      I was just questioning, what if he was a seer and was tweeting stuff from the future he would then create.

        Would be wild if we discovered his manic dementia rants were actually just psychic visions of the future.

      Is reverse psychic a marketable job title? 🤔

    Stock market indeces, like GDP, are a horrible way to measure success of a nation, so don’t take this as support of the pedophile rapist Donald Trump - but the stock market is doing fine. The 5% drop it had last week comes at the end of a whole year of constant growth, and even now the Dow is still 13% up from this time last year.

    Making an overly big deal of short term dips only feeds into the myth that the stock market is a valid measure of a president’s ability. If you blame Trump for the crash it keeps the door open for people to praise him for its record highs. Don’t play their game.

    What was even going on at the time that made him think WW3? Ukraine had been going on a while and the fighting in Gaza would never lead to WW3.

      Elections were upcoming, he was just stoking panic. His “tweets” are always disjointed babble with little relation to the ongoing political matters.

      Don’t waste your time attempting to connect his ramblings with any parts of reality. You won’t find any. He knows he can just open the shitvalve and let it spout, because his followers aren’t interested in reality or facts, they just want their own moronic and hateful feelings confirmed by him.

      Yeah, the other points aren’t looking better either, but the WW3 thing feels particularly wild, because you can at least explain the other points by him being even more incompetent of a leader. Shit happens, I guess.

      But the WW3 thing was 100% avoidable, no matter how incompetent he is. If he would’ve wanted to avoid it, like his post implies, then he would have.

      WW3 has been going for years now. They’re just not rushing it. That’s how the previous ones failed.
