Hardly worth reporting what the deplorables say any more. They don’t deserve any more oxygen for their ‘burn down liberal democracy’ fire.

I am really surprised there hasn’t been more comments about this.
What the fuck is that?
A historical abortion, perversion for what?
A political statement, symbols do have meaning.
Whatever it should be seen as an insult to any ‘true’ American. Also be taken as a big worry to the rest of the world, where is the USA going with this?

One of the hardest things for anyone is to admit they’ve been conned.

I thought you meant that but had to verify :joy:.
You never know. There might be another meaning/sense.

Eapecially if you’ve handed over some of whatever little money you have.

It’s the grift I find the most galling, tbh.

I think what is most adorable about that idiocy is that he obviously thinks there is enough of a liquid market for there to be such a thing as short positions held by outsiders. The whole damn thing is a short play by the Trumps.

Interestingly, oil traders aren’t falling for it. Many have simply stopped looking at the oil market for now. That has helped suppress the price of oil.

They’ll be back though, when oil reserves run dry.

Oil is very different, because there is something real there, and it is an enormous market - the traders have pulled in their horns because the real supply and demand cycle is being gamed. Trump crypto is basically a rigged game in a virtual casino with relatively few players.

Not sure if this is late but I heard today that tariffs have been lifted on fertilizer from Morocco. That’s to cover next year’s planting season.

Warning on food prices. His Big Mac might go up in price a bit.

Yeah, it was the rigged game I was getting at, and how they were smart enough to get out. Unlike certain people looking at Trumps dodgy coin.

Bit like Space X investors too I guess. They can see it.

Trying to replace Chinese supply, I suspect. China is the #1 producer of phosphate fertilizer, followed by Morocco

I work with a couple of Trump(ettes) (as i call them),
they adore him, he cant do anything wrong…

1 of them proudly told me that Donald is the only president in American history to lose wealth during his reign. I did try and research this, but lost interest as i couldn’t really be bothered arguing with him.

But I did have a think about it, and realised that Donald makes his fortune from real estate, golf courses, casinos etc, and Donald (drink bleach) was president during the Covid times when all these places were shut or work had stopped.

Everyone lost wealth during Covid.

the Trump(ettes) still wont have it though…

anyway, he’s certainly making up for losing his wealth during Covid times now

the grift is on…

The US is finally being respected again, is the line I’ve read a fair few thousand times by Americans
