ex-President Trump
I assume it's still acceptable to have a Trump thread in a Politics forum?
So this is an obvious lie - basically aimed at
Maybe if Agent Orange hadn't fleeced his cult out of all their money on donations, gold sneakers, and (lol) bibles, they might have had some left to "invest" in his latest Ponzi.
Apparently (according to Devin Nunes) the falling share price is because the SEC and Biden have conspired to tank it.
Projection. It is ALWAYS projection.
This is exactly what Trump would do to an adversary's stock if he had the opportunity. And other people's money to do it with, of course.

I read he blamed Griffin from citadel actually, one of the biggest republican donors ever.
Who personally claimed Nunes is basically a fish who should be fired and can't play in the league with adults.
How come it's always someone else's fault with these people? What happened to personal responsibility and rugged individualism?
Anyway, I thought share prices were demand driven, isn't that the point of capitalism? How can Biden and the SEC tank it?
I'm sure this noted financier and economist will explain all in due course:
The claim is the classic leftist one (remember populist trumpists are leftwing) : finance conspiring against the real economy, naked short selling should be illegal, SEC should go after financiers and so on.
The quarrel is with one of the biggest shark in finance, Griffin, an actual rightwing person
This is honestly embarrassing to watch at this point
leftist to the left of me! leftists to the rightists of me!!
I mean, if you think about it, if we put the left-right continuum on the surface of the Earth, going left is just another way to get to the right. So it all makes perfect sense, really. Luciom playing hyperbolic 4d chess while we're all playing linear tic-tac-toe.
Actually, coming to think of it, I think Luciom is a closet leftist. He's gonna get busted wearing a Lenin mask at a "Unite the Left" rally, watch this space.
TIL that trump voters are leftist

Hotshot theory works to describe the actual world.
If finance is your enemy you are a leftist.
If you want to help "the working class" vs the "capital class" in any capacity you are a leftist.
If you aren't pro unilateral drop of all tariffs full stop you are a leftist (of various degrees depending on which tariffs you want).
Many more, anyone agreeing with Milei main economic proposals isn't a leftist for example.
Most people in crypto aren't leftists.
Most people who actually won at poker weren't leftists at least until they won lol.
You are not a leftist

You are welcome to invent whatever definitions you like. That is not how those words are used by anyone else, so your definitions are beyond useless to the rest of us. The purpose of language being clear and concise communication, you may want to rethink your approach. Until you do, everyone is going to continue to clown on you, and with good reason.
I can't believe I find myself explaining this to a seemingly compos mentis adult.
can't speak for 2-3 of those guys who are probably 50/50, but pretty sure the rest would fit under your definition of leftist
This is basic libertarianism (deep hatred of the regulator state aka the left) 101
