He’s not chickening out. He is manipulating the stock market in order for him, his family and his billionaire friends to profit. The evidence is as clear as the trades that have been made at super high volumes literally 15 minutes prior to his announcements. The man is a lowlife crook nothing more.
Here’s how it works with chicken shits like Donald Trump and he has a chicken shit. I know the type. Guys like Donald Trump have a gorilla mouth and a parakeet ass. They can’t back it up when they are too chickenshit to even try to back it up.
Donald Trump had to be put into rich boy military school because his father probably knew that if he went to public school he would’ve gotten his ass kicked on a daily basis or he would’ve been the pussy that he was born to be.
It was a different time back then and schools didn’t have this no tolerance bullshit when it came to a couple of guys throwing hands at each other.
Trump said today that he was going to bomb around back into the Stone Age. He threatened to bomb all of their desalinization plants, power generation facilities and bridges. Those are war crimes and let’s see if Donald doesn’t go full chickenshit on that. He might figure out a way to try to blame it on somebody else but he came right out and said he was gonna do that so the buck will stop with that orange turd.
This is spot on. He thinks, he does, he sees, re falls back. Its all smoke and mirrors and we have one of two choices. Either he is deeply flawed and just trying things on to see if they fit, or he is deeply flawed and someone around him (Wiles, Miller et al) tries things on to see if they fit. Neither is a good course and both are wildly dangerous. It could also be a third thing as stated by another commentator. Hes signaling his billionaire buddies and manipulating markets fir their benefit. All I know is at this juncture we are cooked.
I don't think it's so much strategy or incompetence, but more arrogance & delusion - he thinks he actually runs the whole world, what he says goes & he can do whatever he wants, then finds out that he can't or it didn't work out like he thought it would. Example: he thought he could attack Iran & they'd immediately fold, & that would be that. Since that didn't happen, he's now trying to manipulate everything he can, including the stock market ... anything for a buck.
Another side of this is: insider trading. He and those close to him know that his announcement will affect the stock market. They invest accordingly and then reverse their action just before he anounces his reversal of plans.
No taco zeese time, OrangeMan. The die is cast I fear. Iran ridicules him, needling him, daring him into an irrational response. None so dangerous as a schoolyard bully w/ his back against the wall. Esp. this one
Speaking as someone who does not like surprises and likes things to just work, I have met people who prefer to deal with crisis, and will deliberately not take precautions to avoid the chaos.
Trump has never studied. Never learned any skill, other than 'handling people'. Has the unearned confidence born of ignorance, incompetence and who has never suffered real consequences.
PLUS, Trump has learned the chaos he generates lets him get away with a lot of his crimes, mainly as distractions both during and after the crime.
In short, it seems to have worked for him, but of course the consequences still hit, mainly people who Trump does not really care about, which means everyone other than himself.
This results in a country in decline, which lowers his polling numbers, which triggers his panic fear of being removed from office and going to jail.
So Trump does what he has always done. Attack, Deny, Deflect, Vengeance, Intimidate, Throw tantrums and demand his minions solve his problems for him.
Noeme and Bondi failed him, despite / due to following his orders. He will flail, he will panic, he will try to break every rule, use every lever of power he can pretend he has.
Some call what he is doing the President's Reality TV Show; he displays behavior that is learned and ingrained in him, and thus gets money and pleasure from being the ultimate manipulator of people, institutions, governments, the world!! This makes sense to me, and I also think that there is impulsivity, mental incapacity, and what seems like true sociopathy/psychopathy all mixed in. What a mess! The press is a big part of this mess too, as they report every latest comment of his and so participate (knowingly or unknowingly) in his game of lies, confusion, and manipulation. I personally think that he believes his own lies and so is out of touch with reality most of the time. And dementia just adds to to this.
Deranged Don’s decisions and plans fall apart because he is an ignorant moron. He has no concept of reality; he cannot negotiate; he is clueless about economics, regulations, business, taxes, finances, and laws; he doesn’t understand science or energy production or the environment or conservation; and he’s out of touch with most of the issues that are important to Americans. When he operated in the world of private business, his army of corrupt lawyers would run interference for him with countless lawsuits and appeals (and bribery, I’m sure) so he could get away with multiple bankruptcies, bad credit, unpaid loans, falsifying records, insurance fraud, code violations, and cheating on his taxes. The attitude of “So what are you going to do, sue me?” eventually fails when you are president of this country.
He has done nothing but cause chaos for most Americans, while constantly stating he has done an amazing job. This is the first President in American History on every level.
Basically he doesn’t know what he’s doing…besides that I don’t believe he is the one calling the shots.
sulking, pouting
Catherine-how much of this can we take? I watch Ed Felix here!
At least I laugh in the face of fear & loathing!

Incompetent?
He has stolen billions from the taxpayers. Denver Riggleman..Substack!
Come on people.
This is how he gets the stock market to fluctuate and that lets people know when to invest and when to sell
DT is in a job over his head, he is feeding his way through false pretend! It’s all about his own ego!

You ask Why TACO:
Why all impulse, and only reactive.

He needs to stop rehashing The Apprentice and star in The Biggest Loser. As a contestant.
