And you're dumb enough to sit there thinking Trump's idiotic tariffs have no impact on the global economy.


Trump, a global loner, finds his China trade war complaints draw a crowd

Trump's foreign policy has shredded the status quo on a range of issues, from global trade and transatlantic relations to Iran and North Korea.

NASDAQ and S&P 500 are where they were in May 2017.

The DOW Jones is where it was mid-September 2017 and has dropped 16% since January 2018.

After dropping more than -400 again today.

So it seems that all the downward movement is coincidental to the Democrats winning the House in November...im sure its just a coincidence.

Geez, you’re stunningly predictable. This stuff is so bad that even you know it sounds inane.

What new legislation or policies has the incoming and not-yet-seated Blue Wave enacted, and to what effect on the economy?

Thank you for linking to an article that talks about any number of factors that could be affecting the predicted cycle, none of which focus on incoming Democrats, but some of which relate to Presidential behavior or actions.

Seriously, though, you didn’t need to reload the gun and shoot yourself in the foot yet again. You should have just quit when you were behind.
