Trump

Trump really must have done well in the Town Hall last night, otherwise the little guys on here would be chirping. The interviewer was an embarrassment.

Can anyone imagine Biden being interviewed like this? First, it would be disrespectful, as it was with President Trump. He would also be humiliated because he couldn’t answer any questions coherently. This is why he is protected press.

It's a Cult


The only logical explanation is MAGA is a full blown cult of personality.

Excerpt:

"Even attaching Trump’s name to an otherwise effective message had a tendency to invert the results, this source said. If a moderator said that the covid lockdowns destroyed small businesses and facilitated the largest upward wealth transfer in modern American history, seventy per cent of the Republicans surveyed would agree. But, if the moderator said that Trump’s covid lockdowns destroyed small businesses and facilitated the largest upward wealth transfer in modern American history, the source said, seventy per cent would disagree."

Trump and Netanyahu bringing peace once again to Middle East!

The "Moron Elected by Morons" and the sick Democrat party funded Iran and their terrorist proxies. President Trump and Netanyahu are
killing Islamic terrorists who are hell-bent on wiping Israel and the U.S off the map. You can't reason with these hate-filled anti-Semetic monsters-- history has proven this time and again. All these barbarians understand is fear of death and destruction, and that's what these two great leaders are giving to them.

Trump warned the Houthis to stop attacking cargo ships in the Red Sea. They apparantlt forgot that Trump was not the weak pieces-of-crap like Obama and Biden. Now they're being destroyed! Same for Hamas, Hezbollah and Iran!

Remember my wise words of wisdom-- the only good terrorist is a dead terrorist!

Trump's Economy

Bond yields on Gov't bonds are increasing in response to the Trump victory. This is pushing mortgage rates higher despite the Fed announcing a 25 bps rate cut today. Mortgage rates typically follow interest rates the Fed sets but it really tracks the bond yields. Those are increasing because Trump is expected to blindly slap tariffs everywhere which is inflationary. The cost gets passed to the consumer.

Wall Street is essentially pricing inflation increase due to a result of Trump's expected direct policy and actions. As a result, mortgage rates are increasing which in itself isn't good for people wanting to refinance to save money, or for homebuyers, builders and construction either.

If these tariffs are blindly applied everywhere, I would expect to see massive price hikes in food imported from Mexico, like avocados, tomatoes cauliflower & broccoli, onions, beans, pineapple, carrots, asparagus, garlic and much more.

Then there's the manufactured consumer grade crap form China, all of that will skyrocket in price. Even the "Made in the USA" stuff will go way up, because they use get the parts from China or process raw materials there.

The tariffs are speculatory because nothing has changed. But the mortgage rates are absolutely rising to highs right now.
