He doesn’t want prices to be low for young people who “didn’t work very hard.” Boomers who bought their houses for 50k can’t take an equity hit!

Nothing wrong with this if interest rates are low.

Now a “Panican” if you don’t agree with terrible economic policies.

No you’re a panican for sharing a tweet which doesn’t give the full context of the discussion. You’re nit picking over a tweet on something you didn’t watch.

I voted for Trump, this isn’t a “gotcha”. It’s just fricking stupid.

Do you not own a home, what specifically are your concerns?

Goes hand in hand with his 50 year mortgage crap. Clearly he doesn’t want to lower housing prices, he’s discussed his viewpoint several times.

Imagine how you’d feel as a home owner if the president was willing to put the weight of the federal government behind driving down the price/value of your home.

Out of curiosity - What would your reaction be if he said “I want to tank the value of your home”

That would be fine if jobs and wages went up accordingly. That's not happening.

Don't interrupt these geniuses. They've really got Trump this time. Let them have their moment and run with it.

I mean technically that is correct. If all else stays equal. The true value of our homes isn't what's changing. The value of the dollar is what's changing. If all other factors stay the same, inflation may happen, but incomes and other assets inflate the same. It's when we drive up home cost due to cheap money, then do a 180 and have high rates, then we see people getting screwed (aka the last several years).
