But, but, but - he's against war / bombing / killing all those beautiful people....
Fair point.
Also, Jason Isaacs, British White Lotus actor, called out the Trump administration in a US tv interview a few days ago was a brave and welcome move. No doubt he will be labelled a failed and woke actor now.
He would have gotten away with it too if it weren't for those meddling foreigners.
Walmart's CEO makes admission about Trump's tariffs
(Click on MSN)
Walmart has admitted it will be badly hit by tariffs, but says it aims to keep prices lower than rivals and emerge from the challenging period with more customers. Due to its size, CEO Doug McMillon said the company remains in a position to 'play offense,' and that tariffs may push it to 'invest in price.' And finance chief John David Rainey emphasized that Walmart sees an opportunity to accelerate market share gains by offering better pricing, leaning into the current economic climate.

Have you noticed the water pressure lately? Terrible. Just terrible. You turn on the shower, and it’s like a little drizzle. A pathetic little trickle. You can’t wash anything. And you know why?
Because of Obama. Because of the radical left. It’s a leftist, communist shower control agenda. They don’t want you clean. Very secret. Very sneaky. Funded by Chaina, probably.
I looked into it. I said, ‘Why is the water not coming out?’ They told me it was because of regulations. Ridiculous regulations. I said, ‘Nope, we’re fixing that. We’re bringing back the pressure. We’re bringing back the POWER.’ People will thank me, say, ‘Sir, I haven’t had a shower like that in years. My hair’s never looked better.’ And you know I have great hair, everybody says so.
I love showers. I love water. I love washing my tremendous, world-class hair in a powerful, beautiful cascade of American freedom.
We’re gonna Make Showers Great Again. Big water. Strong water. Patriotic water. Showers the way God intended, none of this weak, woke misting. We’re going full blast, baby.

. . . And now we are told that they were to victims all along. It's incredible.
At times like this we can turn to the words of the great Irish playwright, George Bernard Shaw:
"The 100% American is 99% idiot"
Absolutely staggering, isn't it? What's more, his acolytes mindlessly lap it up

Just utter scum. Playing with the economy to enrich themselves. If a government is not looking to tackle inequality I cannot take it seriously.

Tackle it? They're actively working toward making it worse.
Maybe the "average" Americans will notice it now? Their investment portfolio was decimated in order to enrich the richest people. To be fair to Trump, he's played an absolute blinder here and all his mates have made crazy money without doing anything, or risking anything. Bravo.

They added this today?
But is this added to where they were before the crash or did it crash and then go up a bit?

I know. I was referring to our government who do not even acknowledge it is a problem.

the same group were reported down £550bn on Tuesday. average portfolio that didn't sell past few days is in the same boat, still down a lot on paper. to be sure there is some money made around the fringes, spikes in market and option volume observed 10-20 min before the yesturday pivot, not the conspriacy some want to make. it's just bad policy and decsion making at it's root. remember Trump is trying to say how great past day market response was, dont go along!
