Corrections are healthy. How is the Chinese stock market doing?
Democracies giveth, and they taketh away. Enough of you rubes get upset with prices at the Dollar Tree between now and Fall 2026, it ain't gonna matter one iota how the Chinese are doing (however bad).
it will be interesting to see how this consumer-led nation will do in a few weeks when the shelves start emptying out.
In which we remember how openly Trump has always solicited and accepted bribes, esp from foreigners. Shame on Republicans for looking the other way. This continues to this day, but on a vastly larger scale, with trump accepting bribes via many paths, including his crypto scam.
Just one more way trump slashes and burns the Constitution. Reminder:
The emoluments clause of the US Constitution prohibits federal officeholders from receiving gifts, payments, or other things of value from foreign states or their rulers.

Trump 1 Scandal Blotter
In which we see the inklings of how Trump would eliminate checks and balances over his years in office, declaring congress basically null and void and edging toward ignoring the courts when they balance his power. No major laws have been passed, but we've had radical change in our country - all by executive orders. That's Trump eliminating congress as a check or balance on his power.
He's just not a fan of the concept of a constitutional democratic republic, boys. He's a dictator and will spend all his time in office eroding checks and balances trying to create a monarchy in America.

America does not need luck. The Chinese and Russians could definitely use it, but we will not hammer them too bad if they step up to the table in good faith. Elsr there will be many dead Russians and more Chinese citizens revolting

Well they got the mineral deal. Russia wouldn't dare overrun the mineral sites, right?
Prediction: Trump will make a deal with Putin to allow him to commit genocide on Ukrainians, keep all the territory they captured and leave US mines alone. Putin will keep this agreement until it no longer suits him, then try to frame Ukraine when they bomb US mines to take the minetals. Trump will impotently accept that it was Ukraine and join Russia to defeat Ukraine.

Only partial. Trump made a deal with Putin to let have a better deal as long as Trump could claim he won.

Actually imposed Ukrainian genocide from CIA, Biden, Blinken, and Zelensky.
Remember that dope Blinken imitating Neil Young’s Rocking in the Free World in some bar in Kviv while hundreds died.
Few things worse than pretending you’re cool while others are dying for your sins.
