  1. TACO, when met with resolve (or a severe sell-off in the S&P, bonds, and dollars).

    Everyone else has figured it out by now, but this will leave the MAGA base even more angry and bewildered.

    1. MAGA will say he achieved the missile defense program even though that probably would have been given just thru asking. That’s how real friends (and allies) operate not by crazy person threats.

    2. Also, the Golden Dome is an impractical idea for a country the size of the USA and will never be built

  2. It’s funny how this administration both demands that we take Trump at his word and believe that he does what he says he’ll do (Venezuela), but also that we believe he is just joking (Greenland.)

    It’s been clear from Day 1 for those without TDS that he is flailing from one distraction to the next with no real plan to improve this country and because he’s surrounded himself with sycophants, they happily twist themselves into knots to defend him and then blame the media for hating him when they point out the inconsistencies.

    Can’t believe how much winning we’re doing!

  3. His comment on housing shows his indifference – equity in a home is only realized when the owner sells or dies (home equity loans aside). In the interim, property taxes and insurance costs increase. He’s out of touch.
