[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why does MAGA think Trump is going to be the one to push back on corporate greed? Are they seriously idiots?

The budget they passed mostly helps the corporations and the rich.  If MAGA really wanted an anti-establishment, anti-capitalist leader, they should vote for AOC or Bernie, and I don't support either.[/quote]

I don't know about corporate greed.  Washington has a lot more to do with greed than Wall Street.  You know who is making the rules. Wall Street is responding to Washington.

Oh, and if you think the GOP is the problem, you had three terms of Obama recently.  The global economy is moving forward. Are democrats? Hell no they aren't.[/quote]
Are you kidding?  DC politicians are bought by corporations.  Hello? Musk?  I am suspect of your knowledge about how things work.

My stock portfolio did mostly great under Clinton and Obama.  It tanked under Bush and now Trump with his chaotic policies.

The global economy is moving forward without the US because of Trump and his asinine trade policies.  Countries have stated that they need to move on from the US. They want to rely less on the US, and Trump's policies have pushed more countries towards China.

Trump is an idiot, and the damage to our country will soon be irreversible.

My quibble here is with your portfolio. It is down???[/quote]
It went down, as everyone's did.  It did go back up, but we lost several month's worth of growth.   I am nearing retirement age, so that hurt. But, it hurt people who are retired even more.

I am old enough to  have lived through a few recessions, including the crash in 2008.    Interestingly, the recession years were all during a R presidency.  Now, as a former R, that was hard for me to swallow. But looking at the numbers for the past 40 years, that's how it played out.  And it appears that the economy swung back to positive during the subsequent Dem POTUS.

I'm now an Independent, but if I just look at the numbers and care about my portfolio,  I'd say vote Dem for POTUS.[/quote]
