Great earnings coming out of Stock Market. Too bad Media doesn’t devote much time to this!

1. Somehow, the word "earnings" applied to stock market income offends me.

As does income from direct labor being taxed higher.

4. Wow, I LOVE what your 45 does there.

That's brilliant, aka-chmeee. Brilliant.

2. Stupid fu*k!

5. Then why did my IRA drop over $20000 last year? nt

6. My husband's 401K took a massive hit these past few months. Nothing to crow about.

But we are not using any of it right now. He will have to start withdrawals later this year. It is the working government employees who are in trouble financially. tRump is as clueless as Ross if he thinks people want to hear him brag on stock market earnings when we have so many working American citizens needing food assistance, rent or mortgage assistance, utilities aid and on and on. It shows a tremendous lack of understanding of what HIS government shutdown is doing to our citizens. Some will be impacted by this stunt for a very long time. I hope it all sticks to him like glue. It will be his legacy right after the treason he committed to get in office in the first place.

7. Earnings has been kind of a mixed bag lately

He wants to take credit days when the market is up and blame others on down days. Btw-why in the hell would the evening news talk about stock market earnings? Theres a ratings grabber!
