Crashes the stock market then gives his buddies the heads up to buy stock before halting the tariffs for 90 days. Absolute shambles of a person.

This thread has been very quiet this week.

All the amazing things he’s doing you’d think his supporters would be celebrating.

There will be another drop, it's inevitable the way things are going. Will take a long time for the markets to stabilise.

Something has gotta give with Trump, i think it will eventually. Just need to ride out the storm.

That said, im seriously considering pulling some of my money out of crypto while it's back up. Dunno yet, we'll see.

Yes he dropped it and then rebounded it deliberately for profit; it's what he's been doing since January. It's called a "pump and dump", it's not a new concept.

Its just not usually done at global scale by the POTUS.

There’s been no responses in the week before The Sexual Predator bailed on his own stupidity.

Crawling out the woodwork now to claim victory like their leader.

He literally said something like "now would be a good time to buy" on his "truth social" and then announced the 90 day pause causing a stocks surge. He avoids it being technically insider trading because he dropped the "buy" tip publicly.

He'll tank them again in 90 days. Watch his stupid somed and make some money I say, it's the only silver lining.

He's doing it on purpose. Pull it while you're up and put it straight back in as soon as he announces another round of tariffs and dumps the market again (90 days). That's what Trump and his new crypto/stock bro pals are doing.

That said: I think you're right, something had to give, I think his pump'n'dump game has a limited lifespan before the markets start seeing it as a predictable pattern and adapt.

Crypto is in a weird spot atm, Crypto casinos (which aren't exactly new) are starting to make huge waves in the bonkers crypto market, and helping govern fluctuation. They're aggressively recruiting the young and encouraging them to gamble as if it's "challenge" and "cool" like in actual video gaming (bit like the crates and packs gambling wrapped up as something else, but 100% gambling aimed solely at kids to get them hooked early).

They are so incredibly shady too, sponsoring streamers who constantly lose, smash things up, and go into total meltdown after losing, then feinning for another "reload" (more money to gamble with), which these "sponsors" happily provide!

I've only really been into crypto for the past 2 years, at best, such a volatile market, but a much safer gamble than sports betting (which i used to do on a daily basis).

I have taken some out tbh, because you're right, Trump is fcking everything up, and is only interested in lining the pockets of his cronies. And yeah, crypto is a "bros" type thing, if that makes sense. A lot of tech savvy bros in their early 20's are a huge demo of the market too (not all Trump supporters mind, im in a few crypto discord servers, and loads of these "bros" are massively against Trump).

The crypto market mirrors the stock market for the most part, and the fact an iphone (with current tariffs in place) could cost $3000 in the US now, or that a new car could potentially add another $10000 to the sale price through these tariffs is very scary indeed.

Crazy times we're living in right now.
