Since taking office I have been very strict on Commercial Aviation. Good news - it was reported that there were Zero deaths in 2017, the best and safest year on record!

He is egocentric to the extent of not even needing a hand in something to take credit for it. The above tweet would look like a joke coming from anyone else but from Trump? He was dead serious. And he certainly has implied that he deserves full credit for gains in the stock market. Yes, he really is that narcissistic.

Great give him full credit now and if it crashes (I believe we'll have a severe correction) give him all the blame. He's a big boy.

Have you not been paying attention to how he reacts to even the slightest criticism?

Have you, "Loser Hog88"?*

Oh poor baby! Did Trump take credit for something? Everyone knows this current atmosphere of optimism did not come from Trumps administration, must have been the previous administration? No, I think it was the current administration that has caused this optimism and favorable conditions for the stock market to reach ALLTIME highs. What do you think would happen to the market if Trump resigned and Obama was put in his place? To obvious?

Where was the Dow when Obama took office? Where was the Dow when Obama left office?

My point was Trump is egocentric. Not that he takes credit for things which he had little to do with... he takes credit for things which he had nothing to do with.

I will help you:

January 23, 2009: 8,077.56
January 20, 2017: 19,827.25

Of course, Trump called these gains a "bubble" until the 2016 election.

Why don't you enlighten us?

I'm curious as to what you guys think.

If you contend that they are biased to the left, you must have contemplated why that would be.

I say they are not biased to the left, so there is nothing for me to contemplate.

All that says is that they realize they are being slow played. If the Nunes memo is released and action taken before the release of the democratic response, then that is an admission of guilt.

Just because you keep saying this over and over and over... doesn't make it true.

With most people, I would agree. And if it were just a few times over the course of his first year, I would agree.

I just think that given his position and the frequency with which he seems to overreact to the criticism he must take as a result of being in that position, it is alarming how much he seems unable to tolerate it.

A good buddy of mine in law school married a woman here in town and she has run off many of his friends and other couples because she has no filter. She retaliates against the slightest point against her by bludgeoning whoever said it.

Example, we are at a restaurant. Three couples. She complains the restaurant is cold. Someone mutters even half jokingly "Kim, you always think its too cold." Kim goes full assault and basically screams, "You should shut up! You are fat and that is why it doesn't feel cold to you!"

We all know people a bit like this, but she is REALLY over the top with it. Remember the old saying don't bring a a knife to a gun fight? She brings a thermonuclear weapon to a spitball fight.

There is something wrong with her inability to let even the slightest criticism just go. Same with Trump. He can't take it. He feels threatened by everything and every one. If he weren't running the country I wouldn't care. But its now way past just an amusing character quirk at this point.

A fine article... read it if you're brainwashed about Trump/Mueller.

I agree with author... Trump will not be questioned by Mueller, rather Trump will have him fired. Trump will likely can Rosenstein then replacement(s) will do the deed.

Red alert warning: Trump may fire Mueller soon | TheHill

Probably true. Many have said, from both sides of the aisle, that firing Mueller would be the end of Trump. His firing would be an admission of guilt by Trump, but we will see how many people stay true to their word.

We can backtest what-if scenarios and analyze certain datapoints in history until we are blue in the face, to tell us different picture we want to see, don't want to see or are surprised to see.

From an former constituent of mine on Wall Street (I was actually on Park Ave in Midtown, not a 'Wall Street' guy...lol), who loathe's Trump politically, however he doesn't allow it to cloud his judgement with the market(s) and economy:

"Obama in a million years could never have accomplished this. He was a re-regulator, not a de-regulator, which matched up precisely with what the country’s mood demanded at the time of his inauguration in 2008. Hillary’s tax cut, if ever such a thing had been proposed, would never have approached the brazen nature of this one, despite how Corporatist she was always accused of having been.

No, what’s happening now and what is to come is genuine Trump. For better (today), and then eventually for worse (who knows when, but there’s always a when).

You gotta hand it to him, he’s remade the world in which we live in under 12 months’ time. It’s undeniable."---

Do your own research and stop regurgitating everything they feed you.

Hilarious. Don't get angry with me because you can't support your own biases.

I don't think they do have a left leaning bias. You said they do but can't answer why that would be. That should give you pause.
