Trumps approval rating may be high among his base now, but that’s a big assumption that it will continue as the economy craters. It’s also a huge assumption to believe that his approval is transferrable, especially to the guy everyone mocked for f***ing a couch. |

The penny is minted in a small county in Tennessee. They are begging Trump to reconsider because the loss would financially cripple the county. The county voted overwhelmingly for Trump. https://www.newsweek.com/end-pennies-may-cost-jobs-trump-supporting-county-2029309 Don't care about them, they wanted to overthrow our system of government. What's really funny though is that this move will cost us money. A nickel costs 14 cents to produce. Yes, there are hidden costs it turns out to stop making pennies.

Only a third of Americans think they’ll be better off financially in a year than they are now.

Wow, look at that drop among Rs in just one month. |
I've seen a couple headlines trying to spin this, saying that M and A is waiting a little longer, will start up soon. 2025 will be a great year for acquisitions soon. Sure guys. Any day now. |
Walmart the barometer of the nation’s economy reported this morning. It beat on the top and bottom, but have very weak guidance for the upcoming year. The stock price immediately dropped 8% pre-opening. |
