"...the stock market went up 88% in my first term... more than any president has had in any term in office... BY FAR."
You know... except for Clinton II, Reagan I, Roosevelt I, and Coolidge I.
Other than those President, Trump isn't lying!

It's ok guys, Trump knows what he's doing. He's never bankrupted every company his name has touched before.

Which countries are spared?
... Moscow was spared because sanctions imposed on the country after its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022 mean that U.S.-Russian trade had effectively stopped. North Korea, Cuba and Belarus, which are also subject to tough sanctions, were also excluded from the new levies.
Also an interesting contrast:
Iran [...] was hit with 10 percent tariffs, the lowest tier on the White House’s list and lower than the rate imposed on Israel, a staunch U.S. ally.

I am hopeful this is a 4D chess move where Trump tanks the market, then over the next 3 years "no one has made the stock market go up 200% in 3 years!"... like a cursive capital V.

This is idiocy. The whole trans thing is a blend of insanity and evil. So yeah, still better than the alternative. I will say that I was counting on Congress to shelter us a little from his more self/destructive impulses.

It’s TDS to think the largest tax hike in history should go through Congress.

For the record (just) one of the tax hikes during WW-2 was higher as a percentage of GDP.

Yes, and I now have it from an anonymous albeit unimpeachable source that the derangement aspect of TDS has now progressed to the demonization phase. It’s just sooo unfair to the mango Mussolini.

Someone once said that Maga analysis comes in two forms: ‘Trump is DESTROYING his enemies’ and ‘Mr Trump is being treated very unfairly’. Nothing in between.

I imagine the MAGA people are very disappointed in how disloyal Wall Street is currently being.

I think the best thing we can do at this point is to nationalize the stock market.
