#1 During the "Weekend at Bernie's" presidency, the leftist media pretended not to know what was going on with the economy, and the right *still* believed America is the greatest nation on earth. Stocks remained strong, not because anyone believed in *that* joke of an administration, but because we still believed in our nation.

Today, half of our nation (still) doesn't believe in anything, and that half caused the bumpiness we've endured.

By June, the market will be roaring...and the left will be whining about mean tweets or something else similarly unimportant.

Some of the more Liberal MSM talking heads were quick to claim the cited #'s were suspect or rigged by various wealthy.

I guess they must shoot down any Actual GOOD NEWS quickly. Because their mission is simple:

"Orange Man is Bad".

#4 It's no surprise that companies like Hewlett-Packard that outsourced all of their manufacturing to China are jolted by the tariffs. I can't say that I have any sympathy for them although it is a bummer for people with 401ks who had to rely on fund managers to make investment decisions. Dump those HP stocks and invest in America.

#5 Watching the Eat The Rich! and Free Luigi! people get really upset at that market dip was a hoot. Almost as much entertainment the next day because they thought they had an own when their firmware was literally out of date 12 hours after downloading.

The Trough Kin tried screaming Market Manipulation to get the furries all fired up, but I think one of their content creators of moderate talent pulled the plug on that can of worms.
