Trump responds to a reporter’s question with an answer that makes no sense.
Decipher This
Trump: No taxpayer money for the ballroom at all.
Reporter: Did you direct Secretary Bessent on the bond market?
Trump: No, not at all. He’s a very capable man. He wanted to do it. He’s very good at it. He has a good touch, a very good natural touch for the bonds and interest. He did that, yep.
Reporter: The yields have come back up since then. Have you talked to Bessent about another type of intervention?
Trump: We have many types of intervention. That’s one. The ultimate intervention is our military. And if we have to use that, we will.
Trying to Make Sense of the Absurd
- Trump has no idea what he is saying. This increasingly happens with progressing dementia.
- Trump thinks that bombing or invading Iran will help the bond market.
- A combination of #1 and #2.
There are no other logical choices. All three are troubling.
Reverse Surgery
“HOSPITALS ARE DOING REVERSE SURGERY AT MY ORDER”
This man is EXTREMELY unwell. He constantly spews out fantastically insane nonsense. People w/ advancing dementia/alzheimers often confabulate completely crazy things in their brains & think they are real. This is wildly insane.

Blithering Economic Nonsense
And MAGA Cheers.
In case you missed it, please see An Economically Illiterate Trump Attempts to Explain Interest Rates
Our President is completely illiterate when it comes to basic finance.
His statements are always idiotic, its tough to tell if anything is different
As time goes on his ignorant decisions just make the situation worse and worse and so the language follows
Hes just a loudmouth dumbfuck
The headline sounds like a Military invasion.
But the reality is pure financial engineering:
Using the massive US military budget as an emergency economic shield to save the crumbling US bond market..
He’s a genius! 😉
But you’re a voter of his. Many times right? And no, voting for a libertarian candidate afterwards doesn’t count. Remember in 2016 when you made it publicly known who you should vote for? Hillary would’ve been so bad. Thank God that didn’t happen.
I get it champ. But now it comes home to roost. How silly it was to embrace this idiot. Enjoy! Although we all have to suffer so that sucks…
You are really a stupid moron.
I never voted for Trump you idiot and I made numerous posts on that.
I voted for myself, explained many times.
I cannot stand any of them.
Your apology is accepted.
At last the Hormuz is safe, American territory doesn’t need bombing, does it?
He’s got multiple health problems (sundowning, congestive heart failure, et al) but they’re pumping him full of ever-greater amounts of stimulants and floating him out in front of the press. His brain wants to sleep but can’t because of whatever they’re giving him but you can see how now even the drugs are failing to keep him at a baseline and he’s slipping even more. that’s not even counting all these times he’s dozed off after his bump wears off. I will be shocked if Old Corn Pop lasts another year.
So President Vance then?
Now that would be a hoot! Finally a president to make Hoover look competent.
Trump Threatens to Use the Military on the US Bond MarketIt appeals to these sort of people: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uHkvD7-u7y8
Speaking of Inflation. This just makes it all the WORSE:
“Ukrainian attack drones reportedly struck the Novokuybyshevsk refinery, with explosions and a large smoke plume seen over the site.
Ukraine claims 4 Russian refineries have been hit in just 4 days. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/svg/1f440.svgUkrainian attack drones reportedly struck the Novokuybyshevsk refinery, with explosions and a large smoke plume seen over the site.

This creates shortages and problems likely until early spring ’27 or worse.

yes, Trump is showing increased signs of becoming mentally unhinged. I am not a leftist, I am center right, but I hope the Dems take both the house and the senate in the midterms to put some restraints on this guy.
I think anyone from any political background should be able to agree, assuming they have an IQ over single digits, that MAGA should be removed from power before they can turn the US into a crater.
Agreed. This strip mining of our nation has to end
Reverse Surgery is de-transition Surgery. Tons of confused kids were told they were transgender and encouraged to have transition Surgery which basically ruined their lives.

We’re down to the NY post for sources huh? Nothing on justthenews.com fit the bill?
I remember when the GOP could at least throw something like Epstein out there as a distraction. Funny, we don’t hear about that one much anymore.
Americans! Time to keep all options open…
Moving to Iran as an Expat: The Complete Guide
Living in Iran offers deep cultural richness, incredible natural diversity, and an exceptionally warm, welcoming society. Daily life is highlighted by profound human connections, rich culinary traditions, and a breathtaking architectural heritage that spans thousands of years.
Moving the residents of Louisiana over there would be considered a WMD

“We’re going to bomb the shit out of the bond market.”
Taco continues to get worse by the day. He definitely needs a thorough mental exam before he causes a larger disaster than he has thus far.
We must be at war with high interest rates instead of inflation.
Our enlightened population is the real problem. A stock market jolt might help wake people up but every time it drops, it manages to rebound again.
Probably because the whole “market” is a dozen guys in on the graft. We have an entirely fake economy and it is high time to own that fact.
Trump probably thought the reporter said ‘BOMB MARKET’
He thinks Warsh is a military guy.
In a way, they all are. This regime’s business is war. Since founding. The little people are assets.
