re: Election 2016 Thread - PRESIDENT DONALD J TRUMP

Precious metals are a store of value. Fear (market uncertainty, read political outsider) drives money out of stocks and into metals. For the opposite in effect, look where the blue line plummeted Sunday following Comey's "clearing" of Hillary.



Money is betting on Trump.

Eta: the current downward movement is pro-HRC.

When they think Hillary will win it drops and when they think trump will win it rises? (PM's yes, stocks no) If that's right, why? (Trump = uncertainty) Why do they want metals if trump wins? (They don't necessarily want metals, they're uncomfortable with Trump uncertainty) Seems like Hillary being under investigation would scare you into investing in precious metals, right? (It did)

Having said this, the value of silver is not unreasonable, but gold might be.

Scared money will flee from the riskier stock market and into the relative safety of metals. A Trump presidency is scary in that he's an unknown relative to the smooth transition expected with a Hillary victory.

Will Trump ruffle feathers in the Fed?
Will the Fed finally raise rates, dropping a turd in Trump's economic punch bowl?
Will market powers punish America for fighting globalism as we saw in the UK after the Brexit vote?

Trump --> uncertainty --> investment in metals.

Voted for the first time ever today. I'm 41 and never cared about politics too much. I also know that no matter who I voted for, it wouldn't have an impact in Louisiana.

I'm completely hooked on the process this year. I didn't like Obama, but I didn't have a real problem with him when he ran (I feel very differently now). Over the last couple of years I've become more interested. The past 6 months I've become much more invested in the election.

I know my vote won't make a real difference this year. Louisiana is going Trump regardless what I do. Having said that, I couldn't sit on the sidelines for this one. I get up as late as possible every day and maximize my sleep which usually means getting up at 7:30 to make it to Baton Rouge for my job around 9. Today I set the alarm at 6am so I could vote before work. I didn't even hit snooze I was so ready to vote my conscience.

Very proud to say I made the decision to MAGA and officially throw my 2 cents in! I'm both energized by Trump and disgusted by Hillary. I proudly cast my lot with Trump. And I proudly denounce the idea of voting a criminal into the highest office in this land.

I generally didn't believe a President was all that important. At the end of the day, what can they really accomplish? Well, I saw what Obama did to race relations and the power of the US on an international stage. I shudder to think of what Hillary would do in the same position.


MAGA! MAGA! MAGA!

This is great, is there anyway that you can include the map that shows how many electoral votes each State has.

The wife and I stood in line for an hour but we voted to MAGA on Friday in Dallas.

Got damn there are some stupid people in this country

This veteran and his household just cast our votes to MAGA in Cobb County GA.
No wait at all. Walked in filled out form and MAGAd

in open carry state Nevada,firearms still illegal at school/govt property #electionprotection #electionday @CommonCause @aclu @LawyersComm


Apparently people are showing up with guns in open carry states and have forgotten that guns aren't legal on government property (lots of polling places are at schools)
