The Donald Trump, Illegal Alien, Foreigner, Immigrant Bitch and Moan Thread

I usually like to buy when fear hits but I think the markets are still too high, so I’ll wait a while longer, maybe when Germany leaves the EU. If they don’t, then they will get stuck propping up Greece.

Can California leave the US so they’re not stuck propping up Mississippi and Oklahoma?

No. CA would rather force their social/progressive vision of the way things should be on Mississippi and Oklahoma. It’s all about power.

There is a California National Party forming.

[quote=equalizer]zk,

Betting markets have Hillary at 1:3 odds, Trump at 3:1 odds. After this vote, that 3:1 seems like a good insurance policy. Drink up![/quote]

I think Trump is an underdog, but more of a 3:2 underdog. Hillary is not a 1:3 favorite right now.

[quote=flu]It will be interesting to see how today unfolds…I doesn’t look that bad in the U.S. markets.

Well, I can’t stay glued to the monitor today because I’m off to pick up some legoland passes….Going to take today off with the kid and try out the waterpark there and a few other things ….Nice relaxing start of a relaxing weekend. It’s probably the first time in a long time when the market tanks I’m not too concerned about it.

Have a nice weekend folks.[/quote]

It is a very nice day for legoland today. I dropped my wife and kids there this morning. I don’t think there is going to be a lot of policy responses to this, so market could drop further purely because it was way too high to begin with.

It doesn’t look like Yellen will do anything now for the rest of the year, she might as well go to legoland too.

I wouldn’t be so sure of that. The fed will remain data dependent. 30 days from now this could be no more than a blip. The longer the fed waits, the fewer options they have in the long term. Sept we could see another bump, even if the economy is still limping along. .25 to .50 basis points just isn’t going to change anything. They need to get to 2% to have any flexibility at all.

Saddest part of that is that fiscal policy is always going to be more effective than monetary policy during a slow down.

This what happens when news outlets like the Sun enable the pitchfork peasants.

And even in the face of recession and historically low rates, certain folks will never support fiscal policies for fear of hyper inflation!

And Trump wouldn’t be where he is without Fox et.al. encouraging America’s pitchfork peasants.

British millenials are ticked off about the “leave” vote, but not enough of them voted, and they could’ve made the difference.

Let’s hope American millenials learn a lesson from that and remember it come November.

Absolutely, if you look at the map you see that cosmopolitan areas voted to stay.
I’m thinking that turnout was stronger on the side of the Brexiters because of the recent election of the Muslim mayor of London

Scottish Borders is as cosmopolitan as Northumberland. You could just as easily argue Catholics and Muslims voting in, Protestants voting out.
Either way, a finger to the ruling class is likely preferred to chopped heads, by plebs and patricians alike.

“British millenials are ticked off”

I am not sure that is not just the media talking for them like they do here saying they want a condo and bike to work when they really want a house in the suburbs and a BMW.

I think they are. I think they googled “what’s the EU?” this morning and realized that they should have been paying attention.

The conservatives are losing control of their bases.
The business elites are now losing money because they used and enabled the pitchfork peasants.
