The American legal system will be unable and/or unwilling to deal with it. Best chance is to send HIM to El Salvador if he ever relinquishes the office.
Absolutely not. Crimes committed within the u.s. such as treason get adjudicated in the u.s.
See my first sentence.
100%, its incredibly obvious.
No, I was watching the bond market. The bond market is very tricky. I was watching it, but if you look at it now, it’s — it’s beautiful. The bond market right now is beautiful. But, yeah, I saw last night where people were getting a little queasy.”
Hard to believe these are US Presidential quotes. Sounds more like some teenage barista smoking pot.
Don’t shit on teenagers smoking pot by comparing them to Trump lol
Haha you got a good point :)
Yeah, it’s insane. Usually I don’t follow what Trump says 1:1, but read about it in some news article, social media, etc. That is bad enough, but when I actually hear him speak sometimes, I need to cringe so bad… And then I remember a majority of Americans either decided “yep, that guy seems the best option” or “can’t see a difference between the candidates” and I lose all hope in humanity.
Honestly i think its just the endgame now for America. Trump gave tons of money to build up a massive secret police (ICE) and while they may come “only” for foreign criminals right now, they will be used against Americans in the future. It simular to Hitler and how he went after jews in the beginning.
Also the entire thing with Trump about bringing as much of production within their own borders, feels like he plans for the country to become more and more isolated from other countries in the future.
I think its a good time to look at options to get out of the United States if you can.
I’m not in the US and not planning to go there any time soon, so I’m good. I agree with the sentiment in general though😅
He made the announcement at 1:18, but there was a high volume spike in SPY at 1:02. He then introduced some friends, like Charles Schwab, in the white house later and said they had made billions. This crash was also the first time MTG bought stocks.
Should be an SEC investigstion with actual consequences for once. Probably won’t be, but there should.
anyone else buy the dip? because you know all his criminal friends did.
I don’t, but yes this is very blatant
must be the biggest insider trading event in history
If the FTC/SEC were staffed, they’d be very upset.
I bought the dip once, years ago. Made like, I donno. Couple hundred bucks. Sold all my crypto at the same time. That was cumulative with the other thing. Made a couple hundred bucks.
That’s the great thing about capitalism: anyone can make a ton of money, so long as they have a few tons of money.
I was just talking to my coworker at lunch that I’ll create an account and buy the dip. By the time we got back to our desks, I saw the news of the pause and everything shot up.
By the time it hits the mainstream media, it’s too late for you or me.
And nothing will happen. But i bet a new trans athlete will win 5th place in an event somewhere to divert magas attention.
Distraction is a primary job of capitalist media. Even better if it’s attacking a marginalized group. Always has been.
Didn’t that already happen? I thought they were all butthurt about some pool competition, like it fucking matters.
My favorite is people complaining about trans competitors in chess
Well you are that’s cause they developed a cunning male brain at birth, and now with hormones they also have a crafty female brain. Having two brains is an unfair advantage over the poor cis men and women who only have one brain.
This should be considered an act of war by…everyone, really. Everyone should pull their stuff out of the US market, be they ordinary Americans, Norweigian oil bonds, or German gold.
Trump will pull this shit again, he has a pattern of pulling the rug, and will keep doing so long after there is no more rug.
The fake leak about pausing tariffs earlier the past few days was the test to see how much money can be moved with one announcement
there’s 90 days window he can do however he wants and tank the market
I’m waiting for the market to either stop responding or crash and never recover since you can’t trust this fucking asshole.

Right, but this happens enough. They’re going to just be selling and buying back from themselves eventually.

Right
He has like 30 something felonies and openly admitted to rigging the voting computers. The man could commit murder on stage and still somehow continue being president.
Got a source? I remember him saying Elon was great at the voting computers but that’s not exactly the same thing.
Parent commenter may be recalling this story but not sure
Beginning at 2:31:24, the full quote reads:
[Musk] journeyed to Pennsylvania where he spent like a month and a half campaigning for me in Pennsylvania, and he’s a popular guy, and he was very effective. And he knows those computers better than anybody, all those computers, those vote counting computers. And we ended up winning Pennsylvania like, in a landslide, so it was pretty good, it was pretty good. So, thank you to Elon.
https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/trump-musk-vote-counting-computers/
He did? We have him on tape trying to get votes that didn’t exist, but haven’t heard much about voting computers being rigged.
He vaguely implied Elon was rigging them, saying he had a “little secret” that was going to win them the election
Vaguely implied is very different to openly admitted lol
Just telling you what I know I’m not the one who said he openly admitted it
I’m not implying you do, just acknowledging what you say is very different than what someone else says. Also not saying I don’t believe you, I do.
I’ve been saying this all along. Not just about this time, but he has pulled off a similar trade scare every month since he took office, with the same result - he announces tariffs, the market tanks, he rattles his sabre a bit, then pauses the tariffs, and the market rises again.
This has been the third, and biggest one, probably because he needed to make it a big one as he cried wolf for a third time. Which means the next time he does it, it will have to be even bigger.
Its clearly market manipulation, of a type that only president could do, but only if he were corrupt enough.
Unfortunately, if it were only the president who’s corrupt, he would have already been impeached and removed. Even if there were a question about whether he does or does not want to become an authoritarian dictator, ignoring everything that is hinting at it, he is digging himself in the sort of hole that he can only survive in as long as he retains power and I’m sure he knows it.
We can still end this democratically, but the window is rapidly retreating.
Won in 2012
Won in 2018
Won in 2020
Won in 2022
And this is where it got us.
Point to me the trade wars and civil rights rollbacks that happened during those times. We just had to keep doing the thing and keep pushing the needle towards progressive ideas and socialist policies that help people. That’s ALL we had to do together, it was working for a while.
But nope. Everyone lost their attention spans because social media and russian bots amplifying the worst of all sides of every issue until everyone said “fuck it, I don’t care, I rather see drama than boring, slow, incremental progress.”
edit: I am fully aware of how absolutely wicked Obama was, I don’t care in this context, we were making PROGRESS, even if small amounts, your knee-jerk desire to educate me about how bad the system is on both sides just makes me think you’re not reading and feel entitled to something and you will be blocked. You’re a huge reason we’re in this mess. I’m fully convinced that most of you don’t actually want good outcomes and you just want to feel validated and recognized.
US gained the rights to legally murder its own citizens without due process under Obama.
Also loads of giving corporations and capital rights, and rolling back protective anti-investment gambling under Democrat administrations, which ate up the rights of non-capital.
No part of this refutes anything I typed.
Murdering our own citizens without due process is massive civil rights rollback.
isnt there a video of him talking about how much him and his friends made from it? its not really an accusation at this point, he manipulated the market.
Who cares? Nothing will happen, there will be no punishment. None of his supporters care, why should I?
Oh, you rather not hear how you’re getting fucked over just so that later you can be all outraged nobody told you?
Get that “who cares” attitude out of here.
We all care.
Anyone who says it does not matter is a Russian bot for all I care.
Ignorance is bliss friend. At this point there isn’t much I can do but to protect mine and myself. We’re in a limbo period where folks aren’t mad enough to revolt, but are mad enough to be pissed off. We need to get a whole lot angrier before real action can happen. Holding up signs and being annoying isn’t going to affect real change with these people. So until the populace is at the angrier stage of things I don’t care to hear about all the illegal things the Trump admin does, I can’t possibly hate this guy more than I already do. All this info does is piss me off and ruin my day.
Five million Americans protested on April 5th.
Maybe if people like you actually showed instead of burying your head in the sand we’d have the results you are craving.
If you are on the side of Justice, your stance is the wrong one to take.
Solidarity is the right way forward. Take a break when it gets to be too much, but you cannot tune out just because you are upset.
Five million Americans protested on April 5th.
Cool story. Then what happened?
I can only assume you are all bots meant to discourage people from protesting, and others would be wise to report and call out these accounts.
What does protesting even do?
-
That’s five million Americans standing in solidarity.
-
That’s five million Americans connecting, organizing, and sharing resources.
-
That’s five million Americans not shopping or working that day.
-
That’s five million Americans being inspired to run for office and support others who are.
-
These protests are only going to get bigger and bigger as the word spreads.
Join them, or STFU about how nobody is doing anything.
That’s the problem with people like you. You just assume someone that doesn’t agree with your ineffective BS isn’t a real person. Keep protesting if you want IDC, but don’t be deluded into believing that will amount to real change against people that want those like us dead. Fascists don’t respond to peaceful protesting. Boycotting is much more effective than hitting the streets with signs. These cretins only respond to monetary loss.
Guess what?
Boycotting instructions and lists of MAGA businesses to avoid are spread at the protests.
Maybe you would know that if you actually attended one instead of being lambasted on the internet over your idiocy.

Just like every single politician. Ever heard of chuck and nancy?
These people are all trash.
