SFP’s grasp of a currency swap is what he’s googled in the past 24 minutes

I gave a relatively detailed response.

Which part do you have problems with?

This had nothing to do with making a profit or saving Argentina. Like the $100 billion in “foreign aid” we send out annually this is simply a bribe to other countries to use our fiat currency.
The result is more debt which we are made responsible for repaying.

I think the football analogy you're looking for is "run out the clock". Spiking the ball assumes you're out of timeouts and trying to stop the clock to get off a last second score to walk it off. In other words, someone spiking the ball is currently losing and attempting to win. That's not the case, as Leavitt and Trump have already won, and would be running out the clock.

My statement was but a synopsis of your overall messaging about basically everything you have a need to text on. Your in-depth response as you claim is but the seething of your background

No

The idiom referencing a post-TD celebration.

quote:

The idiom "spike the football" refers to either the act of celebrating a success by slamming the ball to the ground or, more figuratively, the act of emphasizing a victory or achievement in a celebratory and often excessive way. The literal football action of spiking the ball is also used to stop the clock, a technique that makes the phrase relevant in both competitive and celebratory contexts.

Figurative meaning: Celebration of victory

Symbol of triumph: To "spike the football" means to celebrate a success, often by over-emphasizing it. It implies making a big deal out of a win or a key accomplishment.

Origin: This figurative meaning comes from the literal act of a player slamming the ball to the ground after scoring a touchdown, a celebration popularized by NFL player Homer Jones.

Of course would be on the side of ensuring a guaranteed loss for Americans over the potential for gain despite the presence of risk.

You advocate that risk is the reason trump is an imbecile yet you ignore that the alternative eliminates all risk (and therefore potential gain) in favor of guaranteed losses.

Why you continue to believe you are always the smartest person in the room is beyond my ability to comprehend.

That's what we call a straw man.

Where did I call Trump, his admin, or anyone involved in the currency swap an imbecile?

Again, starwman territory.

The US not engaging in this currency swap does not "guarantee losses" my man.

There’s a hole but it’s not the hole that you think when your arse gets involved on a thread.

Who would we unload these suddenly valuable Argenetinian Pesos on to realize the gain?

Right. This is just more rube fodder.

Declaring a win with Argentina is like being up 3-0 against Bama in the middle of the first quarter.

That's fine, but remember, you're playing Alabama.

In this case, remember Argentina has defaulted on IMF loans multiple times and the peso is ridiculously unstable
