Trump has put himself in a position where nothing will be done. It is his cabinet that has to send a letter to Congress to say the President is not acting rationally. Having replaced his cabinet with all yes men means he has taken this possibility off the table. The other possibility, that congress impeach him, is not on the table as Ryan and Mcconnell have made political decisions to enable the president. Trump has played this perfect but people keep underestimating him. He is untouchable except at the ballot box in 3 years and frankly, I think he'll be reelected. I mean this too, his actions have forever changed things and not for the good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are right, and his cabinet will not act, and the Dems don't regain majorities in both houses, it will take a very, very long time for the country to recover from this. I really do believe this to be true! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HawgGoneIt Posted April 2, 2018 Report Share Posted April 2, 2018 I think the market drop today came from China announcing their tit-for-tat tariffs on American goods. Of course the primary targets were American farmers. Pecans and swine getting huge tariffs placed on them. The pecan crop tariff is going to hit Georgia pretty hard. China discovering a love for the pecan had created a huge market and the price per lb. skyrocketed over the past few years. Farmers started gambling and planting pecan trees on their land. Effectively they have tied up their land for years to come, gambling on the strong demand from China. Lots of trees being planted and then Trump pops in with his trade war mess. Burning the "farmers for Trump" group that went all in for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The market and the economy are their own entities and it makes no difference who is in office relative to POTUS. One only needs to follow the history of each going back to the beginning of last century. All of the indicators that have preceded strong downturns in the past have been festering for some time now... abnormally high "run up" of the DOW - Obscene real estate values way above what they should be - A far too rapid growth of the tech industry where more jobs are eliminated for every new job created along with a ridiculous shift in the growth of the wealthiest around the world at the expense of the middle class, are just a few of the factors that will contribute to a sharp economic downturn. This is not just a US problem. When it crashes it will happen in most parts of the world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
