Donald Trump 2019

Anyone know of an online chronological list of all the ridiculous shit Trump and his hatchlings have done or been involved in since Jan 2017?  I found one that goes to Oct 2018, but whoever was keeping that updated probably realized it was a futile effort and stopped.

DJ's schedule for Monday is less golf-friendly. In the morning he will be presenting the Medal of Valor (pre-credentialed press) and then a little later there is a press briefing with Mark Morgan, the ACTING Commissioner of Customs and Border Protection.

This evening at 6:30/7:00, DJ will be speaking at the Keep America Great Rally/DJ Political Rally. The first, at 6:30 is once again for pre-credentialed press.

Long day for DJ. I don't know how the press pools work. It seems to me, however, the WH pulls press passes frequently when they disapprove of a media, journalists, etc. What a great way to restrict access and control the narrative.

For they were thieves not only of wages but of honor.” --Sinclair Lewis, It Can't Happen Here.

Keeping score here.

Attacked a black musician, a black reporter, and the musician's wife.

Oh, and this from a bit ago.  

This coming from a man who signed off on the checks he paid out to silence a porn star he raw-dogged while his 3rd wife was at home with their newborn.

"In an attempt to quantify the impact of Trump’s tweets on the bond market, J.P. Morgan devised a “Volfefe Index” to analyze how the president’s tweets are influencing volatility in U.S. interest rates."

Donald Trump is tweeting more and it’s affecting the bond market.

In fact, the president’s market-moving tweets ballooned in August as he hammered China on trade and went after the Federal Reserve on interest rates.

In an attempt to quantify the impact of Trump’s tweets on the bond market, J.P. Morgan devised a “Volfefe Index” to analyze how the president’s tweets are influencing volatility in U.S. interest rates.

J.P. Morgan found that the index, named after Trump’s infamous and still mysterious “covfefe” tweet, explains a measurable fraction of the moves in implied rate volatility for 2-year and 5-year Treasurys.

“This makes rough sense as much of the president’s tweets have been focused on the Federal Reserve, and as trade tensions are broadly seen as, first and foremost, impactful on near-term economic performance and, likewise, the Fed’s reaction to such developments,” wrote the authors of the J.P. Morgan report.

Trump’s market-moving messages most often address trade and monetary policy, with key words including “China,” “billion” and “products.” These tweets are increasingly less likely to receive favorable responses, such as likes or retweets, from the president’s followers.

Trump’s Twitter habits
Since his election in 2016, Trump has averaged more than 10 tweets a day to his nearly 64 million followers —roughly 14,000 total over that period associated with his personal account, of which more than 10,000 occurred after the 2017 inauguration.

Out of about 4,000 non-retweets occurring during market hours from 2018 to the present, only 146 moved the market.

Most of Trump’s tweets come around noon to 2:00 pm, with a 1:00 pm tweet roughly three times as likely to arrive at any other hour of the afternoon or evening, according to J.P. Morgan’s report.

Trump’s 3:00 am tweets are also more common than 3:00 pm tweets, which can be a nuisance for U.S. rates markets, since overnight market depth tends to be thin.Trump is presumably asleep from 5:00 am to 10:00 am, according to the report, since there’s a lull in tweeting activity during that time.

Days when Trump tweets a lot are also associated with negative stock market returns, according to Bank of America Merrill Lynch.

While Trump’s twitter activity can disrupt markets with sudden attacks on China trade or the Federal Reserve, he has still been good for the stock market overall. The Dow is up 42% since the 2016 presidential election and 31% since his inauguration.

“Trade talk, political campaigning and tweets have contributed to volatility, from China to Fed policy to tax policy,” wrote the brokerage’s chief equity strategist Savita Subramanian.

“And new tariffs announced in August indicate downside risk to our 2019/20 EPS growth forecasts of +2%/+7%, where indirect impacts from hits to corporate or consumer confidence could be significant.”

He cheated with a porn star. He really want to start that fight?

Of fucking course he does, because the porn star allegations are fake news. This dude is the ultimate bullshit artist, and has always and will always get away with it.

Someone posted an interview the other day with some Fox News rube who had no idea Charlottesville happened and no idea white supremacy organizations were increasing.

That’s more insane than normal.   I’m pretty sure FDR, George Washington, and plenty of others are laughing.  

He must be scared about something coming out, to rally his base like that.  

Military auditing the Turnberry resort stays?

Looming government shutdown?

Epstein?

Impeachment?

Deutsche Bank settling with the SEC for the hiring of relatives of public officials in China and Russia?

Stressed about the upcoming rally?

From 2014...

http://www.scotlandnow.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/donald-trump-touches-down-scotland-4627432

DONALD TRUMP arrived in Scotland this morning to announce his official partnership with Glasgow Prestwick Airport.

The US tycoon has pledged to make Prestwick Airport "really successful" as he revealed a partnership with the Scottish Government-owned hub.

The Trump Organisation has chosen Prestwick to service the nearby Trump Turnberryresort, in which the businessman plans to invest £250 million.

The airport will be the Scottish base for all Trump Aviation Operations, including Mr Trump's private Boeing 757 and Sikorsky 76B helicopter.

Well of course, DJ. Because the CURRENT Senator from 'The' South Carolina was away hanging with his Flaming Racist friend, and when it was discovered, the tweet was deleted. I hope his political career is OVER!

 

Careful Linthey, if you get too close to that encephalitic head you'll wind up one of its moons.
