The economic indicators do not look good. So Trump is attacking the Fed.
This is starting to feel very 2008 now. I don't know if anyone else got hit this way but, when the grifter-induced crash came at the end of the last decade, it seemed like I woke up one morning and the entire economic structure of the world had vanished in smoke and mist. Nobody I knew really knew what had happened. (Collateralized debt obligations? Credit default swaps? Derivatives? Don't they sell those in Whole Foods in the pills and powders aisle?)
As it happens, it didn't become entirely clear until the whole thing was explained to me by this woman who taught at Harvard Law School. She managed to make things clear even to my math-resistant brain. Anyway, over the last couple of days, I'm starting to feel like someone's kicked out a couple of critical Jenga pieces again.

Electing (R) creatures to "fix" the economy is like voting hiring Genghis Khan to fix your barbarian problems.

Not a good time for the Fed to lower interest rate.
Abortion rights dogma can obscure human reason & harden the human heart so much that the same person who feels
empathy for animal suffering can lack compassion for unborn children who experience lethal violence and excruciating
pain in abortion.
Unborn animals are protected in their nesting places, humans are not. To abort something is to end something
which has begun. To abort life is to end it.

The irony and SAD PATHETIC part of this is that a if he used a COIN TOSS for EACH decision he made, it would end at least end up in a 50/50 chance of getting SOME THINGS RIGHT!

Hiring Trump to reduce the national debt is something like hiring an unqualified racist gluttonous narcissistic serial sex offending gameshow host mob boss con artist to reduce the national debt
