Yes, there are people out there that are actually rooting for the economy to be destroyed so that they can overturn the results of the 2016 election and get the hated Trump out of office.

The truth is...even if the economy was to burst, we have no better man in the White House right now to deal with it.

They plan on crashing it to help get rid of Trump. Time is now to very publicly, in every way, tell them we know what they plan to do. Expose them now, so when and if they do plan this trick, the blame falls on deep state where it belongs.

They want civil war? They sure are asking for it.

Stock has not been sane nor correct for decades!

He must have gone to the play in Central Park and had a wet dream later that night.

The good news is that no one really (well, except maybe Zero Hedge) puts much ‘stock’ in Stockman.

Witch Pelosi stands over you with her wand. You close your eyes, click your ruby slippers three times, and say, “There’s no place like home”. You wake up with Auntie Cankles and Uncle Jeb smiling over you and you repeat to them, “There’s no place like home,” The Universe is right again.

He was on Fox Business News Election Night spreading his gloom and doom - the economy was going to crash, stock market is bad, too much debt, etc. None of what he said has come to pass, other than at Midnight saying the math was giving the presidency to Trump.

If that happens...the arse of a politician won't be worth a plugged nickel. There are many, many military and ex-military people who have vowed retribution for this sort of thing. Swift and bloody.

It’s interesting that stockman has become a spokesman for the left.

So, Dave...what if you’re wrong?

If you’re so confident in your ability to predict, then buck up and put your money where your mouth is. Say, you put up your entire life savings, and any other assets on this little bet.

If you’re wrong you can go live in section 8 housing, and live off Social Security.....Otherwise, Mr. Stockman STFU.

The market is crashing?

***************

Stockman has been repeatedly predicting a crash for many years now. You would think he might, by now, admit to being more than a little off on his predictions.

That said, when a correction does come along (for whatever reason) it will be a significant one and it wouldn’t take much to trigger a sell off. Market valuations right now are quite high across the board. A correction is about 10%; a crash is a decline of 20%, or more. Something in between would be a drop of over 3,000 points on the DOW.

Its been a long bull run and every one of them has had a correction over the past 40 years. Just saying.

“The bottom line is that the Swamp is so undrainable that it will end up making mincemeat of Donald Trump....” THAT kind of oral flatulence is the sort of thing that brings Divine Intervention. God WILL intervene for His man, Trump.

Great find. This tells all we need to know about this butt wipe:

Thought David Stockman’s name was familiar to me.

https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2012/08/how-david-stockman-became-democrats-favorite-reaganite/261121/

I remember him from 2012, when he basically campaigned for Obama. So he’s basically a liberal democrat.

I’m not hearing him say he is shorting the market. He’s probably long AMZN. LOL

Stockman’s Indian name = “Doesn’t Know When to Retire”

July, 2015: His candidacy will be over by August 1, 2015. Count on it.

If I remember correctly during the campaign Trump made statements wherein he was not a big fan of the Stock Market

>>>The market is crashing?

No...but it probably is going to crash...and crash hard. The GOPe and the dems are going to see to it. There is a debt ceiling to be dealt with this fall and there is the budget...with the wall. Both of which come at the same time and the threats of government shut-downs.

For all the excitement here NOW about how high the stock-market is...I am surprised that all the wisdom that was displayed here in the past about how the stock market is on a BUBBLE...built on phony money has gone out the window. Seems the wisdom of so many FReepers is only available during times when they are the opposition party.

So, yes, the stock market is going to crash. The fundamentals do not support it being this high...they didn't when Obama was president (which Freepers understood) and they don't now (which Freepers have suddenly forgotten).
