Trump presidency predictions

Note that marrying well doesn’t mean marrying someone who you think might please your family. Ignore race and class, go with someone who you love, are compatible with, and is a decent human being.

Speaking of Trump… I was chuckling at his comment when he saw the pricetag for Air Force One…

“Boeing is building a brand new 747 Air Force One for future presidents, but costs are out of control, more than $4 billion. Cancel order!”

Lol…

Ah yes…That pretty much sums up the conudrum of products for american consumers….

1. Either the american product is going to be more expensive (sometimes considerably more) and alienate some potential customers, no matter how patriotic they claim they are

or

2. The product from the american company is not going to be completely made in america

or

3. The product from the american company is not going to be completely made with american labor

or

4. The product made in america sold at a cheap cost will need a government subsidy

or

5. The company that made the product in america with american labor, sold at a cheap cost, without a government subsidy, will go out of business.

I predict trump will continue to create his own alternate reality (denying, for instance, anything the CIA or any other agency says that he doesn’t like), and that his idiot followers will believe that his “reality” is actual reality.

It’s time to come to terms with the reality. Might as well try to profit off of it. At the end of 4 years populists probably won’t be better off. But you certainly can be.

Time to start thinking for yourself and your family.

Don’t fall down..

Just think of this in terms of third person narrative. This is of comic proportions.

We will settle somewhere in the .middle one of these days….

Just look at how BrExit is going. Talk about buyers remorse. They are already trying to redefine what NO means…like it doesn’t necessarily mean “leaving the single market”

I’m definitely down with trying to profit. The effect that trump’s erraticness, poor diplomacy, weak cabinet, incompetence, etc. will have on any particular investment seems hard to predict, though.

I’m open to suggestions.

If there was a “bet against the job prospects/real wages of working- and lower-middle-class Americans” investment, I’d put some money in that.

pvt prisons stock?

[Coronita]

Sorry zk.

I don’t give financial advice anymore I’ve learned my lesson. And the worst thing that could possibly happen is that people I like actually listen to what I have to say and get screwed over for doing it.

Ping rich or some folks that know what they are doing.

[zk]

I hear ya, man.

[Coronita]

Lol. Trump is complaining again that something made in the US costs too much…

F35 joint strike fighter.

I sort of agree with him on this one.

[Anonymous]

Of course the F-35 ridiculously over budget.

But kill the program and he kills far more jobs than he “saved” with the Carrier “deal.”

Middle class welfare is a only good thing when it’s his idea.

Make inflation great again. Can we see the late 70s again? Damn, it would be my dreams come true.

[spdrun]

You mean you want 10%+ interest rates on 30-year mortgages? LOL.

Remember that housing prices aren’t included in core inflation.
