Smarter people than me are saying that while not all of the drop in the market is Trump's fault, the fact we have an unstable government could well be a factor.
If the market continues to fall, rich people and CEOs will put pressure on Trump to stop his shit. Will that reign him in?

(34,282 posts)2. Even Vlad cant fully shut him up as he is an impulse only person.
Plus he has no brains, none. Clueless.

I've always thought they'd cut him loose after they got their tax cut.

It just about his only consistency.

He is too in love with his own "best words."
