    This I disagree with. Dest has proven he can trade, doing his thing, and I have no doubt his journals are real money. It's one of the few on here, who have provided journal logs, that I feel this way about.

    As for Trump's business acumen? Based on interviews I've read from former contractors for him, Orange's style makes me think that if he owned a place with a drive-thu, he'd F you. (Reference to that funny bit from Joe Pesci in one of the Lethal Weapon movies.)

    ok fine... benefit of the doubt.. np..

    .. from former contractors ... again that is just noise, no? the only way to keep score is profit and net worth.... all other stuff is just hear say.... ok 'he'd F you'... even if that is true, that is the kind of president I want, to deal with China and whatever other country because under Obama we have been F'ed for too long! business can NOT always be win win... clearly the deals Obama cut were win-lose deals, with the US holding the short ends... great to have someone who knows how to win... and we have been winning.

    Tax year 2025 is gonna' suck for the majority of we little yeoman taxpayers. Trump did it for himself to make business love him, not us little guys.

    Speaking of genius, he would have been much richer if he just invested that $800 million in S&P500. Probably would have saved many people's life whom he destroyed with his shenanigans like Trump University.

    https://www.cnbc.com/2018/10/02/trump-forbes-400-spot-tumbles-as-net-worth-declines.html

    "The president’s net worth stands at $3.1 billion, down from $4.5 billion in 2015, Forbes said. As a result, Trump has tumbled down the Forbes 400 list, the latest edition of which will be published in full Wednesday."

    So he lost about 25% since 2015, where as SPX doubled. Such a genius

    Well, we're currently being invaded by a 3rd world country and bending over backwards to accommodate...should not take long for the US to assimilate to their culture.

    ok if you like to interpret that way...

    but to me, the expiring part - the individual tax, is only a nice-to-have... the big item of the tax reform bill was the PERMANENT cut on corporate tax, that is the big deal to make America more competitive globally as our rates were too high!

    I have participated in multiple global projects with tax-sheltering being the main goals... set up a shell in low tax country, and move profit there.. while leaving the US sales branch with only the revenue but very little profit to pay tax on.... it's an amazing scheme and not difficult to pull off... say you drive by all those huge distribution centers in central Pennsylvania, the goods sitting there, ready to be sold to US consumers, are actually legally owned by companies registered in Swiss, Taiwan, etc :)....
