    For starters, if we send financial aid to Mexico, cut it and put the same amount towards the wall. Then all Illegal's ICE has, as part of the criminal penalty is the work on the wall for minimum wage. Then tax all funds going to mexico from places like western union 50% to help pay for the wall.

    Not quite what Trump claimed. He said Mexico was going to pay for it. What you are fabricating is not that, along with confiscatory bits of nonsense.

    A major recession has been predicted for 2018 because of Trump's proposed policies. Sure enough the right wingers will blame Obama and the Dems for it.

    no the wall is going up as a symbol, and mexico will pay for it to keep a little of the unfair trade they get rich from at America's expense.

    The Trump surragates said 'the bill' following the building of the wall will be paid for by Mexico (tariffs, foreign aid, etc)

    Perhaps, but that is not what Trump said.

    Details, bah! Who needs details? Details are for smart people, people who make informed choices, people who realize the implications of braying stupidity.

    Meanwhile, back on topic, bear in mind that the only thing "the markets" are concerned with is making money (and not losing it).

    At this moment, the DJ is down 10.10 points. Ooooh! So, should we all set our hair on fire and start running around in circles? :roll:

    Hint: Wall Street was solidly behind Hilarity! A couple of days ago when it looked like she was definitely going to win, the stock market shot up over 350 points. Oh, but wait. She was supposed to be all about minorities and the "poor people"... right? :omg:

    Interesting.

    I do believe the well crafted, well thought out OP was in reference to world markets, and how the world is reacting to the prospect of a Trump presidency.

    The world will adjust. Momentary blips in world markets are barely worth noting.

    to try to stay on topic here, the world of rich elites who have an inner circle of global trade that makes them richer, is not going to do well.

    since their wealth in the stock market does not trickle down to the average person in the world, the real world is reacting happily to Trump.

    Hmm, that is funny the market is down 20 points right now. Hardly a crash. Futures crashed during the night, but that has been erased.

    This is just the beginning. Trump will without question take us into a recession/depression. He has insulted the entire world and no country will do business with us.
    Prepare for millions to be unemployed

    Exactly, we would have seen the opposite effect [with the markets flying high] in case of Clinton's victory ... to see them falling down back to the starting value after a week ...

    We will see the market going back to the values before of Trump's victory in one week, don't worry too much.

    Really?? Nation leaders have already called him to work with him.

    And for what it's worth, 94 million are already without a job, under your loving leader Obama.
