I deleted because I don't want to contribute to division. I'm a pretty moderate guy so I feel the answer is usually in the middle somewhere. If you ever want to hear honest opinions about how a "Trumper"(this is maybe not the best label, but since I'm voting for him why not) feels about something, you can ask. I guarantee you that on most things it's probably a matter of perception vs reality.

Solid post

I appreciate the conversation and respect your post. 🤝

Sure and if you sold at the peaks and bought the inverse and repurchased at the lows at the end of March your 401K would have doubled in 4 Months.

What does your Alpha or your financial advisor’s Alpha have to do with the Fed bailing out the richest 1% of the world and destroying free market capitalism ?

I was mainly trolling the response of why I should be angry. I figured the Big Papi gif would give that away.

I get all of that, as do I understand it's going to go down and back up again, as it always has since I started an account well over a decade ago. I also understand that it doesn't tell the whole story because I kept putting money into the account every paycheck at normal levels, and also have had my company match stay the same.

good call on the peak and inverse.

I missed both by a few days/weeks myself.

all in all, no 401k here. all personal investment.

i couldn't have imagined I'd be where I'm at today 6 months ago, much less 4 years ago.

I think your confusing me with a liberal?

Not the case, just dislike Trump greatly. And i like Obama.

Guy saved the auto and housing industry.
I disagreed with his policies at times, as I agree with trump's policies at times.

It's a matter of decency and respect.

Seriously, when your parents are embarrassed over you being a trumper, it should really be an eye opener.

They probably cant figure out what went wrong?

The conversations between them and other family members must be hilarious. The shame, Tip toeing around your baby bunker feelings. Your love for hate.

They probably warn everyone to not bring it up. So you dont look like a racist loser. They make fun of you behind your back.

Not confusing you with anyone, but sure sounds like he broke you to. I think Obama set this country on a course for no return, and honestly, so did Bush 1 & 2 as well as Clinton. The difference between us is I would still shake Obama’s hand if we met, you would have a meltdown around Trump, so don’t talk to me about decency and respect. Your comments about my family are pretty funny because they will be the tens of millions in silent majority voters for Trump. But continue on.

For has much as you hate Trump, your rhetoric is remarkably similar in nature.

I'm angry and fire back. Sometimes I fire first.

But, I'm not the president of the united states.

That position needs to be someone who is NOT like me.

Someone reasonable- someone that brings Americans together. I could careless if it's a democratic party or Republican party that wins most elections.

Wish both sides would run different candidates.

You respect obama , so enjoy your hand shake.

I think we both want me to NOT continue on .....

Right?

I'm not personally attacking you nor have I.

I appreciate your hockey opinions and do not want to ruin future Sabres conversations.

The situation was definitely unusual, as it did look like the older guy was doing something with his phone to both officers.

Regardless, I'm not arguing with you:

To be clear.
I voted for Trump and will proudly do so once again.
When you call Trumpers as "A$$holes", you are calling me one.
I take offence to it, period.
No, I don't think Trump is perfect...far, far from it infact.
I do believe in and agree with his policies however, and that is good enough for me.
The country us rightfully re-opening for business...even the Democratic strongholds as they realize to not do so will make them look even more foolish. And while the raw number of Covid-19 positive cases have gone up recently...it is heavily tied to significantly higher numbers of daily testing...which should be expected. In short, there is absolutely no reason in most cases not to open.
The protesters, looters and rioters did not observe social distancing nor wore masks until very recently. We can expect some uptick in Covid-19 cases...maybe that his the cleansing needed.

All I’m saying that is that just because someone despises Trump the person doesn’t necessarily mean they all favour the Democratic Party or agree with all of their ideologies.

Anyone with a Robinhood account at this point is making money in the markets the past month.

I could of shorted a week earlier and made life changing profits. I also didn’t stop shorting till after the first week of April so I gave some 15% back.

I also wouldn’t advise people to buy speculative products like that with every dollar in their 401K either.

The point I was honestly trying to make is that I don’t think stock market performance is a valid measure, or perhaps I should say perfect correlation, of how well a president or political party is doing.

Dave Pourtnoy has outperformed Warren Buffet this year of all people. Technical analysis and fundamental analysis are skills that can be learned that’s all.

I have been watching more Barstool content on Youtube during this pandemic than I probably have in my entire life prior.

Seriously what law abiding hard working CitiZEN of the US would be embarrassed by their child being a Trump Supporter, but totally fine with whatever moronic agenda the liberals are pushing? I'm embarrassed. How bout you wake the eff up and start pulling your weight around here?

Living expense free, working OT like a mad man, while reinvesting every penny of my net worth and earning additional income in the markets.

My girlfriend and I are house shopping and I’ll be living in my own house shortly after my 25th birthday.

I can afford to rent, but why pay someone else’s mortgage. Instead I can invest in assets instead of liabilities.

I appreciate your concern though.

Are you seriously ok with trump bashing Gugino this morning? He showed no compassion.

Gugino is seriously hurt and the president of the united states is tweeting conspiracy theories.

Just when you think he can't say/Tweet something any worse/dumber, he goes and does it again. He's a joke...an embarrassment of a human being. I wonder what stupid thing he'll say next ?

As someone who stays away from politics ...... If you block or don’t listen to what he says. Your life will improve tremendously.

Way more to life than crying about a stupid tweet.

Take politics / trump away from the video ....

Gugino who got pushed ...... was barely pushed and went down like a tree. Use some common sense. I could find 100 other shoves that was way way worse. Watch the replay ..... he was so uncoordinated he didn’t even brace himself.

The guy should’ve been a smarter protester and not on the front lines with the younger crowd pushing forward.

If you or I got pushed like he did. We would be fine or at the very least had the reflexes to brace ourselves.

So please stop with the nonsense.

Back to trump now - what trump said wasn’t wrong. But your political bias is showing and not using your common sense.
