"If I ever got impeached, I think the market would crash. I think everybody would be very poor," the president said in a Fox News interview that aired Thursday. "Because without this thinking, you would see numbers that you wouldn't believe in reverse," Trump said, pointing at his head. "I got rid of regulations. The tax cut was a tremendous thing."
o shit o shit we're gonna be poor pls don't impeach him!!!
"Trump said, pointing at his head. "I got rid of regulations. The tax cut was a tremendous thing." I had to check the source to make sure I wasn't reading the onion. For at least 3 reasons.
I wouldn't say crash but political turmoil does typically have a negative affect on the stock market. Same can be said for Japan or China; if their leader was removed from power you can bet that the entire Japanese stock market would take a downtick
Colateral damage, much like when he drops a few bombs in the wrong places
Well, typically change of leadership does have a negative affect on stock market prices, but there are exceptions. HPs stock actually went up when Carly Fiorina left, and I imagine US Steel would go up when Trump is gone
And if he isn't re-elected in 2020, California will fall into the sea. More desperate lies from a desperate "innocent" man.
Since he knows it's the beginning of the end I wonder if he'll ramp up the disruptive behaviour. Do as much damage as he can before he's taken down kicking and screaming.
But who will be the golden cow if Trump gets removed? /s
i like him. he's a funny guy. get impeached already, willya
- Denial - Anger - Bargaining - Depression - Acceptance
LMFAO someone is starting to feel the heat.
Looks like Polidicks is going to become a LMAO Pics sub forum
Quite a hypothetical to bring up. Why do you think you’re going to be impeached, Trump? You’re innocent, aren’t you?
I'd have thought the stock market would be pretty positive of an impeachment given that he's spent the past couple of months drumming up a trade war with the country's biggest trading partners.
Oh shit oh fuck it says we really impeached him
Oh, he's getting nervous now. This is the presidential equivalent of "You can't break up with me! You're nothing without me, you would die without me!" In fact, the more I think about it the more I realize Trump is basically a less comedic Hades from Disney's "Hercules". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JAbGGIV45Ng
"If I ever got impeached, I think the market would crash [ go down a small amount, hurting mostly rich people and investors ]. I think everybody [ rich people, the only real people ] would be very poor [ loose a small percentage of their massive wealth ]," the president said in a Fox News interview that aired Thursday. "Because without this thinking, you would see numbers that you wouldn't believe in reverse," Trump said, pointing at his head [ where all the brain thoughts happen ]. "I got rid of regulations [ for my bootlicker's companies ]. The tax cut was a tremendous thing [ for rich people ]." The worst part of this, of course, would be if a recession caused by the GOP's deregulation follow Trump's impeachment. Urrrgh, I can see the Fox News headlines already.
It happens after he's impeached? "SEE, I TOLD YOU THIS WOULD HAPPEN" It happens while he's still in office? "it's all the democrats faults, also hillary"
"I don't know how you can impeach somebody who's done a great job," Why are you booing me? I'm right
He gave himself an A+ Could he be any more detached from reality
I don't think this is the type of thing you would be saying if you weren't currently scared of being impeached.
Of course he gave himself an A+. Literally everything he doesn't like is fake news or someone else's fault. He cannot stand living in reality, because in reality Donald Trump is a shitty human who often fails, and he cannot handle the notion that he is anything less than the best. The President is mentally ill, and I'm not joking around or using this as an insult. I'm no psychologist but I'm convinced that he has cognitive disorders that make him not only unfit for office but willing to do absolutely anything to stop himself from being held responsible for anything. The only way he could be more detatched from reality is if he suffered spontaneous waking hallucinations and tried to converse with hallucinated people who aren't even there.
How did the stock market react to Bill Clinton's impeachment hearings?
that's why we're going to jail him last (?)
If the GOP enters a downturn then its a possibility, large sections of the GOP house where calling him out until they became a bunch of suck-asses when Trump pulled off a victory. Its going to be difficult to sweep anything under the rug either if dems win the house, this midterm is extremely important.
I somehow wouldn't be surprised if he got re-elected in 2020, despite all the dumb shit he's come out with.
Well, I mean to be fair, technically during all other constitutional crisis moments in history, the stock market has dropped a bit. BUT, during Trump it's already doing pretty fucking poorly so if anything we serve to see a correction. During the Nixon scandal, the S&P fell nearly 50%, but the market was also already on the way to a recession, oddly enough it basically had recovered not more than two years later. Market correction and all that. Wall Street are afraid of their own shadow, nothing new there. The thing to remember is that a strong economy and stable government will do leagues more for the stock market than Trump's "pick a new policy from the hat" style of doing retarded shit, so once the initial panic subsides we'll see a much stronger, and better recovery for the market.
I don't feel that we'd have a stable government if we'd impeach him to be blunt. With how polarized and geared up people are, it's only bound to make everyone grit their teeth harder.
Things won't get better until they get worse. Things are going to get worse.
