Buffett's a very curious case. I assume Democrat Buffett voted for Biden-Harris in 2020, despite Trump's policies undoubtedly helping Berkshire Hathaway. Is he voting for Harris, while his actions indicate he expects she'd be bad for business? You would think not, but as I said he's a curious case.

...despite Trump's policies undoubtedly helping Berkshire Hathaway

I respectfully disagree. Assuming Buffett's trains are still the main means of Canadian oil transport (blocking the keystone pipeline = money keeps going to Buffet).

Buffet throwing money down the sewer?

Better news cannot be found today.

Being rich does not equal being smart. Making money can be easier, but spending that money can be as dumb as funding Iran for terrorism. So, Buffet/Biden/Kamala, all terrorists by extension.

There are a lot of Democrat donor billionaires these days, even as the party pretends it hates billionaires. If Harris wins most of my investments should be fine though some will be in question. Buffet is a keeper in any case.

He’s big on abortion. Any amount of money and human suffering is worth it to continue the sacrifices to Molech.

Banking failure, probably between Nov and Mar. All this commercial property that banks are holding onto and unable to ‘dump’...count in car repossessions, home repossessions, and credit card problems. At least a hundred banks to beg FDIC for ‘help’.

Buffett is simply lining up to consume banks....after the gov’t covers the ‘cost’.

Buffet is brilliant and will make money no matter who is in office.

[Prince Caspian]

While Vice President Kamala Harris surges ahead in polls against her Republican rival Donald Trump...

Morning dose of gaslighting.

[SaxxonWoods]

No, almost all banks will be saved by lower interest rates. The ones that go broke won’t matter, it’s happened before and it goes with territory.

I stopped reading at “surges ahead.”

That's besides the point.

Spending money on crap, is still crappy. Nothing intelligent about buying crap, no matter how much money you make.

I fully expect CWII to kick off if they steal it again.

If you were filthy rich all your life (not just rich, but levels far far far above F/U money), and you were approaching your the back end of your time here, you would clearly recognize that POWER has much more allure to you than the number of digits that are at the bottom of your ledgers.

How much do those shipments actually add to Berkshire Hathaway's bottom line? Their biggest business remains insurance, not the railroad. And those oil shipments would be just a small percentage of the railroad's revenues.

And they have lots of other investments in a wide range of things, including some large manufacturing firms. So that is not a good explanation for why he'd vote Democrat.

Making that his number one priority would mean he's basically a nut. Which he might be.

It's still idiocy to throw your money down the shitter.

Making money and getting super-rich, does not equal high-intelligence. Case in point: Taylor Swift, Oprah.

He could short the market, but I don't believe he has ever done that. It doesn't seem to be his style. I could see Buffett shrewdly shifting his investments into businesses that Harris would be funneling money to, i.e. crony capitalism.

How many Kamala staffers does it take to screw in a light bulb? None, they use gaslights.
