Small businesses did the right thing and paid workers during the pandemic in return for a tax credit.Now, Congress is thinking of backtracking on that promise and retroactively eliminating the tax credit. 😡This is wrong! #SaveSmallBusinesses

Is what I call a “wish-based” thinker. Rather than see reality (which is that most kids are going to college because they don’t want to work in a factory), he makes up a fairy tale.

Lutnick: "It's time to train people not to do the jobs of the past, but to do the great jobs of the future. This is the new model where you work in these kinds of plants for the rest of your life and your kids work here and your grandkids work here. We let the auto plants go overseas."

TS LOMBARD: “.. Judging from the drop in the March JOLTS job openings data and the fall-off in Conference Board consumer confidence, .. firms have begun to shut down hiring. One can only presume capex is being cut .. All of which adds up to a negative Q2 and a potentially worse Q3 ..”

Unpopular

Let's wake up. He's REALLY unpopular for this early in a term or really ever. President's this unpopular are already losing. Power becomes harder to assert when your power is fading.

Says a lot about the nature of LLMs when an AI creator can purposely shift the tool's training and output to the political Right. They told us AI would transcend politics, but it's absolutely adjustable in this way, and so far every example I've seen of that process is a move to appease Rightists.

At this point, you can’t convince me they aren’t manipulating the market.As soon as the indexes started peaking today, the White House started talking about tariffs on China, and everything is in the red again.

That’s such a good point. I noticed it also. Trump is definitely not above manipulating the stock market, he’s a criminal and a thug. I’m sure they are placing trades on either side of the market. Short or long. He’s making many many millions on this.
