      If you're into the stock market, you'd better buy now before he comes back and recants his statement, causing prices to rise again. Remember, every time Trump makes a statement about this war, it's going to manipulate the market.

      The entire world is turning on the US because of Israel. You guys need to make some immediate changes or the US will become a third world country. First Spain, then Greece. Now Taiwan and the Philippines are negotiating with China.

      In October 2024, The Economist stated that the US economy was "the envy of the world."

      Never forget that 77 million Americans voted for the nightmare we're going through. They chose this.

      The only way this madness will end is Congress steps in & remove Trump. Oil, gas & food prices are going up everyday to levels we've never seen before & he doesn't care because it doesn't effect him.

      And this is what Trump means when he says that we are making so much money and there's so much winning. He means for him and his rich oil buddies.

      Again Trump makes Statements on weekend so markets will be down on Monday allowing his buddies to buy cheap, then by end of week he will do something to drive them up,so his buddies can sell off. Research shows in March 15 minutes before he opened his mouth about war issue Hugh spike in oil purchases. Prices rise sell off happens his buddies get richer. Wake up people Trump has to pay back all those election contributions. Guess how he is doing it.

      Any excuse. Oh there was a dumpster fire in back of the maintenance shed. +25 cents a gallon. Dad used to point out that the price of gas goes up in quarters comes down in pennies and we’re all out of Pennie’s….

      Q
      Today, I give myself permission to be successful.
      And
      Sorrowful 😢 that long-time yacht partier Orban Victor lost the Magyar elections.
      I think that he should be proud he served 16 years the people! I think its great homage to the 🤴 👑 of the Magyars and those who RULED before him and are buried in
      Szekesfehervar.
      The city of crowned kings.
