#DonTheCon's Treasury Sec Scott #Bessent, said on #ThisWeek that the #StockMarket has recovered nearly all of its losses after the Market plunge in early April, and "The Media called it the worst Market plunge in 100 years. But just 3 weeks later, the Market has recovered almost all of those [self-inflicted] loses, and I never hear the Media calling this The Greatest Recovery in history."
The #DOW didn't recover BECAUSE of his polices, but b/c he WALKED THEM BACK! #Gaslight
The only piece Michael MAY BE missing (it may well be included behind the paywall) that could convert the "conspiracy theory of kleptocracy," as he puts it, into what I eight years ago termed "the 21st Century COMINTERN," is at least strongly implied in the namesake he took for his new "razor."
Because the global #OligarchInChief isn't #DonTheCon.
It's #VladTheInvader.
And let's call his grand project the KLEPTOCRAT International. Because there sure as hell ain't anything Communist about it. It doesn't get more Capitalist-Without-a-Conscience than this.

Of course virtually every damning statement in this article is equally (or more) true of #DonTheCon--and #JorgeDiablos didn't order a coup to evade the consequences of his actions--but HE gets a second chance to crash the economy, burn the Constitution, and build his #TurdReich as POTUS....
@MelissaBearTrix
It is not #DonTheCon I want to see dead. It is all the greedy psychos that helped him get elected that need to die.
Our adjudicated rapist #PredatorInChief #DonTheCon[vict] really, REALLY hates women....

@VeroniqueB99 the only priority is tax cuts for super rich. Oh, and kickback to the grifter in chief. The little orange man is running a long con
@Nonilex
That offensive "no cards" statement again. It seems they do have "cards" that #DonTheCon very much wants. He's desperate for that mineral deal.
@randahl The Dotard Putin ass-licker his pathetic lackey can’t be trusted to make or keep a deal. #DonTheCon will never be on Ukraine’s side even though he is required to be by signed agreements.
Somebody should probably look into how much gold the Trump Organization is holding.
I know for a fact that his buddies among the Saudi royals and billionaire classes own quite a lot.... #DonTheCon #TheGriftGoesOn

@Robo105 @janhoglund too true! But he is a 34 times convicted felon. Why would anyone trust him?
@justinwolfers
People don't get it yet.
In 2024, #Vance blamed #Biden for the high price of eggs. T**** took over, the price of #eggs exploded and people stopped buying eggs, causing the price to plummet.
Now, #DonTheCon's telling everyone he "cut the price of eggs 92%" (ie: still 8% higher than where he started.)
He's doing the same with the #StockMarket. He's crashing the DOW, reversing course like The Titanic spotting an iceberg, and stocks will recover just short of where they started.
@Nazani
Hey, #DonTheCon will always be their kind of racist. Why do you think they stopped complaining about inflation?
Inflation was just something to complain about because they don't want to be perceived as racists.
@ProPublica
It is… "fascinating" (for lack of a better word) how much of #DonTheCon's policies AND popular support is drawn from #racism.
Think of all the #DayOne promises he made & failed to achieve: Bring prices down, end the war in #Ukraine, retrieve the hostages in #Gaza… etc & so on.
"Round up gang members & terrorists and #deport them" became: going after the low-hanging fruit of UNAdjudicated migrants already in jail & foreign-born protesters on college campuses.
AND THEY DON'T CARE.
@GossiTheDog another reason why #never51
US banking is crap & for some reason continues to break. Maybe it is similar to #gunviolence ? Too much big money for politicians to fix it?
@octothorpe The worst thing this country has done since Iraq is to let that Dotard Traitor and his racist goons off the hook for their insurrectionist coup. #DonTheCon is blowing up the world economy and for what? His egotistical fantasy of being another Hitler. Really infuriating. It’s way worse than anyone imagined. Sociopathic lunacy.
@randahl
I hope so!! Also, there is zero reason why Ukraine would have to pay #DonTheCon's goons a cent for weapons that were delivered under a deal through the Biden Admin. Sorry Donnie Dimwit.
Would you like to see the economic future of America under #DonTheCon? Take a look at Venezuela.
Before Hugo Chavez, Venezuela was the most prosperous economy in South America. Between Chavez and Maduro, they have made Venezuela the poorest economy in South America.
That is the future of America under #DonTheCon.
@DemocracyMattersALot
I don't have the clip, but when Alex Wagner was still hosting the prime-time show on MSNBC, she interviewed some T**** Supporters and asked them why they voted for him.
One woman cited the #Covid Stimulus Check she received with #DonTheCon's name on it.
I got the impression she believed he paid those checks right out of his own pocket. 
#DonTheCon's #Trade Sec Lutnik on #ThisWeek argued that... despite the fact ONLY CONGRESS has the authority to impose #tariffs (and therefore #TraitorTrump is once again violating the #Constitution)... T**** does indeed have the authority on the grounds of "National Security".
Warren: "What's the National Security threat we have with Belgium?"
