For or against tariffs?

Do you really have access to any news? last night the big headline was 50 countries affected by Trumps tariffs want to NOW have meetings with him. What do you think they are gonna want to meet about? My guess is how to come to a settlement with Trump and Trump most likely is gonna want their tariffs completely removed or they will go into effect. Suspending tariffs until the meetings have taken place seems pretty normal to me, he has gotten them to the bargaining table now. That is the 1st step, and it only took what 3 days, the man is a frigging genius.
It was genius. So was letting everyone know it was a great time to buy and announcing the tariff suspension several hours later. Hope everyone on the inside was listening.

So now you are for insider trading?

After complaining about the swamp profiting off insider info.

Do you even hear yourself?
You know sometimes I'm actually on your side and then you just can't help yourself, you just have to say something. So despite my usual Aquarius root for the underdog nature, I think I'm just going to tell you to go *uck yourself, although I'm fairly certain you already do.

BTW I thought the whole thing yesterday had the slight stench of insider trading long before that's what others were saying and had it been Biden doing it instead of Trump it would be called just that and rightfully so but you are so busy assuming that you are the font of all knowledge and know everything there is to know about everyone that you can't even recognize mild sarcasm.

So let me just reiterate Little Miss Know It All, GFY. Literally GFY. Maybe you'll wake up in a better frame of mind.

So because you are angry at me you will allow Trump to commit crimes openly in the white House.

Does not make much sense to me but whatever makes you happy.

Cite the statute.


It's called insider trading

Trump does not usually sign off his post with his initials. Those letters happen to be the same as the ticker for Trump Media & Technology Group, the business that controls Truth Social, whose stock shot up by 22% on Wednesday.

The timing of the US president’s posts and subsequent huge share jumps has sparked accusations of market manipulation. The Democratic senator Adam Schiff has called for an investigation, saying: “These constant gyrations in policy provide dangerous opportunities for insider trading.

“Who in the administration knew about Trump’s latest tariff flip-flop ahead of time? Did anyone buy or sell stocks, and profit at the public’s expense? I’m writing to the White House – the public has a right to know.”

The Democratic senator Chris Murphy also wrote on X that an “insider trading scandal is brewing … Trump’s 9:30am tweet makes it clear he was eager for his people to make money off the private info only he knew. So who knew ahead of time and how much money did they make?”

The New York Democratic representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez called for all members of Congress to disclose any stocks they had bought in the past 24 hours. “I’ve been hearing some interesting chatter on the floor,” she wrote on X. “Disclosure deadline is May 15th. We’re about to learn a few things. It’s time to ban insider trading in Congress.”


When asked by US reporters on Wednesday evening when exactly he arrived at his decision to pause the tariffs on most countries for 90 days, Trump said: “For a period of a time. I would say this morning. Over the last few days, I’ve been thinking about it.”

However White House officials have argued the shift was part of the strategy all along, with his press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, arguing it was his “art of the deal” at work.

Several investors have used volatility in the stock market in recent weeks as a buying opportunity. The US representative for Georgia, Republican and Trump ally Marjorie Taylor Greene, disclosed that she had made several purchases on 3 and 4 April – days when there were sharp market falls after Trump first detailed his “liberation day” tariffs on 2 April – including shares in Amazon.com and Apple. Shares in the technology companies rose by 12% and 15% respectively on Wednesday.

A big nothing burger, only the folks who watched and didn't step in and buy are upset.
