re: Yahoo Finance:The smart money is preparing for Trumpflation

Bro, if Biden were to win and get Congress you can’t imagine how much he would spend.


I do agree Trump will spend if he wins, but I don’t think it will be as much.

---

I could be wrong, but I just don't think it will be markedly different. And whatever difference there might be, I'm very concerned that Trump will return to his bully tactics re: interest rates which would more than make up the difference.

What is it being suggested that “smart money” is doing other than buying gold?

this has to be a troll.....

Muh mean tweets is back?

I honestly can't even with people like this anymore.

Are you fricking retarded? The Fed chair is appointed by the president. When the sitting president starts barking that any talk of raising interest rates by the Fed is simply an attempt to undermine his presidency, and in fact we should potentially lower the rates into the negatives, only an idiot, or a Fed chairman who wants to lose their job, is going to publicly buck that president when their term ends during said presidency. And guess whose current term ends during the next presidential term...

What has Biden done to help decrease inflation?

Not fighting the Fed in raising interest rates. I think Biden is a fricking potato, and I think the Fed should be abolished, but if the Fed is going to exist, having a president who isn't going to cry into any microphone you hand him that the Fed is trying to undermine his presidency is preferable to having one who is.

Again, frick Biden, frick Trump, and frick the Fed. I have no love for any of them. Both Biden and Trump have track records of running massive deficits. But only one of them has a track record of trying to bully the Fed into making inflation even worse than it already would have been. So on this one, narrow issue, I actually think Biden would be better. But even if you don't, I don't think any reasonable person can say that the proposition is entirely unreasonable.

But I genuinely hope both Trump and Biden get incapacitated before the election, because fricking hell, this fricking sucks.

Biden is twofold: he's already done his big blowout spending plan,

Stupid liberal clowns

Meaning that I don't anticipate for him to do another big splashy spending plan, as I've said repeatedly in this thread. On what planet would that imply that he "stopped spending", you absolute fricking donkey?

quote:

---

So he hasnt called for negative rates. I figured

But keep lashing out

---

You can't actually be this stupid... he called for negative rates when he was president: LINK
And has called for the lowering of rates from where they are now if elected (already linked). Which was in answer to this question of yours:

quote:

---

Has Orange been calling for negative rates if he gets back in or lower rates?

---

Relevant portion bolded. So yes, to answer to your question, he has, in fact, called for the lowering of rates if he's elected. I genuinely can't tell whether you've actually gotten this stupid over the years, or whether you're simply being dishonest.

quote:

---

Rates where zero when he was prez. He has in fact called for lower rates (no shite) but hasnt in fact called for negative rates if reelected like you claimed

I mean you are not a bright person but you are getting real angry like any liberal being called out on their mierda

---

Again, I genuinely can't tell if you're this stupid or if you're being dishonest. I never, not once, said that he was calling for rates to go negative if he were reelected. You're just flat out making that up. This is what I said:

quote:

---

On the other hand, Trump is likely going to want to come in and do some splashy spending at the same time return to browbeating the Fed about trying to undermine his presidency if they either raise, or simply won't lower, the rate.

---

The only thing I've said that you could even disingenuously try to twist is this:

And guess whose current term ends during the next presidential term...

---

Yet I'm clearly talking about something that has happened in the past (and verifiably did happen in the past, as I've linked), not something that would happen in the future, as Trump is no longer the sitting president.

Wait, you are aware that Trump isn't the president right now, right? Are we getting into some kind of Q fever dream here?

ETA: And frick you with your "no shite" nonsense. You flat out challenged me on whether Trump had discussed "lowering rates" if he were reelected, and now that I've proven he has, you want to pretend as though you weren't arguing it earlier in the thread. Stop fricking lying you hack.

Well yeah now that you edited that out of your original post you didnt say Look how angry you are and melting down

Which post are you lying about now, exactly?

And I’m not angry or melting. You’re a lying clown, and it’s pathetic

quote:

yes that why you are lashing out typing out walls of text that no one is reading

Tell me which post of mine you’re lying about, clown. Don’t bitch out now.

The one you edited i dont remember if it was your first edited post of the second Nor do I care cause you are a worthless poster. But im glad i have caused you to implode on this fine Friday

Sorry clown, the post that I edited was the post clearly talking about events in the past. Also, the only edit I made was that I realized I had incorrectly typed “who’s”, which I fixed to whose. How much did it hurt when you went back to look at my first post, the one clearly discussing what I think Trump would do in the future, only to realize it had never been edited?

You’re a clown, everyone on this board knows you’re a clown, so go back to your safe space on the PT, clown
