Sounds reasonable to me.

The republican party is the racist and mean spirited party but not their constituents and the democratic party is the compassionate party but their constituents are intolerant looters that whinged and accosted people for 4 years because Trump was elected as the president.

Now that the dems are back in the white house, the republicans are mean spirited.

Gotcha!

Take note that those who stormed the Capitol building are being tried and charged as individual citizens. It is not the GOP that is taking the blame.

The same goes for every other violent rally that has taken place in the last four years, regardless of the rally’s political leaning.

So neither political party is violent… it is some citizens that are violent and no doubt dealt with by the law.

It’s no different to football… just because a bunch of APOEL supporters as an example, have wrecked a car after a match, doesn’t mean that the club itself is responsible and thus a violent club!

So what’s with all the sulking? :?


Here you are again with insinuations about my feelings.

I didn’t insinuate anything… I responded to what you typed.

If you’d rather I ignore your posts and let others respond to them… ask and you shall receive.

I have no problem with that.

Trump fans were convinced that their terrestrial God had the intellect to tackle excruciatingly complex global markets, and come out on top! :?

But modern international trade relationships are so interdependent, so interwoven, that it’s almost impossible to move against a trading partner without also hurting yourself.

Here’s the latest Trump disaster as an example…

What you talking about GR,

Prior to the corona virus, the US economy was on a strong footing.

Unemployment continued to decrease, borrowing rates were at bargain basement prices and the economy was being propelled by healthy consumer spending.

This reflected in a strong average price for the US Dollar throughout his term, relative to the average price of the US dollar under the previous incumbents term. <---that is 90% of what you need to know to navigate global markets.

Now, I understand that some of you are fanatics of the democrat party, and your trump derangement syndrom is off the charts but he wanted to clean up "the mess"..

Now, the general populace have voted back in to office those folks that where part of "the mess" that always over promise and under deliver. So America will get the same old, same old.

- rising debt,
- more foreign adventures
- more political correctness,
- more unemployment,
- more lies from the media,

I keep hearing about trumps enablers pulling their money out, but the moment Biden was announced as the next president, the USD started tanking and it hasnt looked back since. :roll:

Dont listen to that crap in those articles,

They are fake news.... :lol:

I wouldnt ever recommend that GR.

Now, many will say that Trump might be lacking in decorum but dont let that distract you away from what he was actually trying to do and what he did achieve, when it comes to the US economy.

For example,

African Americans experienced the lowest unemployment rate under his watch.
African American home ownership ticked up during his term.

I dont think African Americans or the economy in general will do any better under Biden. Did they under Obama? No, and Biden is cut from the same cloth.

Max, the USD has been tanking for the past one year by about 10% against most strong currencies like the Swiss Franc and the Euro, way before the election of Biden couple of months ago. :wink:

that was corona virus induced,

it was heading towards multi year highs before the pandemic hit.

Biden will put the final nail in the coffin through the duration of his term.

The US economy is not looking good at the moment but I wouldnt blame Trump for that.

Some media are just spinning it, trying to kick the man while he is down.

I don’t think I wrote anything against Trump the first 3 years of his presidency despite not being happy him becoming the president. I didn’t even vote in 2016 because I was in Australia at the time. His handling of COVID-19 changed everything along with belittling John McCain, a dead American hero. Then his belittling of dead soldiers as “losers”, calling African nations as “shit holes” and being total ignorant and stupid about face masks, bleach taken internally, fucking the YPG Kurs in Syria and on and on. Then again a month before the elections he started planting his election fraud seeds in the event he would lose, then to be put in action after he lost by being a total cunt leading up-to the events which took place last week at the Capitol building. All the fuck ups Trump has been accused off was self inflicted by Trump. Others just gave him a hand to bury himself for his stupidity and being a dickhead. That’s just politics.
