"She's gotta be stopped" CNBC's Cramer says Wall St Freaking Out Over Warren

https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2019/9/10/1884656/--She-s-got-to-be-stopped-CNBC-s-Cramer-says-bank-execs-freaking-out-over-possible-Warren-victory?detail=emaildkre

snip of article:

Elizabeth Warren is surging, and Wall Street is noticing.

During a recent discussion about Wall Street’s take on Elizabeth Warren’s candidacy, Jim Cramer, the host of CNBC’s Mad Money, said executives are absolutely terrified at the prospect of a Warren presidency:

“Look, I’ve got to tell you, when you get off the desk and you talk to executives, they’re more fearful of her winning. I mean, I’ve never heard anybody say [before], ‘Look, she’s gotta be stopped. She’s gotta be stopped!’ I don’t know, she’s very, she keeps going up in the polls. … She’s gonna win Iowa, I believe. She’s a very compelling figure on the stump.”

"She's got to be stopped."

Jim Cramer and a @CNBC panel discuss Wall Street executives being absolutely terrified of Elizabeth Warren and how they've never seen anything quite like it before. This is the greatest Warren campaign ad possible. pic.twitter.com/VCrGOfxOX0

Translation: Wall Street has been allowed to siphon wealth from our economy for four decades with impunity, and if Warren wins, that bullshit ends.



Hmmm.... they're scared of a woman who will shake things up. Too fucking bad.

A couple of weeks ago when Trump claimed he'd spoken to Chinese officials and they "wanted to make a deal" and the Chinese said, "No, there have been no phone calls," Zero Hedge reported that Cramer went on TV and said, "Who cares if the President is lying, the stock futures are up!"

That's right 1%. I want what you've got. A government that does good things for me and the rest of the working class.

They've told us for decades now that government is the enemy and can't do any good. It does real well for you if you're at the top. That's where much of our tax dollars go. Many of those people are way in the black on tax dollars. They rake in more than they ever pay out.

It makes her an all the better candidate for the people.

Cramer's drama is pathetic, but then, he makes a living off of that and bad advice.

Stopped, huh?

just force them to follow some rules and behave in an ethical manner.

Wow, Rules and Ethics.

Why would anyone object to those two things?

Capitalism is fine, but it requires regulation to avoid the human habit of greed.

She is only reflecting the angst and will of the people who are tired of getting the shortest end of the stick.

Where did your cash flow go in life? Do you have it? Or did it build Corporate Skyscrapers and infrastructure and dividends for people who own $4 million dollar estates and mansions?

The incentive system works, it makes jobs, but working people have little guarantee of a fair cut of the cards.

Has everyone forgotten that he bragged about illegally manipulating the market?

https://appleinsider.com/articles/09/03/13/jon_stewart_exposes_apple_stock_manipulation

And I firmly believe Warren's policies will be great for Wall Street as a whole. A rising tide lifts all boats. The CEO's that have the most to fear are the ones that are taking advantage of monopolistic practices that should be illegal.
