Those most invested in the market are most likely to complain about the last couple of weeks and vice versa. Interesting to see who on board is concerned. markets climb and fall, but these were unforced errors. on the bright side, you only lose money when you cash out. A D majority in congress could go a long way towards improving things.

what part do you disagree with? Be specific. Perhaps JD Hill can help you. “Through its siege over Gaza, obstruction of humanitarian aid, alongside targeted attacks and killing of civilians and aid workers, despite repeated UN appeals, binding orders from the International Court of Justice and resolutions of the Security Council, Israel is intentionally causing death, starvation and serious injury, using starvation as a method of war and inflicting collective punishment on the Palestinian population,” the Committee said.

perhaps you meant to say hamas there's an argument for that. but that isn't material to the question of Israel... https://www.ohchr.org/en/press-releases/2024/11/un-special-committee-finds-israels-warfare-methods-gaza-consistent-genocide

Trump ❤️ Tariffs

Not if this guy has anything to do with it. I'll take his Economic chops over trump's any day. I'll bet he's never bankrupted a casino. I'm cheering for Canada here. Maybe he'll spank the old pig so hard that it precipitates some angina... https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/new-canadian-prime-minister-s-five-word-warning-to-trump-amid-trade-war/ar-AA1AA6oe -
Couple of problems here: many maga voters don’t meet your threshold. Remember when trump said “ I love the uneducated “? Why do you suppose he loves them? Second, he’s done nothing to help inflation. Put forth no deflationary ideas and has instituted inflationary tariffs. How you fools can defend this is beyond the pale. He idolizes and parrots McKinley’s economic ideas. The gilded age was fantastic for the mega rich. It sucked for the working class. Just keep eating his shyte…

Israel is a country with a recent history of war crimes and genocide. Judaism is a religion comprised of a group of people that share religious beliefs, not necessarily political ones. I was at an event this weekend with 2 Jews who don’t support many of Israels recent actions, for example.

I guess it depends on where you started. I was pretty happy with the Biden economy. The market did well. The supposedly "woke"issues had zero effect on my life. People living paycheck to paycheck feel inflation and the price of eggs now and presumably will for the foreseeable future. So, perhaps we're not even...

yes, they confuse anti Israel with anti Semitic. It almost seems purposeful but I don't believe most maga's are that smart.

it's almost like they enjoy playing the antagonist. I'm blaming mommy issues like JD Vance has....

hmmmm, I don't remember him saying any of this on the campaign trail. Do you have any examples similar to the ones I posted about unicorns and free ice cream for the working class? Seems like the markets weren't forewarned either. Geez, you're an economic savant! Just yesterday his tool of a commerce secretary said there wasn't going to be a recession on "Meet the Press". I guess word of the planned recession hasn't reached him....

you need to do a primer on genetics.

Vance was a rock. does he look like a jock to you? think he crewed at Yale? Dude, it wasn't meant to be shocking.. It's self evident truth that is being denied by maga. It's the natural order that they (you) are bucking. One would think a future doctor would have studied "Lord of the Flies" and "Brave New World" in high school if not grammar school.. Seems you didn't.

back in the late 70's at Lew Port there was a rivalry.: Jocks versus rocks. The jocks were athletic, popular and attractive, forged from years of natural selection and good genetics. Think Trudeau vs Vance. The rocks were none of those things and they were angry, resentful and jealous. Fist fights broke out and you can guess who won. Mind you, this was fortunately before the days of widespread firearm use to settle scores. You're challenging the natural order of things. This almost never succeeds...

it's a sad time in our history. this too shall pass...evolution has prioritized winning characteristics. maga's are swimming upstream against nature. it won't last.
-
He hasn't lost anything. He'll make much more in the private sector.. He's not a target. Publicly, he's apolitical as is appropriate. His wife does very well and will continue to. They're winners and will continue to be: Strong, smart, energetic, well liked, attractive,,,you know, the opposite of most maga's. We may lose a valuable and likely irreplaceable public servant and you're "not surprised". Not bothered. You losers don't even realize when you're losing.

so somebody said at the party. "geez, the Canadian leaders are attractive " I Agreed and put forth the female leaders. Then we all drank wine and forgot about the losers running our governmernent currently. Good thing we don't need to live like them.
