Wall Street has been riding a historic roller coaster the past few months due to President Donald Trump’s on-again, off-again tariff threats. Now, investors are learning to take his words with a grain of salt — and a bit of salsa, too.

    “I chicken out? Oh, I’ve never heard that. You mean because I reduced China from 145% that I set down to 100 and then to another number?”

    This fucking guy

    “another number”

    Ooh! I think we just found another way to poke the dumbass!

    “Don’t ever say what you said,” Trump told the reporter, calling it “the nastiest question.”

    One fucking journalist should have the spine to respond to the “naaasty question” rants this idiot keeps going off on. It’s called scrutiny. If you don’t want nasty questions, go home.

        So what we won’t be getting direct access to Trump’s asshole of a mouth 24-7? Trump needs the spotlight more than we do. If the media networks actually collaborate to ensure journalistic standards, what’s he going to do? Lose the coverage? Media need to do they fucking job or US democracy is done.

          He’ll just have the clowns from Fox and OANN interview him. Basically state run media.

            He couldn’t last a blackout from major media for a day because his RATINGS would drop. It’s Trump. Without TV he’s nothing.

    One thing he’s at least consistent on, is calling things “nasty” when they get to him personally.

    ‘Best day since Oct 2008’ is a great way to say that it recovered after a huge crash that left it lower than before but we want good optics.

If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
