Trump Caves On China/Stock Performance Under Recent Presidents...

Posted By Rod Kaufman

I don't know(or care) if Greg hasn't been keeping up on current events but the facts are the stock market and rest of the country just got its collective ass kicked today because the bond market yield curve inverted today and that, of course, heralds the onset of a recession.The latter is occurring specifically as a result of Trump's trade war with China so unless one of 'em continues to blink, and it'll be Trump in an election year, Greg's comments are as useless as a festering boil on a rat's ass in a snowstorm...

So, no one thinks buying Greenland is a good idea? Trump thought of it, so is that crazy talk, or what?
Greg was just joking. Just Like Trump was when he said he wanted to buy Greenland...
"The report said Trump’s interest has had “varying degrees of seriousness,” but said he has asked advisers about it repeatedly. Sources told the Journal that Trump may see Greenland as an Alaska-like purchase that would expand America’s reach and serve as his lasting legacy.
Of course, another source said it was more of a joke meant to indicate he’s powerful enough to buy a country, and told the Journal “since Mr. Trump hadn’t floated the idea at a campaign rally yet, he probably isn’t seriously considering it.”

Oh, I see, Trump didn't say it at a rally yet so it must be a joke. Want to hear another one? Mexico is going to pay for the wall...

Now that we know he's serious about it, I'd think you'd be jumping on the bandwagon at this point and telling us all how brilliant he is...

Despite what Trump said today, Rich had it right all along: it's a big joke that nobody takes seriously. It's right down there with Mexico is going to pay for the wall.
The Danish PM think "It's absurd".
Now, getting back to the topic at hand:

I'm going with the Danish PM on this one!
As far as the market goes, the number one thing that would send it ballistic would be to fire Navarro...
