Futures Climb on Renewed Rhetoric, Post State of the Union

I really tried to get back into MAGA mode for this speech, attempting to conjure up some latent nationalism that was running hot during the 2016 elections. Sadly, I failed.

All throughout the speech, I kept saying to my wife ‘wouldn’t it be great if the whole place blew up?’ I could see the flames rummaging throughout the chamber, cleaning out the room of all the miserable people harrowing the country. But then I got to think about some of the innocents in there and the devils who’d likely fill the power void and felt a great shame for thinking such horrible things.

I know the answer to the issues facing our country and this is it: fuck them.

It’s best to simply ignore the nonsense, position for personal success, make a fuck load of money, drink and spend ruinously until we’re buried 6 feet deep.

Futures are spiking tonight, +85 on the Dow and +28 Nasdaqs. WTI is lower by 0.9%. This is a tepid response post -400 decline. However, we can build from here and hopefully crucify the people who dare stand in our way.

The true story tonight isn’t the shit-filled, canned SOTU speech, but instead the fucking fuckery taking place in the crypto currencies.

Earlier this morning the SEC announced it had seized the assets of a company scheming to launch the largest ICO in history. Tonight the ramifications of regulatory action is hurting the 5 year olds who trade in and out of these idiotic instruments. To that end, I will continue to buy this asset class each and every month for a year, not because they’re fundamentally sound, but because I am interested to see how it goes.

In short, futures are mildly higher. Trump is autistic. The democrats can go fuck themselves, and everyone else in that chamber this evening.

See you in the morning.

    Actually it is a pretty good speech. This is a President I can stand behind. I know you love Alex Jones and the like but this is what a President should be.

      Actually, I don’t like Alex Jones and think the whole right-left media is a giant waste of time.

      Speech sucked balls.

        I didn’t realize you stopped liking him and his ilk. Good to know. I agree with your sentiments, except for the speech.

      Trump’s base says he’s a very stable genius. Trump’s detractors see Chauncy Gardiner. They’re both wrong.

      Trump is the new PT Barnum, and the media is his Circus.

      So sit back, make some more popcorn, and enjoy ‘The Greatest Show On Earth’.

    I’ll have to agree that Obama gave better speeches than Trump could even dream of.

    Here’s one of his better ones.

    Nothing wrong with what the cryptos are doing. I know you dislike charts, but here you go.

    Careful with the end zone dancing about XIV. When the plebs are jumping in on margin, you know the “machines” are selling or soon will be. If it works out in the morning, I would abandon ship ASAP.

    I didn’t watch the SOTU speech, had more important stuff to do (took the dog for a walk).

    what fuckery
    bitcoin going back to 100$ maybe 10$ or the value it has ( not 10000$ )
    the rest will follow

    the sec on the cryptoshit means just 1 thing that is ending much lower then where it is ..no 1M bitcoin anywhere.. no mcafee dick .. no porkhead chop..

    nothing

    just bullshit allaround , as it was created
    from nothing and with no value aparte being good assets for money laundering and illegal activities

    the descent may be slow though

    My 11 old cousin from Mill Basin put all his Xmas money in Cryptos and is going to double down in March with his birthday money. He is all about Lambos, Hodling, and the Moon. Really felt like smacking him around but who knows maybe i’m the idiot.

      “Really felt like smacking him around but who knows maybe i’m the idiot.”

      If you’re wondering whether your 11 year old cousin is smarter than you, you’ve answered your own question.

    Trump delivered the same shit they all deliver — he listed our latest (manufactured) enemies in order to steal more tax-payer monies for war in the name of god and peace through military power and might.

    No surprises whatsoever, unfortunately.

    My threshold for listening to politicians is about 45 seconds, so I declined to watch the speech.

    The fairly new development, according to video and reporting, is that the dems no longer feint any semblance of patriotism. They make a temper-tantrum-throwing 5 year old seem genteel.
