Michael Waltz is a female with ties to Obama? Then why did Trump appoint him/her? (S)He is, after all, the one who invited Goldberg into the
chat.

That was a buck stops here statement... There was someone who added the reporter into the group... They/Them were stripped of their security clearance.

News....

:Start
Among those let go were senior officials Brian Walsh, Thomas Boodry and David Feith, the three sources told NBC News.

Walsh previously was a top aide to Marco Rubio on the Senate Intelligence Committee. Boodry was a legislative director for national security adviser Michael Waltz when he was in Congress, and Feith worked for the State Department during Trump's first term.
:Stop

Trump said he'd fire anyone who does not have loyalty to the American people...

Trump is not a national security expert. They were using Signal, which
is not to be installed on government devices, meaning they were using their personal phones, which is a no-no for government information... classified, sensitive, or otherwise.

Yes he is... So far he's been right about everything.

Yes, I have seen the pictures from the chat from Goldberg's phone. It
clearly says that he was "invited by Michael Waltz." Waltz is the "someone" and, so far, his security clearance has not been stripped.

OTOH, Trump did fire and reassign some people based on the word of someone
who doesn't work for the goverment and likely has no idea what she is
talking about (Laura Loomer).

Meanwhile, Trump has also put "reciprocal tariffs" on a couple of islands
whose only inhabitants are penguins and seals. I was not aware that that penguins and seals were importing any US goods to have put tariffs on that
we could reciprocate against.

Meanwhile still, the stock market is going to hell in a handbasket.

Keep chugging that red kool-aid!

Here's a video explaining Trump's 5D Chess game. In the video he quotes Trump's Truth Social post, Warren Buffet and an interview Tucker had with Trump's advisor...

AND OMG... What Trump is doing, as per Trump and his advisors is smart beyond belief.

By driving the market down it forces the feds to lower interest rates... a "Normal" function of the feds in a market decline.

The Treasury is about to renew some debt and it'll be doing so at a lesser interest rate... saving 100's of billions in interest.

Mortgage rates are falling... this will benefit the working class...

Egg prices down and Oil prices are low, they are down to 2021 prices.

Several countries are dropping Tariffs towards the US and companies are moving production plants to the US and so far there is more than 6 Trillion dollars promised by companies to invest in the US to create jobs for Americans.

If the markets are down 20% in one month what a fantastic time to buy stock... It's on sale right now.

Tariffs alone wont save the day... Trump wants to reduce regulations and taxes as well. It's all three of those things that will ignite the manufacturing renaissance that he's talking about...

You view is myopic.

Presidents shouldn't be playing games when it comes to the welfare of the citizens of this country. If he and Elon want to do that with their
private businesses, that is all well and good. They have the money to
clean up their own messes. Most of the rest of us do not.

As long as we agree that he has 0 credibility I'm okay with your assertions.

Elon is only pointing out where waste is happening in the government... I can see where that is upsetting to the left.

On paper Elon has lost over 100 Billion dollars pointing out Fraud, Waste and Abuse of US tax dollars.

My apologies. I mentioned Musk which gave you an opportunity to change the subject. This was about the "5-d Chess" game that Trump is playing with
the financial welfare of the citizens of this country. What I said stands.
Doing that in his private businesses, many of which he bankrupted, is fine
and dandy. Most of us cannot afford this bullshit.

Your a hypocrite saying what you said about Trump when ignore everything

rior

Presidents have done.

There are plenty of former Presidents I've not been happy with.

The difference between you and I is that on the very off chance that what
is going on is actually "genius," I will admit it. If it sinks the economy,
you will just keep shoving your head farther up your ass and claiming all
is ok.

I do see hypocrisy there, but not where you do.

All of what Trump is doing is bettering the US and he's targeting the working class.

Bringing manufacturing back to the US will help the working class... If he wanted to help the elites he would have kept the Democrat policies.

Trump reorganized his Debt...
Snippet from and article about Trump's Chapter 11 filings...

:Start
Trump's four bankruptcies were Chapter 11 reorganizations (named for its location in federal bankruptcy code), which are designed to restructure businesses without shutting them down completely. The purpose is to "save" the business, as opposed to other forms of bankruptcy which would liquidate the company, said Michael Venditto, a partner at the ReedSmith law firm who has extensive experience with Chapter 11.

Because they keep coming up, we decided to outline Trump's four bankruptcies. We also talked to some finance experts, who told us Trump is correct that Chapter 11 reorganization is not always the result of bad business decisions.
:Stop

Like most successful people they keep trying even if it's hard to push through.

Having said that... Trump has run for President 3 times and has won 3 times.

He's worth Billions and had a great family... Sleeps with a Super model, sometimes naked, and has lived a wonderful life...

Mike, you are sooooooooooooo critical abut Trump... Please share with us your Resume... Please!!! Are you worth Billions and sleep, some times nude, with a Super Model??

The difference between you and I is that on the very off chance that what is going on is actually "genius," I will admit it. If it sinks the economy, you will just keep shoving your head farther up your ass and claiming all is ok.

He's not... He's bringing back jobs for the working class people of America. The Billionaires and the Elite class will adapt. I worked in the financial industry long enough to know that the market indexes have an inverse relationship to gravity.

Black Monday in 1987 where the market lost ~ 20% in one day... going from ~ 2500'ish to ~ 17500'ish... All the doom and gloom... Man...

The market is currently 37,806.62 as I write this...

Fun Fact... DOW's lowest point during the The Great Depression was ~ 42 points. 42... today it's 37,806.62....

By good stocks and hold is the best strategy by far...
