The interest rates were artificially low. It was only a matter of time. As the Fed, which I suspect is part of the Deep State, raised rates, it made the economy go south, which was intended to make Trump look bad.

Either that, or my other theory is that the bogus market was working with the artificially low wages but once Trump helped them start to rise, the bubble burst.


Either way, I think the Dow incident was rigged.

Oh please. If it was a ticking bomb, the administration has had over a year to deal with it. Stop making up excuses like this, it just makes you folks look bad.

No kidding. I had a response typed out and I had to hit the back button and just stop. There is a serious illness here put in people's mind by these far-right fringe people. It's actually kind of scary to see it infecting people.

It's almost like being unintelligent is fashionable now. Frightening!

I thought I heard it all, but apparently not. The conspiracy fairy making its daily visit today?

Forget the Deep State - Looks as if the incidence of Deep Paranoia posts here on C-D's Politics forum is escalating.

In addition to this one, we've currently got threads going questioning the patriotism of those who fought for American independence during the Revolutionary War, a post somewhere - can't recall which oddball thread - that favorably compares Donald Trump with George Washington, and another equating socialism with Naziism and supporting child labor, plus one touting Vladimir Putin as the best thing since sliced pirogies.

All claims of Trumpites.

Or possibly their Russian troll counterparts, whom I expect will be come much more vocal in the days and weeks ahead.
