that’s right lutnick, keep people guessing as the world dumps us bonds. this is it, people: the world’s richest economic powerhouse is tearing itself apart to satisfy the fantasies of a hate-filled dotard. the collapse of the us is the most spectacular self immolation in history.

That bond situation is crazy. The US is standing on the precipice and the Trump administration doesn't even realize it.

You could say that about almost anything. They’re stunningly stupid people.

[–] Bustedknuckles@lemmy.world 25 points 2 months ago

Absolutely. It makes me crazy that people can't imagine what the consequences of American isolation will be. We built this position and lifestyle over generations, and every single other administration including his was smart enough not to fuck with it

That would sum it up nicely; however, It'd be unfair to not mention the 77 million Americans that voted for this clown, the 90 million people who neglected their right & responsibility to vote, and the 75 million americans who voted against him.

Voting matters...until it doesn't.

Funny how both ancient rome and modern US use lead in their water supply systems

[–] MuskyMelon@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Really??? Is that intentional?

[–] FiskFisk33@startrek.website 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I'm not sure what you mean with intentional, but intentional as in they have built pipes out of lead, yes.

That's what I meant... Fricking-A

I mean, it’d have to be pretty impressively fucked up to outdo Brexit. So far, it is!

Stable rules and frameworks are so 2000-and-late, markets love a little spice!
