It would be kind of hilarious if they stopped everyone out and launched it

That's exactly what I would expect her to say. It's all about framing blame.

DONALD PUMP YOU MADMAN, BACK AT IT AGAIN

Sly political move. Hope it holds the market.

I think the entire house and senate needs to turn over to create a fresh perspective. I'm also now strongly in favor of term limits.

McFly - can't look past it? Tic Tock and Larew are both conservative. I love reading OA's tweets as well.

Love Larew. Even skaushi is conservative. Had to dump cohodes. Resisting a few more.

LOL here's a smart permabear...

When I saw 18 new posts at this hour I feared the worst. What a relief.

Frankly, I don't give a damn

Really? Cohodes is a great follow. I just ignore the politics.

Oh. I'm aware. Was just staring the obvious really

Ackman makes a valid point. I know he's a hedge fund guy, but if they agree on the 1.6T, why not do it and then bicker over the rest later

Makes way to much sense. Won't happen.

Well this has been an interesting read. Been away since noon and now at hospital thanks to sudden onset pre-eclampsia. I'm not even gonna look at my portfolio. Only saving grace is that I had exited all options plays last week except for the SPXS hedge, so technically it shouldn't be too terribly bad...

Each year flying becomes a worse experience. Should just let those airlines go bankrupt and start over, Buffett figured just as much.

Those tweets are good...I think Pelosi and Schumer miss the good ole days when 3 networks had a monopoly on informing the public.

Last week Blackrock was talking about how congress would not pass stimulus before election and Fed still has tons of tools and debt runway to buy assets etc.

Gotta be careful with the FinTwit stuff and take with a grain of salt. There's a balance there... find the ones who make you money... Redler, Stewie, Ripster come to mind. The best and most consistent ones seem to avoid the politics talk and don't let their political driven emotions affect their trading/investing decisions. Very few like OA can express strong political opinions while also not letting it affect trading emotions.

Redler seems to have the best approach to it imo. He follows and acknowledges it and how it all can affect the markets, but he manages to mostly stay out of it and middle of the road through objectivity. Maybe I just relate to him since I mostly hate politics in general even though I have my pretty strong views.

Like McFly and others, I've had to unfollow or mute a few people recently because it was obvious their extreme lib views and hatred of Trump were driving their market and trading analysis.... obviously rooting for the bear case and using politics as their only motivation.

But there's a balance as well..... to stay objective, you have to acknowledge the other side's opinion and consider it to some degree. There's always the other side of the trade, and they are just as convinced they're doing it right too. I'm still following Cohodes because he's not off the rails (yet), and he's also mega bullish on OSTK and CWH so I guess we have that in common even though he's a Raiders fan....

TLDR... politics talk mostly sucks & the 2 sides will NEVER agree on anything except that BoJo sucks, both sides love money, let's get back to trading talk...
