made by administration insiders in the last 3 weeks?

NASDAQ call volume spiked minutes before the 90 day tariff pause was announced. Not a good look at all.

[Hareeba!]

The White House just removed the only public database showing how federal dollars are approved for spending - despite a law requiring it.

We’ve lost a key tool for transparency and oversight.

Absolutely 100% incorrect, or as you like to say "a complete lie". This is about restricting access, not about deciding to not speak to somebody. Don't be so obtuse.

"Separation of Powers".

The U.S. Constitution establishes three separate but equal branches of government: the legislative branch (makes the law), the executive branch (enforces the law), and the judicial branch (interprets the law).

The POTUS isn't a king.

"[T]he Court simply holds that under the First Amendment, if the Government opens its doors to some journalists—be it to the Oval Office, the East Room, or elsewhere—it cannot then shut those doors to other journalists because of their viewpoints. The Constitution requires no less," U.S. District Court Judge Trevor N. McFadden wrote in his opinion.

Icon defending morons who cannot put 2 words together.

Protesters interviewed were asked what they were protesting about...
Responses ranged from -- "Everything" to "what's going on in the world".

Not one specific item could be gleaned from idiot's A through Z.

No, you don't understand my point. China is not taking Trump's bluff. Trump can't do anything to them as they have no elections so he can force a regime change. Why would China back down on tariffs as it only hurts the US? Last time Trump put tariffs on China he had to bail out the farmers with subsidies as they couldn't sell their soybeans and pork to China.

Wavy-
You don't understand the Chinese economy---

Trump's s worldwide tariff's strike at the core of Chinese exporters' two main strategies to blunt
the impact of trade war: moving some production abroad and increasing sales to non-U.S. markets.

The sweeping tariffs could deal a lasting blow to global demand.
China is more exposed to the risk of shrinking world commerce than any other nation,
with economic growth last year relying heavily on running a trillion-dollar trade surplus.

Kaiyuan Securities expects the new tariffs could slash Chinese exports to the United States by 30%,
cut overall exports by more than 4.5%, and drag economic growth by 1.3 percentage points.

The stages in a Trump deal:

1. Lie about something being a problem

2. Do something to "fix" it, which causes an actual problem

3. Say you won't reverse what you've done

4. Reverse what you've done

5. Say "Art of the deal"

The judge wasn't following the law. He's a political activist. At least in this instance. SCOTUS did good.

The Shidiot

[DwightShrute]

Neither should matter, what the constitution says is all that SHOULD MATTER. But we all know the GOP don't care as long as they get their way. No matter what you or I think should be done. They should follow the law. Or change it thru congress.

Imagine some fukking unelected judge telling the president what he can or cannot do when it comes to these criminals/terrorists?

Impeach the scumbag I say.

John Oliver is a pussy!

[DwightShrute]

He should be in prison for insider trading and market manipulation. But I like that China is fighting back with more tariffs as they have nothing to lose. No 401ks in China as the party controls everything and no danger of midterms.

[pavyracer]

And 4 hours later he announces a pause in his reciprocal tariffs.

In ordinary times this would be recognised as a serious crime.

Rogue judges aren't happy today.



BREAKING: The U.S. House passes HR 1526, curbing the power of district court judges to issue nationwide injunctions against presidential policies—aimed at restraining judicial overreach.

Reiterating what we all know isn't crime.

anyone that knows anything about stock market has heard terms such as "Buy low sell high" or "now is great time because they are on sale". Everyone has been saying it for the last few days as well. Expect the radical Lefties who were cheering for it to keep dropping so they could continue to blame Trump.

But of course, you cult members who always accuse others of being in a cult, lost your collective minds when they market dipped, like its done for decades. Now, a few short days later, you all look foolish once again. Now comes the spin and the excuses.


If anything, y'all are consistent AF. Consistent and predictable.

Tariffs are paid by importers and are passed on to consumers, not by exporters.

The European Central Bank says Trump’s actions harm the US Dollar's supremacy and offers the opportunity to boost the Euro's international role.

Trump is driving America into the ground as his supporters cheer him on.

Isn't that a cult?

Trump said if America elected the wrong president, the market would crash.

You have to give him credit for a great call on that

Money is pouring in like no one has ever seen before

Just for the record, the tariffs haven’t started yet.

Don't believe anything. When a clown moves into the palace it becomes a circus. They say Trump is "negotiating" a deal but he needs to rake 5 trillion from the people's 401k to do it. They said today Trump broke another record. He is the fastest president to take a US economy into recession. He dropped the stock market by 25% in just 3 days. What a guy! The gift that keeps on giving!

Nice spin there. This is the worst rapid freefall since the Great Depression. Worse than COVID, which at least had a reason that wasn't 100% presidentially self-induced. And the market is simply predicting the odds of future fall in economic activity due to the current policies. It will be followed by recession or depression. Unless Trump decided to reverse course. Very easy. Still has some time before he self-induced recession or depression.

But this just goes to show that you will excuse anything with Trump. Anything. He can do no wrong in the eyes of his Cultists.

On April 9, 2025, the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) experienced its largest one-day point gain ever, surging by 2,962.86 points, or 7.9%, to close at 40,608.45.
