    The real good weapons are those nobody speaks about.
    Russia showed a few weeks ago a robot that could replace soldiers... till somebody found out that it was not a robot at all but a soldier with a costume. Russia has a full army of people that continuous post on all social media how good the Russian army is.

    I compare it to rich people. Real rich people stay low profile, fake ones show their richess everywhere on the social media.

    Russia threatened a few years ago (Ukraine crisis) to stop delivering gas to Europe. He actually never did it as it would hurt Russia far more the Europe.
    Putin is bluffing the whole time.

    I advice you to read this article carefully to understand who Putin is:

    Trump is (till today) in a open conflict with:
    • Congress
    • The FED
    • Minister of Defense of the US
    • China
    • EU
    • WTO
    • ...

    But for the rest everything goes well. ROFLMAO.

    He likes to show off with record breaking things "he achieved"...

    Like the evolution of the financial markets the last months? No, only the positive records are are a result from his "leadership", the negative ones are always caused by others. Or they are fake news!

    But wait! There’s more. The Congressional Budget Office estimates the interest payments will surpass Medicaid costs within 18 months and that they will exceed all national defense spending by 2023.

    By 2025, the CBO figures interest costs will surge past the combined totals of all non-defense discretionary programs together, including funding for national parks, scientific research, health care, education, the court system and infrastructure.

    The source told CNBC that the administration was “determined” to boost equities which have become a key barometer of Trump’s “success”, at least in the president’s own view.

    The investor was said to tell the official to tell the president to end his criticism of Powell on Twitter, stop administration turnover and reach a trade deal with China in order to help markets.

    interest rates still 2.5%; quit your cryin'. If Trump can't make the country work on 2.5% mortgage, then it's just further confirmation he's a fraud

    Fed Chairman Powell met with Trump for an ‘informal dinner’ to discuss the economy
    Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell and Vice Chair Richard Clarida had dinner on Monday with President Donald Trump and Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin at the White House, according to a statement from the Fed.

    The central bank said it was an “informal” dinner and that Powell did not discuss specific expectations for monetary policy.
