Is Obama going to take credit for the drop? He was more than happy to chime in on the rise!

 

Much like December, 2018, any downturns are solely Trump's fault. The following rebounds are all due to Obama's careful and glorious stewardship. PRAISE BE OBAMA!

The Left is quietly cheering for the coronavirus to spread and the stock market to sink in order to take down Trump.

 

Which only proves this is emotional for them, not logical. 

 

Emotional people make poor choices -- like supporting a coup and overreach by the administrative state simply because they hate the president without thinking through the long term implications of their advocacy.

The Left will be down right giddy if the coronavirus is still spreading when tornado season starts soon.

“We’ve contained the virus very well here in the U.S.,” Mr. Kudlow said, adding, “I don’t think it’s going to be an economic tragedy at all.” ?

The coronavirus could affect the United States economy in several ways. If supply chains are disrupted by quarantines in trading partners, there could be a short-term hit to production and growth. If the spreading virus makes investors skittish and causes a protracted market slump, that could feed through to credit conditions, making it harder for households to borrow and spend. If more infections come to American shores, prompting quarantines, the fallout would be even more pronounced.

Bray wants attention? 

 

Maybe consumer confidence won’t take as big of a hit as the market is assuming. Because consumer consumption drives the economy. Airlines, hotel chains, concert promoters, ship lines have all gone down hard. If people are afraid to travel and spend money....

Never understood the ignore thing.

 

Why deny yourself a good laugh.

 

The only dumbasses that ever made it to my ignore list are the ones who are going out of their way just to be offensive. That ain't Tibs.

He doesn't go out of his way to be offensive, but he does go out of his way to say the most embarrassingly stupid stuff that I have to put him on ignore just to stop believing someone can purposely be that ignorant.

I get entertainment value out of that. To each their own.

This could cost Trump the election, there is no doubt. 

 

I will cheer Trump losing for sure. 

 

You better hope this virus tails off or gets solved so that the market rebounds.  Otherwise Bernie's Wall St. tax isn't gonna be able to fund the free stuff.

Nah, he'll just sue another industry (after oil and gas) for the trillions he needs to fund the free stuff. Maybe coal?

Tibs, in a snit, I'm sure, did an off the wall "oh you're gay" thing towards me.

 

He can be a sassy one when he's befuddled..

 

But, yeah, Tibs is fine in here.
