Well, you should probably ask someone who actually said that about the stock market. He is in bed with the crooks who run that game, after all.

I am of the opinion that the government ought to be there to protect the people from the greed of corporate entities, among other things, not be a part of the greed game itself.

Bit of hyperbole sure, but probably not far off the mark.

He is perceived as a pro-business president (truth doesn't matter that's a fairly strong perception), Democrats have said they would roll back his tax cuts, and increase taxes pretty much across the board.

It very well could cause a run, not just because he was impeached but the combination of rolling things back, going after the 1%, making businesses pay their share etc... when you look at the DNC talking points it would be a short jump to thinking an anti-business agenda would hit and that would have a negative influence on profits so it would make sense (to a lot of people) to move their money to something more secure.

Beware the Narcissistic Sociopath

Just pointing it out....
Spooky isn't it. Sacks his staff regularly doesn't he??? "Throws away his Toys"...

More quotes from the article:

A driven quest for power. If a narcissistic sociopath cares about anything other than himself, it is destructive power and control over people.

Behaviours that seek love and admiration. To be sure, this isn't needy love. It's not even emotional love. It's superficial. A narcissistic sociopath sees love and admiration as power tools to manipulate and dominate (Do Sociopaths Even Have Feelings?).

No apologies, no guilt, no remorse under any circumstance. A sociopathic narcissist believes that she is a gift to the world who makes it richer and more colorful. Therefore, her/his calculated, even cruel actions are always justified.

Invincibility. The narcissistic variety of sociopath believes he is indomitable. Even punishment and prison can't stop him. They're merely part of the game.

Wholly self-serving. The needs and wants of others are insignificant and undeserving of consideration.

Act as the producer, director, and only actor of his own show. The narcissistic sociopath casts people in roles that increase his power and sense of importance and when bored, casts them aside.

I'll just leave this here

Why? California is a net contributor to the Treasury. One of only ten states to do so.

I think what we've seen in South Africa is a preview of what they'd try (but fail) to accomplish here as well. Theft of private land/property under threat or actual use of force, rolling back border protections preventing illegal immigration, several federal agencies outright abolished (instead of just cleaned out) and a much larger/much more invasive government

We can't afford to stay home in the mid terms

YES

Essentially the libertarian "nightwatchman state"

The government would exist as it was intended: to upholds the rights of citizens, fight wars, enforce contracts/resolve disputes and otherwise carry out its Constitutionally allocated powers along with its Constitutional duties (its duties to us are actually far more numerous than its powers)

Well he is probably correct in that an impeachment would create instability on the market and it probably would happen no matter who it was.

Instability is not a crash though. The guy is so deluded it's not even funny and anyone who thinks it would crash the market needs to hand in their sanity card.

The S&P is at what they call a double top having reached the high of last January again.
To be honest the reason I'm responding on this thread is that I was a victim of the 1987 stock market crash.
I was working for one of the Boston Rte 128 companies that offered an employee stock purchase program.
Went with the maximum contribution percentage to buy the stock but was trapped later in the year and couldn't sell till after the day of the crash. Since then I get PTSD holding stock shares.

If the thread was about Bill Clinton and the deception of women for his self gratification I probably would not have clicked even though there were some valid issues.

Most people that have invested in the stock market more recently have done very well for themselves, so there is little worry about a crash. The impeachment menu option which only a select minority chose to respond to or even read is likely going to just loop around without any conclusive responses till the media drops the story for something else.

Completely agree. Not to mention real investors already know the score on what a possible impeachment could mean with respect to capitalization, and will simply seek the safe havens and let their portfolios ride it out while searching for great buys.

Sure - much better to be blindsided. Not his fault you can't control your fears, the sky has been falling for your kind ever since he took office.

Doesn't it means if looses mid term election then also market will crash. We got new date for systematic new money order arrivals. This will trigger market crash on the day he looses mid term election.

I do not remember hearing of Obama suggesting that action against him would result in market collapse.



Impeachment of a President would ave serious impact to the market, no matter who was President, do you not agree? My point was Obama was just as Narcissistic, and in Trump's case he been a billionaire a long time so one might expect that. Obama was Narcissistic with "community organizer" as his big skill set...lol


All that skill, or lack of, suggests these statements from him just might be narcissistic...lol


“I think that I’m a better speechwriter than my speechwriters,” Mr. Obama told Patrick Gaspard, his political director, at the start of the 2008 campaign, according to The New Yorker. “I know more about policies on any particular issue than my policy directors. And I’ll tell you right now that I’m going to think I’m a better political director than my political director.”

"I’m a better intelligence briefer than my intelligence briefers"



so on and so on...

US President Donald Trump has responded to speculation that he might be impeached by warning that any such move would damage the economy.
"If I ever got impeached, I think the market would crash," he said in an interview with Fox & Friends.

He was speaking after Michael Cohen, his ex-lawyer, pleaded guilty to violating election laws, and said he had been directed to do so by Mr Trump.
Mr Trump has rarely spoken about the prospect of being impeached.

..snip...

"I think everybody would be very poor," Mr Trump told Fox and Friends.
Pointing to his head, he explained: "Without this thinking you would see, you would see numbers that you wouldn't believe in reverse."


For posterity
Trump said that !!

oh yah like there was no instability when Al Gore refused to graciously accept defeat by Bush in 2000. I remember it well. But of course that wasn't a crash or anything 🙄
