    Really, This wasn't your post: Hopefully, the economy tanks and so do any chances of that ORANGE IMBECILE'S re-election.
    Why don't you just go live in a country that hates American's as much as you do?

    Democrats have always wanted to bring economic disaster to America because they believe Americans have it too good. Trump is the perfect excuse for them to provide their base for their anti-American actions. Next thing you know Democrats will be trying to pass giant bailout giveaways to their globalist supporters.

    It dosn't matter when. The fact is that Obama and his supporters tried to make claim that he was responsible for the current economy. So if that is the case, then he is just as responsible for the bad as well.

    I don't know what will happen to Trump's approval rating, but I DO know what I HOPE will happen to it. Conservative voters like to pretend capitalism is the single answer to all problems, and that government should be run like a business. So, they elected a businessman to the Oval Office. But government really isn't a business. The purpose of business is to make a profit. The purpose of government is to provide services to the people. Using techniques that work well to crate profits doesn't always translate to good government administration. If the government or the economy fails, perhaps those who voted for Trump will learn a valuable lesson--some of them anyway. I hope so. Successful government leadership depends on people who are more focused on helping others than themselves; more concerned about the welfare of the nation than their own private lives; more concerned about delivering services successfully than making a profit of any kind. Trump is the wrong kind of man for the job. No successful "businessman" has the right balance of capabilities for the Presidency. Any successful President of the U.S. has to put himself far down on the list of attention priorities. Everything pertaining to the country, its people & the Presidency itself, must be a higher priority. Trump utterly fails in that capacity.

    that theres always a correction sometime after 'black friday' due to over zealous predictions... this is the end of december, so...add that to fear mongor bs over politics, and... crash, a normal/expected event that perhaps is coming a tad early.

    edit: we dont have to agree, but thats my take on it...

    Well, a lot of executives and shareholders have benefited from Trump's idiotic tax cuts. They and no one else. Be proud.

    Good for you. What about the working people who need the work and wages that Trump's irresponsibility is set to wipe out? The people who will lose homes to foreclosures? The people who will commit suicide out of despair?

    Typical capitalist thinking. Find a way to make a personal profit, even when the economy is tanking. Don't give a thought to the pain endured by the majority of the people during the downturn. Before Trump I never actually realized how many Americans care so little about most Americans. Trump & his supporters have been great educators in that regard.

    Nice rant. Worthless and false, but a nice rant none the less. :)

    All over the stock market? I doubt it. How many people pay their bills from stock market purchases? How many "working people" (is that code for something) invest heavily in stocks and rely on it daily?

    The argument here is absurd.
