Hmmm? After the swamp takes Trump out, what do you suppose the people will do to the swamp?

>> David seems to get everything wrong in the recent past <<

Maybe Stockman never got over Pres. Reagan’s talk about taking Stockman “to the woodshed.”

(And it seems that he’s been preaching gloom and doom ever since.)

If I recall, Stockman is a hamburger short of a Happy Meal!

CW 2.0 looking all but inevitable at this point.

Unfortunately, I think you're correct!

I will predict that President Trump will still be here in February 2018.

still trying to figure out what mechanism removes a sitting president based on a stock market plunge; he left that part out...

as for Trump, he completes his first term; then we’ll see if he wants another when he’s pushing 75...

If the market crashes, the President would need to pivot to the FDR approach--but ideologically from the opposite direction--of making fatherly media addresses ("fireside chats")--to reassure the people. He has the ability, God Willing, he will see and seize the opportunity.

As in the election, last fall, America, truly, would be at stake.

In the meanwhile, a few suggestions as to how the rest of us could be of help.

The only thing that pumped up the market for the last 7 years is the Fed pumping money and keeping low interest rates. All of a sudden, when Trump was elected, they decide to raise the rates. But right now I think k the market is rising more because of business and consumer confidence. If congress would just pass tax reform it would be great, which is why I think they are not doing it. The swamp would rather cause economic havoc if it means tripping up Trump.

the stock market crashed during the Reagan years, and it wasn’t his fault. Why would it be Trump’s fault?

Stockman is the poster child for your typical pompous @ss.

You have to be pretty wacked out to take all-time market highs and twist them into a negative.

The entrenchment of the corrupt--both ethically & ideologically--requires a multi-part remedy. But however else we precede, we have to have a sense of the tactics of gradual persuasion, of changing the dialogue over the flawed perceptions of the "politically correct" mantra, behind which so many of the scoundrels have managed to hide, even as they betray principle, heritage & the mandates of our Constitutional Republic.

Our President is fighting the good fight. We need each of us to back him in our own circles.

Stockman has stocked up on tinfoil hats. He’s a maroon. And he’s wrong.

Trump rocks.

Stockman is like the guys at Zero Hedge. They have predicted 20 of the last 3 crashes.

Left fascists have turned to totalitarianism wet dreams for their fulfillment since reality offers no stimuli.

No way! I can't believe it! {/s}

Look, this entire anti-Trump campaign is *disinformation*. It's MK Ultra, Mockingbird, color revolution, the whole bag of deep state tricks being deployed domestically. It includes not just the MSM, but also placed concern trolls in visible social forums like FR.

It's a carefully crafted bit of 'legal' insurrection that's being utilized because the many criminals will hang if they are brought to justice. They must fight; they have no choice. But they can't fight in the open, because that also condemns them outright.

So, they are forced to play shadow games. Tell me, when an opponent/adversary has only one option, one pathway open, are they strong or are the weak? They are weak - tremendously so.

The strong have multiple avenues open to them, with numerous staged fall back positions. What does Trump hold? Why, all the cards. IOW, Trump has the strongest position.

Stockman turned a very short gig at the Reagan White House from which he was fired because he was wrong about supply side economics into a lifelong pursuit of being wrong and getting paid for it.
