    So we aren’t getting DOGE checks? But MAGA was so confident in it. :(

    The hierarchy is showing its face now. I think trumph thinks he has leverage on Elon and Elon has stuff on trumph. Bannon is the spurned lover who is jumping in to destroy the bro love.

    There's never been a more embarrassing administration.

    That was a constant mantra from the trumph apologists, that we were not respected around the world with (fill in dem president name) in office. What do they constitute as behavior that would make other countries lose their respect for us? If not this, what???

    In fairness, it was multiple threads touching on slightly different topics that were merged into the Super Trumskgasm thread!!

    I think way too many MAGA confuse respect with fear. Biden's actions in Ukraine, increased AID to Africa and SE Asia and his belief that Israel should become more measured in their responses to Hamas had the US highly respected, just not feared. Trump's erratic, often schizophrenic behavior towards allies and perceived enemies alike scares a lot of people. Trump is the kind of unbalanced, wannabe authoritarian ruler that the Americans used to universally deride and target as enemies. Now, MAGA lionizes people like Putin, Kim Jun-Un, Nicolas Maduro, etc.

    Right here
    To be fair, this thread would definitely exist if the parties were reversed. Heck, we got a 5 page thread off of one mild tweet from Mark Cuban.

    ??? I think you mean yesterday. Markets are up today. I don’t think markets reacted much to the crazy. I wasn’t paying attention to this back and forth but I thought I saw TSLA was down big in after hours, but even that is slightly up today (albeit after a bad week).

    So we should just never talk about the current president and just sit idly by as he continues to become more and more unhinged and act like it isn’t happening? Got ya. No thank you. Funny enough, though, Trump appears to have a case of BDS, dude can’t go a day without evoking his name multiple times. Interesting how MAGA is quiet about that.

    I thought this morning "starts" were all down, but not to worry, as Trump continues fighting with ELON, the Fed, Other countries and does his tariff Yo Yo's I have confidence he will continue to drive investors insane, ergo the market.

    I'm in the steel business, he is wrecking serious HAVOC among my peers.

    Trumps a lunatic, anyone sane knows that, Elon wanted to be the big American Oligarch thus his support for the lunatic. Guess that may not be working out now. As far as a Elon wanting to run as a 3rd party candidate representing the 80% of "Middle America" I LMAO., yeah he's middle American alright.

    What I would give to have one of the Bush's back................
