Losses of over a billion dollars in a decade....and no one cares.

Why should we?  You know how many wealthy people lost a shit ton of (theoretical) money over that time period?

OJ Simpson?

Honestly, 1985-1995 wasn't much of a 'Run for the hills the economy isa crashing!!" era, lets not make it out like it was. 91-92 there was a recession, fairly mild one but the timing of it, added with 12 years of Reagan/Bush Presidency it was time for people to choose a new direction. It was not, however, a time where everyone lost everything. Especially the rich.

I may be mistaken but prove me wrong by naming names of those who were wiped out.

They just never care about anything anymore. All the outrage during Obama but nothing matters anymore. Nothing is bad, everything is good.

You understand wealth vs cash, right?  Losing money on paper is just that.  Why do we care what he lost?  Wasn't he a Democrat at that point?

Why bother mentioning the bit about him being a democrat at that time...and then in the next post pretend you didn't?

You don't care about anything. You're just as big a shit thrower as anyone.

You're being willfully obtuse me thinks.

I mean fer chrissake, the news undermines Trump's entire platform for the most part. But MAGA peeps are like....eh, what's the big deal?

Propaganda, tribalism and the cult of personality is getting downright scary with you guys.

How's those tariffs working out for everybody? lol, jesus.

If Obama did this, they'd call it "socialism" for bailing out the farmers and additional taxation on Americans via tariffs on China. Fox news would run it 24/7.

What?  Pretend I didn't?   Mitch, turn the conspiracy switch off dude.  You're losing it.

I dont care because it doesn't matter.  You want so badly for every little thing to matter and it just doesn't.
