A leftwad is a leftwad first, before anything else.

If the choice is between advancing their evil agenda or making money, they will choose the agenda every time.

Gas is cheap, the other sectors of the economy are strong. The market will come back. JOb reports and unemployment is what people go off of.

They sure do. And they are much more interested in the long run fortunes they make by pursuing globalism and screwing America then the short-term profits of one year on the stock market. They are, and would, devastate the economy for the sole purpose of getting rid of Trump.

They are prepared to take short term losses, if they think that they can get long term advantages. That includes regaining their political clout and control, and achieving ideological goals.

Companies like Apple, Google, Facebook e.t.c. are willing to offend millions of customers in the short term to achieve their ideological goals.

I’ve made more money when the market goes down. Puts are cheap and they fly in price when the market crashes. I had one put on SPY that made over $1k just today. Those who know how make more money in market chaos and crashes than they do during run ups.
