Guitar in hand, Raiders in my heart, I'm just a political science guy turned businessman who still follows politics like it's my second job. Love my family, love my work, and love what this country is still trying to be.

Watching the markets not completely collapse under Trump’s erratic management leads me to believe the narrative of “predictable,” “stable,” and “limited change” has just been BS reserved for Democratic administrations. Just felt like stating the obvious.

When the President of the United States is on social media screeching "BE COOL!" to the entire world, what sort of idiot does one have to be not to realize he has lost the plot completely and the nation is not in secure hands

Many speculate that Musk has enormous control over Trump. He may. He’s certainly paid to get control. But with Musk’s fortune tied to the government purse and Tesla stock. And Trumps betrayals of past allies. I think Musk is vulnerable to Trump’s whims. Thoughts? abcnews.go.com/amp/US/trump...

With all the horrible economic news, the near certainty that the GDP and jobs numbers will be bad, consumer confidence on the decline, how does this make sense? If a dem is in office and the news isn’t “good enough” the markets decline. WTF?

The fundamentals of Tesla never warranted its share price. Now, with so much damage done to the brand and the bad news, the stock creeps up this week. 🤔 It’s not based on value, never has been. The promise has never been delivered. It’s a cult or a scam. Prove I’m wrong.

Since Trump and his boss Musk are making cuts without getting new law drafted. I assume the actual budget doesn’t change. Which then means we’ll still run deficits but provide no benefit? Of course, we’re in a post-constitutional order - so who knows what it really means now.

Fetterman is trying to sound principled - but it’s not. Sure, shutdowns suck, but Republicans cave quickly because they always get the blame. The workers return, pay resumes. He’s either the worst negotiator, lacks courage, is a fool, or complicit. He’s certainly not part of the solution.

If there were ever times like these during Biden’s presidency, my MAGA friends would be posting 💩 about their 401K and socialism. Even when there was a quick rebound, or it had nothing to do with policy. This has everything to do with Trump and policy and MAGA is silent.

I remember a nice lady, she may have had some false accusations about her use of email. If memory serves, she told us Trump was Putin’s puppet. Some didn’t believe her. Who am I to truly know - but I’ve been reading the news and maybe she was on to something.

Don’t just say DEI as if it’s a bad word. Spell it out. Say diversity, which is the lifeblood of American society & culture & innovation. Say equity, which a just society should pursue. Say inclusion, because decent people believe in increasing belonging, not isolating people who are different.

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

Post COVID, inflation had “natural” economic triggers (supply chain, etc). Companies responded with a combination of normal & opportunistic prices increases. The inflation to follow the trade war will do the same thing - but this will be self inflicted. Nothing natural or normal going on this time.
