    Like you said, Donkey Face said that anyone who inquires about a missed social security payment is likely a fraudster. No, people are living hand to mouth on that payment! Maybe "Donkey Brain" is more appropriate!

    Mike, I don't understand where the gov spending deposits can go while Gov is at the Debt Ceiling and when there aren't any tax deadlines to drain them, which there haven't been much of the time. What exactly are the consequences? No bank lending? Are there any others?

  3. This happens when you call anyone who disagrees with you an idiot. (not persuasive) You called Musk an idiot and Lutnick a donkey face. There's nothing wrong with
    calling him a donkey face if you didn't take him out of context. That's the issue. He was on an hour and 44-minute podcast, and you picked a part of
    the podcast that was blown out of proportion by MSNBC (Rachel Maddow ). They were talking about cutting waste, fraud, and abuse, which led to how
    do you know where the most fraud is ( buy those who complain the most ). This was USAID – he then said it's not my 94 year old mother in law who
    missed a payment. Who's being dishonest here?

  4. Some of the Trump supporters have become a cult of some type.

  5. Keep up the work.

  6. I met a traveler from a distant land

    Who said: "Two vast and trunkless legs of stone

    Stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand,

    Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown,

    And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,

    Tell that its sculptor well those passions read

    Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,

    The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed.

    And on the pedestal, these words appear:

    "My name is Trump, king of kings;

    Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"

    Nothing beside remains. Round the decay

    Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare,

    The lone and level sands stretch far away.

    You see how crazy these trump people are?
    Like a cult..and trump will ultimately disappoint these folks
    I trade stocks so I appreciate your insights.

  8. Mike, as the old saying goes, “It takes all kinds”. That being said, I, personally, continue to be amazed at how people act and what they do on a daily basis also!

  9. Self-sabotage

    Many young people today overreactive and taught to be cult-like. They cannot handle anything that strays from whatever they think

  11. @punch_bowl_turd3005

    ppI are stupid. you could have been a harris supporter and i could careless, i'd still tune in.

  12. Aw, you hurt his little feelings

  13. @oliverbanks9976

    That's hilarious. I don't have to agree with you 100% on politics to appreciate what you have to say.

  14. Some people have no sense of humour.

  15. Man for not knowing someone you sure did make a lot of assumptions. Pretty big reaction over a comment….Fascinating

  16. Don't try to post comments on the WSJ website – you get roasted by nutcases for making the most sensible observation imaginable!

  17. I don't agree with all that you say, at times it can come across as that annoying guy….however I can't just kick you away because your knowledge is gold! Keep doing you, perhaps you need to put a disclaimer. Yes I will have an opinion, doesn't take away from my information.

  18. Thats funny. Let him go Mike. It's so much more than MMT. It's not for everyone.

  19. @jamesclapp2582

    He’s gonna have a hard time finding an MMT mentor who is sympathetic to Donkey Face.
