You should be more concerned about his war on china

The "war" where they are about to sign trade agreements? Yeah, very scary. Orange man bad.

Either the news is bad and stocks don't do well or fed increases interest rates again which is also bad for stocks. I don't expect 2019 to be kind to stocks in general.

If it were a real emergency, like a major earthquake in California, sea level rise swallowing Miami, or Canada invading Detroit, there would be a huge exodus from the market to cash. Since the only emergency is that Trump is sad, no effect.

Is that why we poisoned Flint? Cause we heard the Canadians might have wanted that too?

Lol right before it crashed in December. IIRC, 2018 was a completely flat year for S&P 500.

And what’s happened since? Back to where we were wishing 3 - 5 percent depending on the index you track. #factsarefacts

Inconsequential, just like the lack of direct impact the other 56 or so times a president has declared an emergency since 1976. Did you engineers pay attention to any history classes or read any non tech books you weren’t required to in Uni?

Hmm, read ‘little red ridding hood’ & ‘50 shades of gray’, neither seemed to have any answers you claim they should...

I don't have CNN approval to read any books
