Is Donald Trump playing chess while his critics play checkers? One economist begrudgingly seems to suggest that might be the case.

Gluskin Sheff’s David Rosenberg, who just last month asked if Trump was trying to lose the 2020 election with his tariffs, says the president’s recent moves might all be part of his grand plan to extend his stay in the White House.

Translation: “What if Trump actually knows what he’s doing? What if he’s a good president?? This could turn out to be a diabolical plot to get re-elected!!!”

...says the president’s recent moves might all be part of his grand plan to extend his stay in the White House...or maybe just to do what he thinks is best for the country.....

So, is President Trump that much smarter than previous Presidents or were they complicit in the economic rape of the American middle class? I think the answer is “both”.

Although I do think PDJT would like to have a 2nd term, nobody seems to get that the man chose to give up everything he was doing to make this country great again because of his love for the USA. That fact alone is why he will win the 2020 by a margin greater Ronaldo Maximus. MAGA!

Most of the comments at Market Watch are execrable. The level of TDS out there is troubling. It’s a mania.

Ha...I believe it. I try and stay away from leftist comment boards due to the utter lack of self-awareness & nonsense you often find. 10 minutes at Markert Watch was quite enough.

I work with leftists, but thankfully politics is not a major topic....mostly because they think everyone in the office is liberal.

Our great and wonderful president Donald J Trump has dozens of years dealing with the most brutal businessman in the entire world

These press idiots in politician morons are complete losers for him

Witness even president Xi in China getting his ass handed to him

Good news freepers ! we have 5 1/2 more years of this wonderful time in our history!

Yep - lots of them ex-spurts have to watch the market rebound while they’re bitching about what he does to the market....then they have to toss in all the “what ifs” and “could happens” crap because their words belie reality.
