Keep up this pace of hyperbolic craziness! Don’t stop reading 4-froth rage or race baiting articles, and please try to add at least one “uneducated” in all your name calling posts. Don’t ever change. Meanwhile Trump’s approval rating continues to climb. I’m looking forward to Pres Vance in four years!


Another day, another Trumper’s lies.. From an article Monday, “In a new Economist/YouGov poll, the president has a 46 percent approval rating while 48 percent of those polled disapprove of the job he is doing. That is the first time since he was sworn-in that Trump is underwater, and it’s not likely to get better as..”



Another poll showed a majority of Americans believe he is exceeding his authority as president.

It’s predominantly because of Walmart.

I think the stock market will be volatile but ok for a bit. Wall Street is betting on Trump making things better. It’s going to take it a bit to realize he may break things in a not-easily-reversible fashion before he does them any favors.

At the same time, the broader economy is showing signs of weakness and Walmart issuing a weak forecast reflects that. I read a month ago that Wall Street was predicting a favorable earnings season and I am not sure it’s going to turn out that way.

“The overall number of US mergers and acquisitions collapsed nearly 30 per cent in January to 873 deals compared with a year ago, the lowest level since 2015, according to LSEG data. In dollar terms, deal activity fell 18 per cent compared with a year ago.”


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.


People are waiting to see who becomes the weak link. Then they will gobble up the weak ones.

It definitely feels like we’re headed for recession. I think the economy is on a knife’s edge and with over a million feds being fired this year I expect it to tip.

The Conference Board’s Consumer Confidence Index slipped to 98.3 for the month, down nearly 7% and below the Dow Jones forecast for 102.3. It was the largest monthly drop since August 2021.

Not that PP, but this is pretty close: https://thehill.com/homenews/5152706-trump-power-risky-poll/

Also basically all the recent polls are mid-bad for Trump and terrible for Elon. People are wising up...

How long do you give it. Government programs aren't getting funded (farms, schools etc...) causing a ripple down across the country. How long till people not paying attention see it?

Democrats slaughtered most of America’s chickens. Next, please.

What other prices have skyrocketed?
