I'm one hundred percent convinced, the future historians will look back at this era and wonder if something happened to the drinking water supply. An administration that started with a memecoin, a president who has pardoned literal scammers, now frontrunning his own announcements. What's next?
The timing
I'm going to give this one to Donnie. He's mastered the art of "getting away with it". Maybe that should be the title of his next book- actually.
On Monday a reporter named Walter Bloomberg had announced that the White House was considering a 90 day pause on all tariffs. For tweeting this, the reporter got attacked and insulted. Turns out he was right, but I'm sure an apology will never come- Why would it?
The green markets we are now seeing is a direct reaction to this 90 day pause. One, that I'm not convinced marks the end of the journey into the world of stupid.
However, the president did announce his 4d chess move hours before on his Truth Social account- Did we listen?
I guess, if you are among the select group of people who still believe in politicians, maybe this would have made you buy. But of course, most people are just confused. The mixed messaging of the administration is as clear and objective as reading coffee grounds on my morning cup of joe to make market calls.
About three hours later, the 5D Chess move(He upped the game) that rips time and space gets finally announced:
Only China will remain on a chokehold. The tariffs imposed on China are now increased heavily. The markets react accordingly, and the talking heads begin to celebrate the move to the upside.
Some reporters attempted to get some clarification from the President. It seems obvious to anyone that is watching, that the White House seems to not have a clear plan forward. But Trump, being his usual self, clarifies nothing, and simply says people were being too Yippy, too Panicked, Panicans, he called them. A pat on the head -there, there- to the folks who saw their 401k lose value faster than a rug pulled crypto project.
Does it really matter?
I'm of the idea that the next four years will be more of this type of behavior. More chaos, more market manipulation, more unjustified mixed signals, more instability for the US and of course, for the world.
The pendulum is moving to the other side with aggression. I fear that when it comes back, it's going to destroy a lot of individual freedoms, attempting to put back the demons released from this pandora's box.
MenO
The White House has a plan. Maybe it's not clear, but there's a plan. Is it the White House's or just Donald Trump's or does the two mean the same thing, that's debatable.
The plan is and has been from the beginning, to bully everyone, so they they come back begging. Simple as that. Look back to the 3 months he is in office and see what he has been doing. He's been criticizing everyone since day 1 and bullying those who need the US's help.
He's delusional, to say the least. He said China is the biggest abuser. Tell me honestly, how is China or any other country an abuser? If the US had no trade tariff with China, who's fault is it? If the EU doesn't want to buy products from the US (this is one of his favorite topics) who's fault is it? Can you bully any country to buy your products? Is that how commerce works?
Let's see how he's going to treat those who are not retaliating and willing to try to negotiate. I know Meloni is heading to the US to negotiate, although the EU said they choose retaliation and I agree with this decision. It's going to cause a lot of damage, but succumbing to bullying is even worse.
You have to see this video. It blew my mind. I saved it, because I'm sure it will be deleted. But more and more people need to see this shit.
Yup, we knew this is what they are doing. Shocking.
When he was allowed to literally scam people with his memecoin—a US president scamming people with a shitcoin—and no one pushed back or even batted an eye, I knew we would be in for a wild ride of him doing everything possible to make money.
The funny thing is he's never been rich. It was always a lie. He lost the money his dad left him and every time he managed to borrow money, he'd shortly after go bankrupt again. But now for the first time in his life, he probably is legit rich.
The best is yet to come my friend.
You know... I was telling my wife that there's a good chance I will begin to hide the fact that I'm American myself. Like, I won't lie. I'll just avoid the subject altogether and speak 0 English in public, even with her.
I'm too... Embarrassed. People want me to give them answer that I don't have. It's fahckd
Donald J freaking Trump’s tariff games just make the markets even more unpredictable that usual. One of the hardest things to do is to trust anything when the rules change every day
We don't understand bro because we aren't as smart as the man.
You see: It's Donald J Trump, the J stands gor jenius. He knows what he's doing.
Jenius 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 that's my word of the day. So much winning
Who is disrespecting the markets? I think they were pissed off with tRump. He also insulted world leaders by saying they 'kissed his ass'. He is ruling by fear, not respect.
I'm sure he and others cashed in on the chaos whilst regular people may have suffered. Nobody is holding him to account and it seems he can do illegal things with no consequences.
Buy my new book "The Art of getting away with it" available at fine bookstores everywhere.
I bet someone else wrote it for you ;)
Listen, after the Bible, the best book ever is my book that I wrote, Ok. It says things LIKE you wouldn't believe Ok. There's words in there, good words, old school words, like: groceries.
Anyone's heard that before? no? Groceries.... I like that word.
Anyways. My book, yes, its great.
I do t even know what to make out of this Trumps shenanigans…he’s definitely playing pun with the economy. The sad thing is that we are in for this heck for four years
he's just lining his pockets. There is no other reason for this. I'm convinced there isn't.
It’s obvious
Him making that tweet about buying and then calling pause…he just knows the reverse would happen already
Only a few months ago, I had no idea how quickly lying, manipulation, unpredictable madness and insider trading would become part of a government programme. However, a glance across the Atlantic is enough.
that should be enough to worry anyone, but I have friends who see nothing wrong with it. Some people think its all part of the plan to make America great. I'm at a loss of words.

I'm sure many of his friends made a ton of money during that bounce!
