    I bought the dip once, years ago. Made like, I donno. Couple hundred bucks. Sold all my crypto at the same time. That was cumulative with the other thing. Made a couple hundred bucks.

    Well you are that's cause they developed a cunning male brain at birth, and now with hormones they also have a crafty female brain. Having two brains is an unfair advantage over the poor cis men and women who only have one brain.

    The American legal system will be unable and/or unwilling to deal with it. Best chance is to send HIM to El Salvador if he ever relinquishes the office.

    This should be considered an act of war by...everyone, really. Everyone should pull their stuff out of the US market, be they ordinary Americans, Norweigian oil bonds, or German gold.

    Trump will pull this shit again, he has a pattern of pulling the rug, and will keep doing so long after there is no more rug.

    The only reason he reversed course is because the bond market was shitting the bed. If no one was buying our shitty bonds, then they couldn't issue the debt to pay for the massive tax cuts for the rich they're about to pass. The insider trading wasn't supposed to start until the market bottomed, they will absolutely try this same play again in three months.

    100%, its incredibly obvious.

    No, I was watching the bond market. The bond market is very tricky. I was watching it, but if you look at it now, it’s — it’s beautiful. The bond market right now is beautiful. But, yeah, I saw last night where people were getting a little queasy.”

    Hard to believe these are US Presidential quotes. Sounds more like some teenage barista smoking pot.

    He has like 30 something felonies and openly admitted to rigging the voting computers. The man could commit murder on stage and still somehow continue being president.

    100% he is making bank off this. So are his buddies. What DOGE was all about, setting up the US Gov't to be fleeced as a cash cow for the crime family. We need these criminals removed and full security audit on our entire gov't computer system. Every US citizen is currently at risk due to negligence but these fools. That doesn't even cover the extensive list of civil rights violations and oh...you know, constitution violations. But it matters not unless the are actual consequences. But money makes those go away.

    Yeah, no shit. His first term was 100% him playing golf and using the treasury as his personal piggy bank, why the fuck would we expect anything different this time around? Wake me up when someone actually does something about it.

    I've been saying this all along. Not just about this time, but he has pulled off a similar trade scare every month since he took office, with the same result - he announces tariffs, the market tanks, he rattles his sabre a bit, then pauses the tariffs, and the market rises again.

    This has been the third, and biggest one, probably because he needed to make it a big one as he cried wolf for a third time. Which means the next time he does it, it will have to be even bigger.

    Its clearly market manipulation, of a type that only president could do, but only if he were corrupt enough.

    There was definitely a rumor that caused a market spike two days ago until the white house immediately called it "fake news" which the media took at Trump's word as they always so gullibly do. Well as it turns, out, this "fake news" got the duration of the pause right to the exact number of days.

    Now everyone seems to be pretending they don't remember that this happened just two days ago and I just don't get it. Shouldn't somebody be asking why some random people on Twitter seemed to know Trump's plans in advance?

    I mean it's not like he went on Truth Social shortly before he announced the pause and told people it was a good time to buy stocks or anything... right?

    And? Who’s going to do anything about it? The stupidest people in this country gave a con man unilateral power to do anything he wants, what did they expect?

    You know he'll never face charges tho, right? I mean SCOTUS essentially gave him carte blanche to do anything he wants, whenever he wants to whomever he wants, no questions asked.

    Is it 125% for China and 10% for everyone else currently?... for 90 days?

    Or is it 10℅ across the board for 90 days?

    I'll wait for his next tweet to make all my speculation pointless. Fuck this guy.
