I'd expect if Hillary became a trader back in the day she could handle it. Trump does seems to have a high capacity for stress, if you accept that 3am Twitter rants are relaxing for him. If a guy is fairly psychopathic, he will experience less anxiety. Natural selection will ensure that there is someone who is better suited to a scenario. There is usually a physiological reason, Trump says he has superior genetics, it may be selective brain dysfunction giving him an edge. You are less stressed if you have limited capacity to feel shame. This man loved his family and seemed pretty relaxed, able to handle a helluva lot.. Trump and Escobar likely have similar brains. Also a politician and "man of the people" who only wanted to give to the poor. There are dissimilarities however the environment was not equal. I'd expect that Trump would have piled up the bodies had been in Escobar's shoes.
While Trump was campaigning, I was still on the fence who I wanted to become president. His history was certainly a concern, but what put me in his camp was his family. Most of his family are impressive individuals. I figured that he did something right in raising his kids. Even though Trump is a billionaire who has admitted working the system in several ways in his favor, he has a lot of valid points regarding our corrupt politicians and manipulative media. He has made some promises and is working to fulfill them. If he is successful, many will benefit from a stronger economy, less government waste, and politicians being held accountable for their actions. He has big and important ideas, but the media focuses on his personal short-comings that generally affect relatively few people. I believe over time more and more people will realize that Trump is for real. Please keep an open mind and may you find profitable trading ideas based on an functional U.S., assuming you are a trader.
Keep an open mind, but not so open your brains fall out. "I figured that he did something right in raising his kids." Ivanna raised the kids. https://nypost.com/2017/10/29/ivana-trump-donald-didnt-know-how-to-deal-with-our-kids/ He was a maybe billionaire, when you account for his debts who knows? I assume he 'spoke the words you were thinking'... yes, that is what populists do. Regarding the government, I believe the steal is on with Steve M and Goldman etc, it is an oligarch orgy. ""While you are watching the clown screw the pony, they're are breaking into II your car. Don't fall for their misdirection. Don't get baited by what Trump says. Always keep your eye on what they are doing." " https://www.forbes.com/sites/stanco...d-be-embarrassed-by-this-report/#2f3ec752738e Trump is 71, he has always been a showman and a nasty vengeful liar, narcissist & cheat. You are naive I believe. As long as Trump keeps puffed up you will think he is huge when he is empty air. That is is his talent, he can fool the average Joe in to chasing and never grasping. Trump voter with the concepts he will chase and not grasp. I'm being complimentary about the size of the dog. I trade Futures in the US, South America, Asia and Europe. A bunch of tired old men trading a few stocks are making money in an abnormal low volatility patch thanks to Steve & Co. Without this Trump would be eaten alive already. Now they have their tax breaks, maybe he will be. Old fool chancers grateful for a few easy bucks ready to bow and scrape to a bullshitter while not thinking about what is happening. I'm glad I'm not that sad. Time will tell.
Trump also impressed me with The Apprentice. Although the tag line appears to be “You’re fired,” from the few shows I was able to watch, the show was informative. Trump took a well-reasoned approached, asked appropiate questions, and made a decision based on the available information. This show has an international audience and probably has made an overall positive impact on how business is being done in the world. Of course I’m naive. Almost all of us are when faced with obscured and incomplete information. However, here I am, a former anti-Iraq war protester and former advocate of many Left leaning causes, now promoting Trump. My turn to the Right started when I fully read one of the petitions I was to promote. Basically it was transferring legal liability from a corporation to the State of Washington disguised as a cleanup petition. Then came Obama. I wondered where the massive influx of money came in to promote his new political career. Even Fox was promoting his IL Senate run initially. How Obama got the IL Senate seat is another interesting story of it’s own. There is big money that is promoting it’s interests to the direct detrement to the United States. Forced healthcare insurance or a penalty tax is crushing what can be saved by middle income citizens trying to recover financially from a severe recession. I’ve considered the possibility that Obama is a Republican in Democratic clothing on this because many of the large losses financial companies sustain through debt default is through the borrower going bankrupt because of medical expenses. In addition, the pharmaceutical and other healthcare industries benefit greatly from having a third party pay for their services. Much else what Obama did after that might be considered bread and circuses for the Democrats. In addition, I researched some of the available activism jobs and wondered the source of funding for them. Huge money was going into promoting causes that makes it difficult for U.S. businesses to compete in the world marketplace. A logical source of funding, therefore, would be from competing nations to the U.S. The Republican’s have many issues themselves. At least there appears to be some business acumen from their side. If this acumen manifests itself in a truly strong economy, the working class should benefit nicely. My hope is Trump will create political and legal incentives for businesses to focus on more sustainable and fair business practices.
That’s the cruelest online comment I ever heard. Thank you. Please either send more or show me where I have been led astray.
