Obviously the first one is from last week

Iran will need to be done successfully and gas prices back down.

The thing is, the Democrats still have no plan, no message, no leadership, and nobody admirable - all dreck.

Trump is retarded. This is a fact.

Therefore, ipso facto, anything he says can be assumed to be retarded.

What a dumb thing to say. 

[Necrosis]

Either you're a parrot or I'm a ventriloquist.   

You're just repeating to me what I've already told you before.  How is that a contradiction?

Yeah, so?  This is historically business as usual. In the stock market, irrationality isn't an anomaly.  It is a recurring, fundamental feature of the system.

If you think the current irrationality is a new phenomenon, you are ignoring history.

"The market can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent."  Famed economist John Maynard Keynes

I know you said it and I am referencing that quote obviously as tongue in cheek. You like Keynes? wouldn't have thought that.

Obviously this stuff moves on a gradient, there are degrees of irrationality. There have been bubbles based on extreme irrationality that absolutely does not keep the market solvent unless propped up and to various degrees- black swans occur and represent the non-linear nature of the market.

But if you are posting that Trump is winning because of said stock market and the man is saying that he expected a strong correction how can you attribute these increases to him? you cannot, he does not. It's not his doing as he is directly doing things that should (according to him and every reasonable person) have the opposite effect.

He effects the market short term with tweets and lies but policy? I mean tariffs caused a massive sell-off. The only time I have seen the market move was from bullshit like the tariffs are off (undoing the harm he did directly).

That is my point. To have an actual discussion I dont think we can sum up positions in 6 words, loco. What do you mean by short term? months?

[Necrosis]

What a dumb thing to say.

Lol, I am so in your heads it's not funny. you follow me around posting and reacting to every troll I make hahahahahaha.

I'll go easier on you moving forward. I think you need a new angle, the gibberish thing made you look like your comprehension was the problem, the liar thing is a copy of chaos. I would suggest actually trying to refute my serious posts but we both know you can't do that.

Trump is bragging about identifying a cat and a duck and made up a lie about the math question like someone in grade 6 would do lol. Embarrassing!

He is not very bright, just willing to do evil shit to get what he wants. Like rug pull americans for their money.

he may actually meet the criteria. I heard they use pictures instead of written documents because he doesn't read. That's sign one of possible full on beast mode retardation. I will post others as this convo progresses.

I would probably have one as well tbh.

But if you are posting that Trump is winning because of said stock market

Are you triggered by those posts?   

My posts are to mock the many unfulfilled predictions that Trump was for sure gonna sink the US economy and stock market soon after starting office.  Many even set July 4, 2025 as one of the dates this would happen.  "Liberation Day," April 2, 2025 was another one.  It never happened.  Instead, the US economy and stock market are booming.  If it were a Dem president, Dems would be cheering and taking credit.  Because it's happening on Trump's watch, then no, it has nothing to do with Trump; that's impossible.   

If fact, the Iran war has been bad news for international stocks and good news for US stocks:

So you guys have gone from

Not even half the country benefits from the stock market to

Most of those stock holders own very little to

They don't own a lot for retirement

And now it's about the average American debt by age.  What does that have to do with the stock market?

What good is it to have $100,000 in stock if you have $100,000 in debt as well? It all ties together. Most people are not doing well financially. The stock market doesn't give a clear view of this plus government props up the market as well.

Because if the investments are earning more than the interest on the debt, you win.

Exactly.  It's sad so many here don't understand simple, personal finance and investing.

The economy is not the stock market. I am canadian and I own US stocks. It's far more global than you are letting on, which is why you can't use it as a barometer of the health of the economy solely, which you are doing because there isn't anything else you could point to. Even then, the thing you are claiming is clearly not do to Trump, namely for the reasons I posted above.

He reversed liberation day as bonds were being sold off like hot cakes.

Under what metrics is the economy booming? you had multiple months of job loss, increased inflation amongst other things. You guys had to bail out farmers using tax payer money and have seen certain industries buckle in roughly a year.

You are living in la la land.

Now that you have reminded everyone - again - of your ongoing faggotry  for the day, let's remind you of some facts.

During Donald Trump's presidency, several officials and reports highlighted that his aides and briefing teams utilized visual aids—specifically charts, maps, and graphs—to keep him engaged and explain complex information.Key details regarding this include:
[Stephen Moore] (Economist/Advisor): In August 2025, economist Stephen Moore presented several charts to Trump in the Oval Office to show data on the economy. Moore noted, "He likes data, especially if it's good news," indicating that he tailored his presentations with visual charts that he knew would satisfy the president.
[Mike Pompeo] (CIA Director): In 2017, then-CIA Director Mike Pompeo stated that his role was to deliver intelligence briefings in a way Trump could best understand, which included using "killer graphics".
[National Security Council Officials]: Reports from May 2017 indicated that administration officials were keeping memos to one page and using visual aids such as maps, graphs, and photos, often including Trump's name frequently to maintain his focus.

   based on reports from early 2026, grocery prices have continued to rise during President Trump's second term, despite campaign promises to lower them. As of April 2026, food prices have generally continued to climb, with many staples rising faster than the general inflation rate. Key Food Price Trends (Jan 2025 – May 2026):Overall Food Inflation: Food prices continued to rise in early 2026, with year-over-year food inflation hitting 3.1% in February 2026 and remaining elevated. Significant Increases: Some staples have experienced sharp increases since January 2025, with coffee up nearly 35% and beef prices up over 21% by March 2026.Specific Items (2025-2026): As of early 2026, ground beef prices were up around 18% and orange juice up 22% since January 2025.Exceptions: Egg prices, which were highly volatile, declined by about 30% to 45% from their peak in early 2025 to May 2026.Dining Out: Food away from home (restaurants) has also seen consistent increases, rising at an annual rate of 3.8% through March 2026.Factors Affecting Prices: Tariffs: Analysts suggest that increased tariffs on imports have contributed to higher prices for goods like coffee and various foods. Supply Issues: Reduced cattle herds due to long-term droughts have driven beef prices to record levels. General Inflation: Food price inflation, while slowing in some areas, remains a significant factor for consumers, with the Bureau of Labor Statistics reporting elevated prices for staples.  I'M NOT LIKING THESE FOOD PRICES ALL THAT MUCH EITHER.

Under what metrics is the economy booming?

Unlike some previous years fueled primarily by investor sentiment, over 75% of the market's gains in 2025 were driven by actual, fundamental growth in corporate earnings-per-share (EPS).

In 2025, U.S. crude oil production reached all-time record highs, hitting over 13.6 million barrels per day. Overall oil and liquid fuels production hit 24 million barrels per day, outpacing Russia and Saudi Arabia combined.

Real GDP increased by 2.1% in 2025.  the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) reporting an advance estimate of 2.0% annual growth for Q1 2026.  Growth was primarily fueled by robust business investment.

Over 1 million jobs were added between January 2025 and March 2026.  The unemployment rate has hovered between 4.3% and 4.4%, which economists characterize as near full employment.  Significant gains were noted in healthcare, private-sector manufacturing, and small businesses, the latter of which contributed roughly 1 million jobs annually.

Real average weekly earnings for private-sector workers rose by 1.0% since January 2025.

The U.S. trade deficit dropped by 14% over the 12-month period ending in early 2026.

Working Families Tax Cuts: This legislation made permanent the doubled Child Tax Credit ($2,200) and introduced "No Tax on Tips" and "No Tax on Overtime," contributing to the largest average tax refunds in U.S. history (near $4,000 for families in 2026).

Significant capital has been deployed to strengthen the power grid, including billions invested in domestic uranium enrichment, small modular nuclear reactors, and reversing the planned shutdowns of several coal power plants to stabilize electricity reliability.
