When I said “We’re going to become so rich, you’re not gonna know where to spend all that money. I’m telling you—just watch!”, I didn’t mean you, I meant we, as in my family “we”, you are all so gullible!

I don’t care about your 401k or your social security or that you spent your entire adult life working for it. My Ponzi scheme meme coin made more than all of that and more in one day

The world is crumbling, and it’s all my fault. I think I’ll go play some golf.

Today, while the market collapsed and four soldiers who died on an exercise in Lithuania arrived at Dover, where was Donald Trump? Was he monitoring the markets? Was he there for the arrival of these heroes?

Nope: he was golfing, with the Saudis

The only relevant political point is that Republican members of Congress are all supporting these tariffs 100%. They could stop them at any moment. Each day is on them. Everyone with a messaging bullhorn needs to make that clear. They can pull the plug now or pay the price at the polls next year.

Has anyone looked at trading activity of this administration? With all the up and down of the market, directly correlated to on and off tariffs, you could easily see how greedy individuals that make the decisions could make a lot of money based on ‘insider’ knowledge of when decisions are made.

4 months ago, I was retiring at 65. 3 days ago, it might have been 66. Today feels like I’ll be pushing 70. It’s really hard to think about it any other way, and I’m not accounting for not getting what I put into social security. #beyondbewildered
