Accurate predictions are hard, especially about the future. Trump should avoid getting caught up in the day-to-day on Wall Street:
Trump: Stock market declines are a 'big mistake' when there's so much 'good news' about the economy
President Donald Trump said Wednesday that the stock market made a "big mistake" by declining amid "good news" about the economy.
"In the 'old days,' when good news was reported, the Stock Market would go up. Today, when good news is reported, the Stock Market goes down. Big mistake, and we have so much good (great) news about the economy!" Trump tweeted shortly after the markets opened Wednesday.
And speaking of guys who ought to keep their stock market predictions to themselves, Paul Krugman weighed in yesterday. In brief, there are some economic positives yet clouds on the horizon; the stock market may be indicating a turning point, unless its not. But regardless, Trump and his team are dreadful.
Oh, whatever - Resistance Economics is amusing but unreliable. Krugman, of course, created an Instant Classic hot take on election night:
If the question is when markets will recover, a first-pass answer is never.
He has subsequently put that on his Never Mind list. Of course, his "analysis" yesterday will be recycled as "I called the market top" if the stock market is down a year from now, so he's got that pony in the race anyway.
UNPOSSIBLE Anonamom. Donald Trump drinks 26 DIET COKES per day. One for each hour of TEEVEE watching.
How do I know this???? I hang out in airports.

Another point about parades that won't escape the notice of normals...
The left thinks a military parade is in bad taste, but gay naked people parading around and women dressed as vajayjays are A-OK.
Every time he trolls them like this and they all start on the same talking points/outrage of the day, I think of the parade from Animal House and the band going down the alley ending up smushed against the wall.

Miss Marple 9:16. BINGO. They were in WAY WAY TOO DEEP. Trump gets elected. They get found out.

Posted by: Captain Hate | February 07, 2018 at 09:23 PM
I ran across another reason to have the military parade on another web site - I think CTH.
If you were going to arrest a lot of people, and you couldn't count on the FBI and the DC Police were compromised and there was the possibility of rioting, having a bunch of military in the Capitol wouldn't be a bad thing.
Not agreeing - just putting it out as something to consider.

Steph, how about PINK PUSSY HAT PARADES.
"I AM A NASTY WOMAN. A NASTY WOMAN!!! Bloody sheets etc etc etc"
OR
Madonna lamenting about how she would love to blow up TRUMP and the WHITE HOUSE.
Then PETER STRZOK'S HORSE FACED FRIEND, bitching about the PRO-LIFER'S making her sick...........
I PRESENT TO YOU....THE FULL COMMIE PARTY. No values, no morals, no logic, FEDERAL GUBMNT JOBS, PAY, VACATION, DAYS OFF, PENSIONS.....AND CORRUPTION!!!
Yay Democrats!!!!!!!

GUS,
I think they decided to frame Trump even when they were positive Hillary would win.
I have posted that quote from Plouffe before, but it demonstrated a determined effort to destroy Trump. AND his family. AND his business.
The motive was both revenge (birth certificate for Obama and mocking her for Hillary) as well as a Lesson to Us All.
Did you know Carter Page worked for the FBI and the Clinton transition team? Why would he suddenly be suspected as a Russian agent? I think he was a PLANT and an excuse to wiretap Trump and the campaign. It was a true frame-up.
Once Trump won (which I consider an absolute, bonafide miracle of God) they then scrambled to manufacture a reason for why they were doing all of this stuff.
I want people to go to prison for this. It is absolutely horrible.
And it is easy for Millenials to understand, as I demonstrated earlier with my daughter's comment about planted evidence.
Posted by: Miss Marple the Deplorable | February 07, 2018 at 09:31 PM
ATTENTION JOM FRIENDS.
The MILITARY PARADE schtick, is/was classic DJT trolling his adversaries. Knowing completely that the FULL COMMIE would overplay their TINY HAND, he trolled them. Trump owns these people, he makes them crazy and then he punishes them, by making them piss all over themselves. As almost all of you know, I am from a MILITARY FAMILY, both parents buried at ARLINGTON. I would love a military parade, especially this NOV, the 100th anniversary of WWI coming to an end. BUT. It's symbolic, and the FULL COMMIE, will NEVER FIGHT FOR AMERICA, they are too busy trying to figure out how to be COMMIES and ABORTION LOVERS, and ILLEGAL ALIEN LOVERS, and whatever flavor is todays flavor. TRANNIES etc.

Miss M, they DECIDED to FRAME Trump, on the same evening that RODHAM got her MAO OUTFIT shoved up her ample ass. They attempted to frame him in advance, and it didn't work, Rodhams own CRIMINAL ACTIVITY was out there, and the TRUTH was AVOIDED by the MFM, as if it was RADIOACTIVE (HEHEHEHEEHEH)
The law breaking prior to election day, was just stupid and unnecessary. It is the SOP of THE FULL COMMIE. Rodham is so stupid, so fat and ugly, that she chose to spend TWELVE FUCKING MILLLLLLION DOLLARS on HORSE SHIT.....rather than campaigning in MICHIGAN, OHIO, and WISCONSIN.
That is how VAPID this C### IS. Rodham couldn't be bothered to win, OSTENSIBLY on the UP and UP, NOPE, she'd rather CURB DIVE and CORONA.
RODHAM got away with TOO MUCH for TOO LONG, to fear consequences. She's a PIG. An evil PIG.
Posted by: GUSt | February 07, 2018 at 09:41 PM
narciso,
Here is my question. Since the FBI was in charge of background checks, how did Porter get approved if this was on his background check?
Was the FBI incompetent, or did they hold the information to use it later?
Why didn't the ex-wives go public before now? Why didn't they speak up when he was hired?
I don't support spousal abuse, but something is not right about this.

Breaking. Transcript of Nancy Pelosi's speech.
Good morning, flowers and then one day we went for a bike ride I told Rafael not to get too close to the fruit stand. Then we all went back to Jimmy's for a wonderful lunch of lobster rolls and chardonnay it was given to me personally by President Filmore. It's really bright in here. I am honored to welcome my good friend and colleague Paul Wellstone. I was really surprised it rained today but the grapefruit I had for breakfast was wonderful. Is it hot in here? I think it is. Will someone tell Javier to turn down the furnace or open some windows. Oooh, windows. I like birds!

My folks had a cabin near Townsend and we used to go up there every year, also frequentin Wabeno. I have great memories of your state.
My dad was always a Packers fan. Once, when we were heading up to the cabin, he had us detour to Lambeau field and just stand in the parking lot and look at the stadium. Them we went to Mader's German restaurant where we had sauerbraten!

Buckeye---
The British provincial rulers of Virginia were all about commerce and taxation. It was why Bacon's Rebellion, resulting in the burning of the House of Burgesses, was such a threat.
I believe Poca was Delaware, according to present day chief Billy Tayak-- a close personal friend of mine (they'll never be recog'd by the federalies because they fought with the Brits during the Rev).
Having said that there are records galore in Virginia county offices about *EVERYTHING*--- who owned what and who intermarried with native tribes to cement families and Rev.
Happy Hunting!

I still remember his rant about the discovery of the ambassador's diary in the ruins of Benghazi by CNN and how nuts he got. It was covered extensively on Ace's site.
Morris points out how Blumenthal was the specialist in dirty tricks for the Clintons.
Reines is defending the FBI and the Clintons and pointing out that Morris was fired.

The slave problem was rooted in the "popular representation" ratios the colonies were working from. Some of the colonies had over 2 million slaves. Oopsie. They needed a multiplier.
Re the illegals voting---- that ship has sailed with the stolen drivers licenses, social security cards (like The Rat motherfucker's)and other "documents.
