President Trump’s use of tariffs to encourage manufacturing in the U.S. has caused a stir in the stock market and political circles. Some are concerned about potential insider trading within the White House, while others argue that Trump’s public posts gave everyone the same information. Meanwhile, legendary investor Warren Buffett advises against panic selling during market fluctuations, emphasizing the importance of understanding what you’re buying and holding onto stocks long-term. The article also discusses the political implications of tariffs for Michigan’s Governor Gretchen Whitmer, and the impact of tariffs on consumer confidence and spending habits.
The article discusses the possibility of the U.S. producing more of its own lumber instead of importing it from Canada. It also mentions a congressman’s repeated calls for President Trump’s impeachment and a confusing interaction during a town hall event with Senator Bernie Sanders. The author criticizes those who label his political views as crazy and ends by promoting new merchandise on his website.

It’s been a wild week on Wall Street, as they say, because President Trump has been leveraging the power of tariffs, hoping to bring manufacturing back to the United States, causing turbulence in the stock market, which is expecting even a downturn in the market, which is normal. And just one more thing for the Democrats to complain about. But they’re also upset that on Wednesday, there was a historic rise in the market. And some people bought the dip, including Marjorie Taylor Greene. And they’re very mad that she bought stocks that were hard hit by the tariffs during the market meltdown.

How concerned are you with this market fluctuation? And are you concerned that there could be members of the White House that are benefiting from it? Absolutely. I’m writing to the White House to demand who knew in advance that the president was going to once again flip-flop on tariffs. And are people cashing in? There is just all too much opportunity for people in the White House and the administration to be insider trading, and you can’t put it past them for a minute. So we’re going to try to find out. Oh, now the Democrats are concerned about insider trading after Nasty Pelosi made a fortune for decades because of her advanced knowledge about coming regulations and insider information by being on intelligence committees and have been resisting any calls to ban members of Congress from trading individual stocks to avoid those kinds of things.

But now they’re worried about it. But all you need to do to look for the supposed inside information was check out President Trump’s truth social feed where a few hours before he lifted most of the tariffs or put a pause on them for 90 days, he posted, quote, this is a great time to buy. But because people like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez who have no idea how the stock market works, I would be willing to bet she doesn’t even know the difference between a stock and a bond. So she is also very upset about people buying the dip.

Trump seems to be doing, you know, from tweeting people to buy stock and then later announcing his development on taxes. If people are pissed about insider trading here at the House, look at what’s happening at the White House right now and with the Republican Party. Do you think he knew what he was doing when he sent out that message about stocks before he made the announcement? The supporters are real genius. It sure seemed like he did. I don’t think that it was a coincidence. I don’t think that Trump just coincidentally said buy stocks and then shortly later made an announcement that dramatically inflated and dramatically raised a lot of these asset prices.

You’re a real genius too, lady. Some of the memes that have come out of this are quite hilarious, like this one showing the president of China reading Trump’s book, The Art of the Deal, to try to figure out what happened and it’s captured. Donard is a whole. He pranned our of this. And this one depicting him sending President Trump some DMs trying to negotiate. Rook, Donard, I have offered for you. Why you no respond, a whole. These are the kinds of memes that you would never see anybody on Fox News showing on air or sharing online or laughing about or anybody over the daily wire because there’s still way too and always will be way too politically correct because they’re a bunch of cowards.

But this is MAGA country and we’re making racist jokes great again. Here’s legendary investor Warren Buffett on the average moron. My word not his. He’s being very politically correct. The average moron who gets upset when the market has a correction and panics, especially those who are going to retire for 10, 20 or 30 years. And I would add those who don’t know anything about investing like a balanced portfolio. Those are just basically gambling by buying some of the popular stocks that they’ve seen skyrocket over the years. A lot of investors are told retail investors are told that they should have a certain percent of their portfolio in bonds.

Maybe they’re told 60, 40, maybe they’re told 70, 30 stocks to bonds. That’s something that you should do and that’s the safe way of doing it. What are they missing? Some people should not own stocks at all because they just get too upset with price fluctuations. If you’re going to do dumb things because your stock, a stock goes down, you shouldn’t own a stock at all. What are dumb things selling a stock? Selling a stock goes down. If you buy your house at $20,000 and somebody comes along the next day and says, I’ll pay you $15,000, you don’t sell it because the quotes $15,000.

You look at the house or whatever, baby. But some people are not actually emotionally or psychologically fit to own stocks, but I think more of them would be if you get educated on what you’re really buying, which is part of a business. And the longer you hold stocks, the less risky they become. Whereas the longer the maturity of a bond, the more risky it becomes. That’s right. Because if you look at the S&P 500 index over the last 30 years, you can notice a definite pattern. It goes up, it goes down. It goes up higher, it goes down.

It goes up higher, it goes down. It goes up, it goes down. You get the point. If you’ve read my previous videos from earlier this week, be sure to go check them out. A lot of data in there. I’m not going to repeat in this report. Michigan’s Democrat Governor Gretchen Whitmer is between a rock and a hard place because she needs the support of the auto workers in her state to get reelected, who support the tariffs, because obviously they want manufacturing jobs for automobiles to come back into the state, to stay in the state.

But she can’t support President Trump because she has Trump’s arrangement syndrome and has been drinking too much of her Kool-Aid. So she said this. I understand the motivation behind the tariffs. And I can tell you, here’s where President Trump and I do agree. We do need to make more stuff in America, more cars and ships, more steel and ships. We do need fair trade. Come on Botox Brain, you can say it. The tariffs are great. Just like Chuck Schumer used to say back in 2011 when he was railing against China, taking advantage of our trade policies.

But that was then, and this is now. Consumer confidence is down a record amount more than in a decade because consumers are saying if these tariffs are going to hit, I better not go on that vacation to see grandma. I better not buy that new car. I better not upgrade the groceries I’m buying. Upgrade groceries. No one is going to cancel their trip to see grandma because of the tariffs. But most Americans should buy less groceries or not upgrade them or supersize them or whatever the heck he was talking about.

Because the vast majority of Americans are morbidly and disgustingly obese and should immediately stop buying ice cream, cookies, cake, soda, all junk food and instead for the next year only eat chicken breast, carrots, broccoli, rice and grapefruit. Pigs like Dave Porkboy, Dave Portnoy, who’s a big sports ball expert who made like a hundred million dollars selling a sports website and now thinks he’s an expert on the stock market because he has more money than he knows what to do. So he gambles a lot on stocks. He filed for bankruptcy 20 years ago because of his gambling problems.

But now he likes to brag about all the millions of dollars that he’s throwing around. And of course, when the market took a dip, he lost a bunch of money. And so then he ran to CNN to say that he might just vote for the Democrats. Could you see yourself supporting Democrats? Yeah, absolutely. One thing about me, which drives me crazy, I vote for Trump. I support him. I was never like some crazy MAGA guy. I look at each candidate and I choose who I like. I think the left and a lot of even what they did with, I want to say hiding Biden’s mental state and not having a primary really drove me to the right.

So I am not somebody who would just strictly vote based on Republican or Democrat. I vote on the people running how I think they speak to me, the issues that are important to me. But yes, I will vote how I feel is the best interest of what I believe in. He believes in money. He worships money. That’s the only thing that is important to him. This guy is such a clown. He literally doesn’t even know how to pound in a nail. Here he is trying to fix the gate at one of his properties so that his little dog doesn’t run out in between the slats.

Oh boy. He’s wearing safety goggles too. They’re pounding a nail. But speaking of lumber, Chris Matthews, the old MSNBC host who got me too, I believe a couple years ago and then fired. He was back on the network and talking about Trump’s terrorists and said this, but there’s some listening. I watched on the evening news last night, one of the other networks and I watched the issue of lumber. Now you see, we get so much of our lumber, our two by fours from, from Canada. What’s where you get it from? Canada. We got a newsprint from up there for newspapers.

The fact is we get it. What are we going to do? Have more lumber made in the United States now? What is our plan now? Oh, we’re not going to import wood. So we’re going to make more wood. We’re going to create more wood. Is that it? Yes, marble mouth. We can cut more trees down here in the United States. If you’ve ever been on an airplane, then you know that there are vast regions of the country filled with forests. And while I do love the environment, I’m not saying that we just go and cut them all down.

Of course, we would replant the trees, but yes, Chris, there are trees in the United States we can use. Congressman Al Green, that Democrat Neanderthal looking guy from Texas is so upset about the tariffs that he’s calling for President Trump to be impeached as usual. He’s been calling for President Trump’s impeachment on a regular basis now for almost 10 years. Impeachment is imminent. The filing of articles of impeachment is imminent. He brought a poster of himself standing up to President Trump member when he got kicked out of President Trump’s address to Congress.

So he literally printed out a poster of that to bring along to show how strong he is and count down to impeachment. It’s eminent. We are currently in a countdown to impeachment. Now, those who know me know that I wouldn’t say this if I were not going to move on with it. He’s been moving on with it for almost a decade. Things are just as off the rails over on CNN. They’ve been hosting these town hall events with various members of Congress hoping to get people to actually tune in to that failing network.

And they hosted Bernie Sanders this week and this happened. Paul, we’re back with Senator Bernie Sanders. I want to introduce Grace Thomas. She’s a local civil rights attorney. She’s a Democrat. Great. They say them pronouns actually. Thank you. Oh, the Senator Sanders. Polling and turnout data indicates that Wait, what? Poor Bernie had no idea what she just said or what she just meant. And he’s wondering if he forgot to recharge the batteries on his hearing aid because hearing such nonsense come out of anybody’s mouth is crazy. And these are the kinds of people saying that we’re the crazy ones.

Hi, MAGA friend. I hope you’re doing okay today. Just a quick reminder of something I know you know in your heart that you’re a loaded dick. You should be institutionalized. MAGA is a cult. You are welcome to rejoin the rest of us in the real world. Anytime you want to come back, be well. I would rather live on a deserted island with nothing but sand to eat for the rest of however long my life would be, than be within 50 miles of you. And now that spring is here and summer is just around the corner.
