@BillBrewsterTBB @TMTLongShort He did something he was elected NOT to do, and now we should to want him to succeed so we don’t pay the price? Like a hostage situation?

@anthrod1 @TMTLongShort Think the point here is if he fails we all pay the price. You can want him to “get what he deserves” and still want him to succeed in Iran. TMT’s job has nothing to do with that. PS, TMT, if you need an LP holler at you boy.

I have no problem with the Canadians and Europeans in my comments scolding me when I talk about decoupling. I have a serious issue with the Americans who are rooting for Trump to fail simply because they don’t like his politics despite the obvious negative repercussions losing hegemony will have on our collective children and grandchildren. We are in the shit. Suck it up and vote him out at the polls. Until then STFU if the best you can do is publicly hope that Iran turns into a dumpster fire for our military or that France further undermines our leverage over Europe. If this is too much to ask you don’t deserve to benefit from the fruits of the hard men of the prior century who tirelessly worked to fortify the dominance and lifestyle you currently enjoy.

@em_gorilla @TMTLongShort It was a balanced trade for the American elite it was a god awful trade for the American working class. Trump is the manifestation of that.

@anthrod1 @TMTLongShort You are a Trump hating, anti-Republican and anti-American fool. Your timeline is dripping with it.

@ManufacturingGC @TMTLongShort You are contributing to the real economy. The same is not true for someone who subsists entirely on owning appreciating rent extraction claims on your labor. If the US is forced to start producing rather than only extracting then those two groups face very different futures.

@anthrod1 @TMTLongShort The fact that you don’t see the grey area is telling. For instance, I don’t build shit. But I schedule a factory everyday and the inputs from the factory I schedule (that wouldn’t produce jack shit without me) are used to make goods that we all use daily. Everyone plays a role.

@TMTLongShort My only point is that someone can hold that belief to be true and wish for his failure in order to preserve whatever is left of the ‘fruits of the hard men of the previous century’ and build back. That isn’t un-patriotic and frankly a quite logical argument.

@TMTLongShort I’m not playing games. I have admired your insight but now that you’ve ventured into deciding that I don’t deserve the country that I served, I just need to know which part of society you’re representing when you say that. It’s that simple. I have no desire to dunk on you.

@TMTLongShort It’s not a gotcha. But for this conversation it’s important to know whether the opinion is coming from someone who is actually in that builder group you discuss rather than the type who feels the need to invoke family status when defining their legitimacy.

I don’t follow. Are you saying capital is less valuable than labor. Are you seeing I’m less American because I didn’t build something with my hands? And where does that math start and end? Should we stack up how many businesses and buildings my family has built here vs yours. Normally I’d just ignore replies like this but I’m genuinely befuddled that you seem to think this is some kind of gotchya. Mf you are literally typing your comments from an app reliant on tech I helped fund 😘

@TMTLongShort Thought so. When you attack your fellow American over prosperity you should remember to put that little asterisk there to clarify which side you’re representing.

Before we fully turn the screws on Europe we will annihilate Canada. Full medieval shit. No prisoners. It’s going to be a bloodbath. And Europe is going to watch in horror and confusion. And then they’ll ask themselves “if he could do this to Canada what might he do to Spain” Elbows up, USMCA will be fun 🫡

Rep. Thomas Massie says we won’t have justice in America until Jeffrey Epstein’s clients get perp-walked in hand cuffs to the jail. "At some point, somebody got to Pam Bondi and said, it's your job to cover this up."

@adamtaggart Have you considered that the reason they can’t agree on a shared narrative is because neither are telling the truth?

FYI: just to keep the hornet's nest I stirred up fully buzzing, THIS is the kind of message I think Trump whiffed on delivering tonight: x.com/RyanSaavedra/s… You don't have to agree with it. But it does an effective job of arguing WHY the Admin thought it needed to act on Feb 28
Adam Taggart@adamtaggart

Thought tonight's Presidential address was a missed opportunity No matter how well it may be going, many Americans are uncomfortable that we are at war Trump should have offered more specific details on why the US had to act when it did

FYI: today the Supreme Court is finally holding its hearing on birthright citizenship The Admin is arguing to end automatic birthright citizenship for children born in the United States to undocumented immigrants or parents w/temporary legal status What's your position?

Trump is planning on attending oral arguments of birth right citizenship at the SC. This can only be considered an act of intimidation. Trump thinks he can sit there like a mafia don and get the outcome he wants. I’m betting he will lose. He’s already cemented himself as a loser and there is no longer any fear of him.

@FinanceLancelot Iran is allowing transit for countries which cut ties to the US, so if we were being conspiratorial I’d say it’s more likely a play for dissolving NATO and closing bases.

Footage aired by Al Jazeera from Tehran shows a child’s foot hanging from the side of a house after a U.S.-Israeli missile struck a residential unit.
