      Yes, he is to blame but the dumbasses who believe him over and over can’t get a pass either. He made up a fake deal just last week.
      Today the Dow goes up because he announced another “”deal”. He even threatened to “obliterate “Iran infrastructure just after he announced the fake deal number two.

      Democrats really need to start making it clear that one of the biggest weapons for Reconstruction 2028 is going to be civil forfeiture against the Trump crime family and anyone who did business with them.

      Yes, we can just take your stuff from the mouths of your children and put you in the timeout box for 100 consecutive life sentences if you break the rules. Behave and it won’t happen.

      SpaceX? Nationalize it under NASA.

      Palantir? Instantly dissolved.

      Who’s next? We don’t have to stop at tech bros.

      >Iran’s Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf called it: President Trump is using his war on Iran for blatant market manipulation.

      >“Heads-up: Pre-market so-called ‘news’ or ‘Truth’ is often just a setup for profit-taking. Basically, it’s a reverse indicator. Do the opposite: If they pump it, short it. If they dump it, go long,” Ghalibaf wrote on X Sunday afternoon. “See something tomorrow? You know the drill.”

      >Sure enough, Trump posted that “Great progress has been made” regarding a peace treaty with Iran at 7:26 a.m. on Monday, two hours before markets opened—and they responded accordingly.

      >The Kobeissi Letter documented how Ghalibaf—and Trump’s—announcements played out in the stock market. “At 4:12 PM ET on Sunday, Iran’s Speaker of the Parliament said pre-market news is a ‘reverse indicator’ and if they ‘dump’ the market, then ‘go long.’ At 6:00 PM ET, S&P 500 futures opened nearly -1% lower and fell just 30 points away from correction territory. By 11:00 PM ET, S&P 500 futures had reversed all losses and turned green,” the analysis noted. “Then, at 7:25 AM ET today, President Trump posted that ‘great progress’ is being made on Iran peace talks. Now, the S&P 500 is trading +100 points above its low seen just hours ago, adding +$900 billion in market cap. We are in the most unusual times in market history.”

      >Trump has also been trying to manipulate the market to drive down the price of oil, though it’s not exactly working. Last week, the S&P 500 saw a $3 trillion market cap swing in just 56 minutes after Trump announced he’d “POSTPONE ANY AND ALL MILITARY STRIKES” just hours before the market opened. Ghalibaf—a conservative who is now one of the highest-ranking leaders in Iran—just made the game clear to American investors.

      White House is saying negotiations are going well and that Iranian negotiators are “more reasonable” behind closed doors while refusing to say who they are talking to.

      Meanwhile Rubio is saying it’s not quite clear who and how decisions are being made in Iran.

      Can’t believe a single thing out of this administration and it’s fucking sad cuz you also can’t trust the Iranian government. And all of us Americans are flying blind along for the ride.

      I remember growing up people told me there were laws and stuff against this kind of thing. What a bunch of bull that all was.

      All the biggest investors are republican. If they happy market go up, if they sad market go down. Money is so fake.

      The fact that the markets still fall for this crap is rather infuriating.

      This is was the GOP has always been. Its just that the previous generation of GOP politicians were able to hide it with veiled racism, they didnt say the quiet part out loud. They always gave themselves deniable plausibility. Everyone knew they just hid it under the surface. Since 2016 they have been out in the open and the younger generation never got the memo

      Nothing is stopping him, so he’ll keep doing it. Just like everything else. How pathetically weak is this country!

      Wars have been started for all sorts of craven reasons, but is there an example in US history of a war so obviously started so the President and his cronies can financially profit off of it at the detriment of the entire world economy?

      I mean, it’s difficult to argue this has done anything but make the US strategic position militarily *worse*, without there being an obvious route to even a status quo level result.

      I had never before quite understood this:

      > In 897 AD, Pope Stephen VI had the nine-month-old corpse of his predecessor, Pope Formosus, exhumed, dressed in papal robes, and placed on a throne to stand trial for perjury and illegal assumption of the papacy. Known as the „Cadaver Synod“ (or Synodus Horrenda), this incident, where a deacon was appointed to speak for the rotting corpse, took place at the Basilica of St. John Lateran in Rome.

      Now, I have a complete understanding of why this would be done.

      Wars are a gold mine for Trump. Each jerk of the markets‘ chain makes him a billion or two.

      This is what disturbs me about the markets.

      Some „event“ occurs and professional traders — who ought to know better — react; like chicken with their heads cut off.

      And then all those algorithms kick in and magnify the effect (good or bad) of just a few hysterical investment „pros“ and day traders hiding in their parent’s basements.

      so much for my rant.

      Well, I guess his tweet didn’t work, because gas in my neighbor hood jumped from 3.89 this morning to 4.29 this afternoon.

      The fact that the markets can be played like this means we are in trouble. It’s all fake and the illusion that it matters is being destroyed. Faith in our systems is what gives them legitimacy and I don’t think we have any more faith in this shit.

      „…high crimes AND misdemeanors…“ – kick him out, lock him up. Republicans won’t blink at tRump’s sexual abuse of children but threaten the stability of their donor’s money? He’ll be lucky to make it to the end of the year.

      Trump is not negotiating with Iran, he’s negotiating with the Markets.
      This is what the beginning of a debacle looks like.
