but 2017 was pretty much a continuation of the Obama market. In 2018 things got volatile. That's trump's market. Like his White House operation, it's chaos and his supporters are not filling the gaps.

...a few jokes Obama made at that Corredpondents Dinner.

He just can’t get over it. I bet his blood pressure is up still thinking about it.


I think if Obama knew the what those jokes meant to the future, he would have opted out.

The thinness if the the skin and any ability to laugh at himself.
Barack certainly would never unleash this ass to the world purposefully.

Hard to maintain that level of growth long term. Was due for a correction

Twitler sped up that process

factor that in versus what the Douche inherited and what he - el Douche - has done to the economy is catastrophic.
