    Not really. Congress is control of spending, not some faux Czar.

    I beg to differ, Trump warned that lockdowns would be more damaging to the economy then covid, and that was true.. So when it comes to focusing on the panoramic, that also falls short..

    Then of course the same old leftist inability to blame and credit the real origin, creators, global infection and loss of life clearly demonstrates a huge lack of realty.. It's odd how all those negative facts are credited to Trump but the "so called cure/vaccine" is always ignored and that's is the biggest tell :pc::roflol:

    Yeah that's after he authorized lockdowns and corporate handouts. The King of mixed messaging was living up to his "forked tongue" while blaming everyone else. That forked tongue lead to mass confusion and lotsa Americans dead. You can't shine that Trump COVID turd, he owns it. Biden brought America back in less than 4 years from the Trump chaos and incompetence.

    Again, Trump was against it thats on record, that’s the point you're ignoring. You're still ignoring the fact he, Trump was also instrumental is pushing a so called cure/vaccine thru in record time..

    You Still perform stunning mental gymnastics ignoring "the where and the who" was responsible for the global pandemic and all the death it caused..

    Pretty sad choice of memory, but the left certainly wear it well :pc::roflol:

    All it's really going to take for a significant market correction to occur is for the King of Debt's tariff plan to be enacted. As for fiscal austerity, don't count on it. The bottom line here is we can't trust anything trump (or Elon) has said to be true. Except for one thing. Don really does think foreign exporters sending us goods pay the tariffs. What a dope.

    “I’m the king of debt. I’m great with debt. Nobody knows debt better than me,” Trump told Norah O’Donnell in an interview that aired on “CBS This Morning.” “I’ve made a fortune by using debt, and if things don’t work out I renegotiate the debt. I mean, that’s a smart thing, not a stupid thing.”
    https://www.politico.com/story/2016/06/trump-king-of-debt-224642

    There is no negotiating with the bond market when things don't work out. When he crashes the economy with tariffs and the deficit soars (economists predict he will add $9T to the national debt) bond market participants will demand a higher return to compensate for the extra risk they are taking. Meaning bond yields go higher. Meaning interest rates on things like mortgages go higher. Meaning a return to inflation.

    No, your inability to figure things out is your fault as is you habit of making posts to whine about typos.

    There is not a single shred of truth anywhere in that sentence.

    I don't know why you respond this way, but it certainly has no value to me, or I think, this board.

    Since you obviously prefer to add to your list of faults rather than admit a couple with an intent to do better, I will add you to my ignore list since I don't need this kind of crap in my life.

    Goodbye.

    You're cornered flailing all over since you posted out of date links when Trump was beaten behind the woodshed like a wet drum by ole Joey. Trump is and was #UNFIT to govern as dog catcher much less POTUS, he spread for Vladdie (amazing really expecially for Vladdie) and weakened NATO while calling for negative rates because his advisors were seeing a coming recession caused by his tax cuts for the rich and spending like a drunken sailor just before COVID gave him a reason to give out handouts, corps first and spreading for MBS to cut oil production, the inflation noose. COVID saved him from his own recession and he ****ing mishandled it. No MAGA can spit shine that there Trump Turd, they don't have the chops. Ole Joey saved American lies while Trump just desperately needed to have the country stop counting. He was( and never will be again) KING POTUS, **** the Constitution. Spit won't help, just an FYI.

    One of the reasons people invest in big homes instead of more profitable (if you know what you're doing) stocks.

    Yeah really, this post strawman reach is even more telling. Michelle said be better, Melania said be best......neither bar has been reached by your flailing strawman. Trump incompetence we are dtill cleaning up. Reality, facts and MAGA diverge. Try "replying" with facts, alternative facts won't cut it in the real world.

    I agree with Musk. The resistance to giving federal government a haircut will be serious. But we really need to do it. On the plus side, a member of a president's staff or the president can't cut indiscriminately without some assistance from Congress so the effort will be less severe than we need or than Musk wants.

    Who cares what Elon wants? Why should an unelected billionaire mega donor get a say in the government budget? He should get the same say as everyone else: One vote.

    Of course, we know what he wants; Protectionist tariffs so his car company doesn't have to compete with China, and lower taxes, so he can become even richer. None of this is good for the average American.

    Doesn't the Antichrist come to power by intrigue ? I don't think it means elected.
