Tall Traveler is a one-trick pony. He has one talking point that he repeats over and over and over again no matter what he is responding to. Don't waste your energy trying to discuss anything with someone who has so obviously and willingly turned off his brain and resorted to rote recital of the same line again and again. There's no "there" there to debate with.

You should go do some more reading.

What does Hilary have to do with the current stock market? Are you trying to deflect from the Trump bear market? Well, it ain't working.

And I notice it's terribly curious you repeatedly ignore these following FACTS:


You're so desperate to blame something on the democrats, you close your eyes and completely ignore the fact that the stock market has been going though crashes on and off all year long. And it is a FACT that all these big tumbles have occurred while republicans have had 100% control of the power in Washington.
Give them a break. They put their money on "Trumponomics" and are losing the shirts off their backs. There is nothing left for them, except trying to blame someone else.

Phma went public saying the market was a great buying opportunity when it was 25 500 If he put his money where his mouth was, then I feel sorry for him.

You should go apply at the Fed and get it sorted out.
They don't raise interest rates in a weak economy they say.

More rate hikes coming they say. Tell them what to read to get them to stop.
Interpret the data for them.
Take Senator Warren with you she thinks its a great time to open a new business.
Sure sign that business is great.
No one knows more about business than those who have never started or run one, like Warren and Obama.
Warren wrote some books too. Maybe she will lend you one to read.

Don't forget they have reduced the amount of increases originally planned.

Hope you are right and I'm wrong.

I however say Trump owns both the rise and the decline. Just as Obama owns the market decline and the decline in the economy and jobs lost when he was in office. Also the pathetic recovery of both the markets and the economy.
The biggest difference so far is with Trump the economy is still strong and so is employment. Consumer confidence is still high along with other strong economic data. So its still to early to say game over with years left on the clock. Its only half time in the first term.
Russia, is that you again?

Lets face it, people on internet political forums chest pounding and boasting about the financial "moves" they are making with their portfolios probably don't have any money. Someone with substantial assets would only discuss such things in the most general sense imho.
