  1. Trumpenstein’s “Liberation Day” is doing a fine job of liberating everyone’s retirement account balances. Maybe some of the CEO’s whose compensation is determined by their company’s stock price can talk some sense into the Orange Idiot before we get a full blown depression.

    • Tangerine Man and his merry men are a major disappointment. I thought/hoped maybe, just maybe, it wasn’t all just an act. But it’s clear now he’s just the current fountainhead of the big club we aren’t in. Obvious his role is to push the teetering economy off the cliff and commit our treasure to Isn’treal. So he deported a small handful of lowlifes and put a lid on the perverts for a while? None of that matters when it all collapses and takes us down. He”s Kameltoe with a red hat. F him.

      • Today was an EXCELLENT day for the Pooch-Screwer-in Chief:

        REPORTER: “The markets today are way down … because of the tariffs. So, how’s it going?”

        TRUMP: “I think it’s going very well. It was an operation, like when a patient gets operated on & it’s a big thing. I said this would exactly be the way it is …”

        • Morning, Jim!

          Trump is either an imbecile or he is evil. Which of the two remains unclear at this point. But does it matter insofar as the effects? If – as now seems inevitable – the economy is going to tank, the masses will scream for Communism. And then we’ll get it.

        • It is an SMO, Special Meltdown Operation.

          The project is on time and on target.

          Agenda Schmenda, it is fubar and snafu.

  2. Trump says he wants to run again, despite no longer being constitutionally eligible. I’m actually for this.

    1) Let Trump run for a third term.
    2) Have Massie primary him and win.
    3) We all laugh.

    • Hi Horst,

      Trump is 78 now, so he’ll be around 82 at the end of the current term. He’d be 86 at the end of a putative third term. Hope he’s getting top shelf Adrenochrome…

  3. For policy nerds: Trump’s reciprocal tariffs actually are not based on other countries’ tariff rates … which on average, are in mild single digits. Instead, the Trumptards just divided each country’s nominal trade deficit with the US by the absolute total of US imports from that country.

    According to a German banker, “There are no specific policy asks per se, but ultimately just a desire to reduce US bilateral trade imbalances” — which are structural, and an unavoidable result of the exorbitant privilege of hosting the global reserve currency.

    ‘It is an explicit bet on the fate of the USD as a reserve currency: it could work out, and eventually reduce the amount of debt the US needs to issue every year proportionally to how much the US trade deficit shrinks … or it could all blow up spectacularly.

    Gold is the anti-Trump — the one asset the Orange Onanist can’t turn to sh*t with his uncanny reverse Midas touch.

    As a member of the sayanim [‘helpers’ in Hebrew], Trump is implementing an Israeli pincer movement to destroy America:

    1. Impose savage tariffs to euthanize the middle class and usher in Depression II.

    2. Dissipate our shrunken wealth by kicking off a disastrous new permawar against Iran, added to Israel’s regional target list in 1997.

    This is the only escape valve to depose the murderous, malignant tyrant:

    Article III, Section 3, Clause 1: Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court.

    Trump is a faux-populist puppet, implementing a final plan to liquidate America.

    • Trump’s favorite color is on full display on the stock exchanges this morning. A sea of red is what you do see.

      Ain’t no walk in the park.

      A good day to get drunk.

      • S&P 500 is down 4 percent, smacked silly. Tahhhrrfs, as they say up in the hollers — bad for biz! (Who woulda thunk??)

        My MAGA brother-in-law, a stock broker, has got some ‘splainin’ to do this morning for his panicked clients.

        There’s a trouble around, it’s never far away
        The same trouble’s been around for a life and a day
        I can’t forget the sound, ’cause it’s here to stay
        The sound of people chasing money and money gettin’ away

        • The angered orangutans controlling the markets are slapping the snot out of the Orange Nut and his monkey business.

          War is good bidness and bidness is good… until it’s not.

          You gotta go postal or something, total panicking until the cows come home.

          I’ll take dumbshits for 2000, Alex.

          Your answer in the form of a question.

          Who is Donald Trump?

          Correct. Donald Trump is one dumbshit, hands down.

          The market agrees.
