Why have Republicans stopped bragging about the stock market?

[Bn2f]

As I said don’t care who sits in office.

I care. Others do too. It is just one of the many metrics conscientious voters use as a gauge. Are you an American? Who did you vote for and why?

 

[RoryN]

@RoryN do u think I care

Of course you do.

Keep crying.

 

[Biglibido99]

Republicans don't talk about the Constitution much anymore either. They're castrated

first one ball, then the other - painful experience for the eunuchs

Ok so right off you’re pissing me off.

You ask others of honesty but can’t/fail to give the same respect to others!

I realize that he can pretend he's a woman all that he wants, but I'm not calling him Ann. I will call him Mann from time to time though.

The point stands, that he won't admit to being a republican, just like every other "not republican" on this board.

How about us Independents, who vote for the person, and not the party?

[ChicagoR85]

Of course you do.

Have you ever voted for any person to the left of Mike Johnson? If not, then your "independent" status is meaningless.

@Bn2f do I care you are pissed off!

I just want to wait for you and your colleagues(( who are scared to invest based on who is office…)) . At the end of Trump presidency!

I know I will be laughing my way to the bank.

And the rest of you will be sitting in cash! Have inflation eat and the lost returns eat away your purchasing power!

I am sure at that point you will have republicans or Trump To blame how senior living is so expensive or groceries cost too much !

Enough time spent between you morons!

Lol. I gave you the facts. You are not laughing your way to the bank unless you too are doing insider trading. The average conservative investor does better economically by backing a democrat. Thank you for proving that I can sniff out a fraudster poser - though it’s not hard to do or much of a brag seeing through maga idiots.

Congresswoman Dr. Kim Schrier, of Washington state. Our state's attorney general. That's just this past general election. I've NEVER voted straight party line. Have yoy?

The maga twist on my 401k is doing just fine.

Let me tell you why I'm not overly concerned. You see all through high school, I had this friend, Mike. His older brother, Jeff, started a company in Seattle in 1983. When he took it public on the late 80's, I managed to scrape together some money to buy a few hundred shares at $30, or so. The stock is now at $975.00 pet share, and his little company is the 3rd largest retailer in this country, and the 6th largest in the world. Closing in on 900 warehouses and still growing. Ever shop at Costco? If you do, thank you.

If you are going to retire tomorrow then yes you are down! That’s why you plan and have emergency fund.
