1. Did the Toxic-Wanna-Be-Mad-King Fat Boy just Crash the Global & Domestic Financial Markets?
2. Is it because of his goofy chart, and his prodigious & extraordinary stupidity?
3. Will today be one of those totally memorable market meltdowns where folks around the globe lose fortunes, nest-eggs, and life-savings?
4. Is that Panic I smell this morning?
5. WTF?!
6. What happens when the most successful, powerful and admired country on the planet, elects a very stupid, corrupt, felonious, obviously-psychotic, grifter & con-man to call the shots?
7. Will this be the day that the Recknoning Comes, or as REM sings: "It's the End of the World as we know it..."
8. How will the world react when the realization settles in that this President is insane & stupid. No, I mean, insanely stupid?
9. Where do we go from here?
Yikes. Double-Yikes. Am I being alarmist? I don't think so. I turn to some really smart folks and it's pretty clear this is a hair & pants on fire moment: “Never before has an hour of Presidential rhetoric cost so many people so much,” former treasury secretary Lawrence Summers posted. “The best estimate of the loss from tariff policy is now [close] to $30 trillion or $300,000 per family of four.”
Sure. We expected the Trump administration to wreck things. This rogue-fool is a total numbskull & reckless idiot. But, this takes it all to another level. Robbing the world of $ and sense!
I guess we are in for a very bumpy ride. Over here, in our little hidey-hole, closer to the street, we are hoping the fall & the crash will not be fatal. Praying the pieces don't fall on us.
