Despite all Jim's claims, I won't be happy if the Dow reaches 14K but it certainly looks like Trump*'s incompetence, lies, team of yes men and his son-in law will get us there.

You would think that Trump* would learn that Wall St won’t keep buying tickets to his show.
But real coordinated fiscal policy, monetary policy & being completely transparent about the public health emergency would be very well received.

But Trump* is banking on a miracle, latest episode to be aired this afternoon.

A 3:30 p.m. White House briefing sets up a repeat of this from Friday, where the positive stuff all comes before the closing bell and then things go off the rails.

Remarkable how quickly Trump* has become basically irrelevant to the crisis. Everyone recognizes he doesn’t have a clue, is not up to the job, and can’t be looked to for leadership or guidance.

A complete and utter failure of Job #1 for a president.

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?
