| Soundwave said: Stock market will go up regardless of the president, in modern history it went up huge under Clinton, went up big under Obama, went up under Trump's first term, went up again under Biden's term. George W. Bush is like the only president where the stock market didn't rise during their term, the triple whammy of the dot com bubble crash (2000), to a lesser extent 9/11 (2001), and to a greater extent the Housing market meltdown of 2008 will do that. Business is business, people don't stop buying/consuming products because one person is president versus someone else. People still go to Starbucks, McDonalds, whatever, parents still have to buy their kids back to school clothes, people still indulge in things like iPhones and game consoles and buying new cars. You still have to pay for cable and internet and people still need to fly places and go on vacation etc. etc. etc. If a president is interfering with that, they will not be in office very long. |
You would think that the president who interferes so heavily would face consequences but that doesn't seem to be the case as trump is fine meanwhile he goes scorched earth on global trade, is increasing prices for everything in the US due to stupid tariffs and weirdly terrorizing citizens by sending in the national guard. Oh and also interfering with farming and shit by sending ICE goons everywhere to abduct anyone they please.
US has a stupid system where kicking out the president is insanely hard.
Just a guy who doesn't want to be bored. Also
