How can you possibly tank the stock market and the bond market and have record government socialism?

Remember those days when conservatives talked about the wisdom of capitalism and getting government out of the business of trying to run the economy because free markets would naturally create the best economic conditions for everyone.

MAGA in motion = BID

There is no plan to land this plane. Just rage and inflict pain on the libs who made them feel bad about themselves.

he could have literally taken office and changed absolutely nothing and we'd still be the envy and leaders of the global economy. instead the rough ridin' moron chose another path.

Imagine what the markets would have done if his only two actions were to allow more oil drilling and deregulations on other business segments.

the hilarious thing is we wouldn't even utilize the ability to drill more. we're a net exporter of oil since 2020 and unless the price goes up we are over capacity to even open new wells. it's just such a mush brained ingrained concept that they demand we allow it.

oh, yes, it would obviously be much better for the economy. I'm just pointing out how stupid it is.

There might be some dipshits who watched a lot of Oil Man who drilled more but they would be gone quickly .

It's the crap like this that still kinda blows me away. What did Biden do that was anti-business other than not invite Elon to the EV conference at the White House?

Tough to "etc." (I'm using it as a verb here) two of the baddest words out there, but the picture you have painted is Bob Ross-esque.

I mean, the [redacted] had coal miners in the White House this week saying he's going to reinvigorate the coal industry. This rough ridin' guy is stuck in the 50's.

Nah, he's pandering to whatever he can get to maker it look like he's doing something. If we led the world in every metric of battery production he'd pimp that and be like we need more coal. He is the ultimate cheerleader of anything that makes him look good, that he came up with, or whatever even if there is overall no straight forward reason for it.
