The market needs to fluctuate.

With the triple whammy of the tax cut, the CBO's assessment that earlier action will be needed to increase the debt ceiling, and the dollar dropping (tRump: NAFTA, TPP, threatening tariffs, etc.) it will be a significant adjustment.

Oh, and indicators of inflation are in that mix too.

But rather, in a bed of Trump bullshit?

Is this more than just a "normal" correction?

What do think will be the final result. The steady Obama economy is over.

Really sickens me to think that some DU posters are so desperate for Trump to be blamed that they are happy everytime there is bad news regarding the economy.

Why people are hoping for the economy to tank thus ruining people's retirement accounts and potentially causing rising unemployment and home foreclosure rates is disgusting.

My OP was more tongue in cheek for our idiot President who always takes credit for it going up...will he take responsibility when it goes down? Of course not.

Do you actually believe any of us are going to come out of this freak show unscathed. I am willing to take some pain in order to get that fucking asshole out of office. The longer he is in office the greater the danger for all of us.
