This isn't The Art of the Deal.
It's insider trading with a bad comb-over.
Step 1: Tank the Market, Scare the Non-Millionaires
Step 2: Let the Aristocrats Feast
Step 3: Flip, but say ‘Winning’
Step 4: Pretend None of This Ever Happened & Get Your Media Dregs To Do The Same
Rinse, Enrich, Repeat.

Of course the Democrats will be going to Houston to find and interview voters who were laid off , to ask them what their expectations of the new administration were and how they feel they are doing at the moment. And posting here and everywhere. Right ?
On Fox Business this morning, Chevron Chair and CEO Mike Wirth discusses all of the records that the company has broken last year.
"Record" production, record distributions to shareholders, etc...
Yet they're laying off 15%-20% of their workforce.
Vile.

After Nancy Mace's explosive speech on the House floor, she encouraged Americans to call a new "victim hotline" set up by her office.
But advocates and experts in her district are sounding the alarm: Do not call this a "hotline." In fact, they warn, it's best not to call it at all.

We are going to see political investigations and prosecutions.
The question is whether the public, the courts and the media will recognize and call them out as political. Will they stand up against them or will people stay silent and allow them to continue.

When you solve for the wrong problem, not only do you not get the solution, you can cause harm. The President wasted water that was being saved for farmers for a PR stunt.
This was harmful, ludicrous, and solved nothing.
