And why were poor pathetic Gilligan and GURPS so wrong to count their chickens....
Because we have an incompetent President that's why! A week ago, a bipartisan committee from Congress offered a DACA deal that pretty much handed The Great Negotiator everything he wanted except full funding for the all (Mexico is still refusing...how DARE they!). Instead of taking the deal, President shortbus did his usual flip flop. So now, as we trudge towards another self inflicted crisis, markets are reacting negatively. And the repeat why...it is because our President is incompetent.
