If Joe Biden had caused the losses in the stock market trmp has, they would have removed him from office.

Best economy in history, the envy of the world, and -- bam -- it's gone up in a cloud of smoke, removed for thiefkeeping by Trump, Musk, Thiel and a couchhumping little fellah in a bellhop uniform.

Pretty sure he is unhappy about that...

( oh you meant the OTHER Dow, it's dead too now and we know who killed it! Trump always said he could shoot someone on 5th Avenue and not lose any support... let's see if that is true for Wall Street instead of 5th Ave )

Jerome Powell, I suppose. They really wanted him to cut interest rates, but that was a ridiculous fantasy.

Maybe they consider it 'old' news and are off to the next shiny thing.

Of course, anyone with a smart phone or computer can access the damage in real time. Right now:

All in the red.

It's the American Carnage Trump referenced in his first inaugural! Only the context is different.

The only news Trump can generate is bad news. None of it is good for capitalism in general.
