I thought this might deserve a thread, I don't have anything to add, actually. So, the money he got from his sheep, do they get any back? How do y'all stand it. Note that the market doubled in 18 minutes when he announced he was gone. That says something, surely. (thanks, Bernie).

Real bummer for you guys, huh ???
We'll all miss Hannity blathering on and on about Radical Socialist agenda.

Now it comes down to Sleepy Joe vs Crooked Donald.

For now, we'll just have to put up with Orange Man using up valuable COVID 19 air time to spout off about hoaxes, witch hunts, Sleepy Joe and WHO while simultaneously patting himself on the back and blaming others (Obama, China, WHO and little green men from Mars) for his failures.

The market doubled in 18 minutes? Is this like one of Trump's "facts" that is a lie for anyone with access to data?

Do you know how to valuate a company?

Candidates aren't allowed to use campaign funds for personal use. That's illegal. For example, using campaign funds as hush money to cover up cheating on your wife with a porn star.

No, it's illegal if you're not a Republican.

The only reason why the markets did not increase on speculation that Trump will be president is because nobody thought he was going to win.

But as soon as Trump won, Wall Street went nuts and markets and stocks surged.

So you don't like Joe's funny exaggeration. But what he said was basically TRUE. Right after the election and before Trump was even sworn in, the markets surged because people knew what Trump meant to the economy.

It's been shown on this Forum many times that the increase in the stock market under Trump are nothing special historically and indeed lagged behind Obama's second term percentage wise. This was true before the recent crash.

And then it fell in 2018 and increased in 2019 and has now fallen again.

The stock market is not the economy.

If these people knew a little bit about the market, they would thank the FED for the latest comeback. Buying fallen angels, CLO's and ETFs with US credit.

Trump is gambling everything on keeping the stock market up no matter the risk. Corporate welfare hidden in technicalities. Inflation here we come.
