Welcome!

Global economic data is declining but does that mean next year will be like 2008?

December 2, 2019

Anthony Saccaro, President of Providence Financial joins me to share his thoughts on the stability of the equity market around the world. With economic data continuing to decline it’s reasonable to think a recession is around the corner but there are a number of other factors that could hold the markets up. We dive into these other factors that have helped support the markets new all time high values and just how sustainable they are.

    CFS:

    I can’t think of any other big names in involved in the Trump impeachment circus who are not on this list. Now given that Trump is a sock puppet owned and operated on part of Sheldon Adelson this coup in progress doesn’t make logical sense but we know who is behind it.

    Congressman Brad Sherman, Jewish
    Tom Steyer, Jewish
    Congressman Steve Cohen, Jewish
    Congressman Elliot Engel, Jewish
    Congresswoman Nita Lowey, Jewish
    Congresswoman Elaine Luria, Jewish
    Congressman Adam Schiff, Jewish
    Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman, Jewish
    Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch, Jewish
    Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky, Jewish
    Ambassador Gordon Sondland, Jewish
    Congressman Jerry Nadler, Jewish
    Attorney Daniel Sachs Goldman, Jewish
    George Soros, Jewish
    Dr. Fiona Hill, Jewish
    Congresswoman Elissa Slotkin, Jewish
    Former Deputy National Security Advisor Charles Kupperman, Jewish
    National Security Advisor John Bolton, Jewish

    If this isn’t a Jewish coup, what is it?

      And also Dr. Wes Rutheimer, Jewish

      It is a Democrat coup.
      Just because many liberal Jews are Democrats does not mean it is a “Jewish” coup.
      It just means that many liberal Jews are money-grubbing corrupt politicians. They are driven by Jewish love of money that they are politicians, not because Jews, in general wish to destroy Trump. The Democrat coup started as a desire for power by disrupting normal progress towards the next election, by smearing Trump. It may work if the coup distraction destroys the economy. It all depends on who is blamed by the public for the economic destruction.
      Media will blame Trump. But will the general public ? I don’t know.

      Is Trump to blame if the economy falls ? Probably not. He has done much more to extend growth in the current cycle, which is the longest in the last century, but all economic cycles do end, notwithstanding MMT which supposedly can stop cyclicality.

    At least 13/100 Senators, at least 27/435 House Reps, and many of The Presidents’s cabinet.

    I don’t know the percentage of US citizens eligible, in general, to hold dual citizenship.

    With the large numbers involved in immigration, I would guess that about 25% of U.S. citizens, born in the U.S. could acquire a second passport and thus citizenship of a foreign country) via the birth origin of their parents.
    I do know the equivalent number for Australia is actually 49%, because the
    Australian census actually asks about birth country of parents, whereas the U.S. does not.
    U.S. citizens can also acquire a second passport by either changing residency or by purchase (e.g. Dominica and some other Caribbean islands.)

      And do not forget Dr. Wes Rutheimer – Sex Therapist to Donald Trump.
