Summary
As Trump’s erratic tariff policy rattles global markets, investors and financial analysts are questioning his mental fitness.
Tom Lee of FSInsights said macro fund managers fear the White House is “not acting rationally, but rather on ideology,” with some even wondering if “the President might be insane.”
Lee placed full blame on Trump, saying his decisions lead to a “binary outcome,” though they often lack logic.
Market volatility surged after Trump raised tariffs on China to 125% before having to abruptly pause most tariffs.
Deeply concerned type shit
He’s certainly old enough to be significantly impacted by mental decline. Some have it happen much earlier than others.
He has been insane his entire life. He just is at a point now where it gets to unfold much more freely than it ever has, because he has been crowned de facto king of everything.
He’s also a traitor.
Welcome to 10 years ago…
No shit
Insane? Or just an idiot?
Both and more. He’s an insane, idiotic, egotistical, megalomaniacal, bitter, bigotted, petulant narcissist. All of that
They aren’t mutually exclusive.
it’s just that these guys aren’t ‘in the loop’ on when to sell or short and when to buy—like the shitstain and his comrades are.
DO NOT RETALIATE AND YOU WILL BE REWARDED
Very sane, very normal.
Very rapey. Very on-brand.
There’s no need to worry … everyone knows he’s insane already
except those simping for him.
Anyone actually being observant has already come to that conclusion long, long ago.
They’re only worried about this now?! These are supposed to be observant people who manage large sums of money… How can they be that oblivious to Trump’s modus operandi?! Even in his first term there was obvious evidence that he never matured beyond childhood and had a tenuous grip on reality.
These are people who come from wealthy families and spent their whole lives paying tutors to help them cram just enough to get their degree. They had family friends working at big companies who hired them based on who they know not qualifications. They go to expensive bars and clubs together and all that matters is who you know and how wealthy and well known your family is.
That is who the trump family is, and it describes a large portion of these financial institutions. I’m citing Gary Stevenson as my source for this.
They only are caring now because they’re losing money
He’s not insane; he has dementia.
I think it could be both
He’s not insane, he’s evil.
you can be both
It’s not so much that he’s insane as it is that he knows so very, very little that he’s incapable of telling good advice from bad advice. He sees all advice as being of equal value, so he bases his decisions on how much the other person likes him.
Example: All the tariff bullshit seems to have come from a single source, Peter Navarro. Whose main source for tariff effectiveness is a guy named “Ron Vara”, an anagram of “Navarro”.
If Trump knew the first thing about, well, anything, he’d reject Navarro out of hand. He doesn’t.
Unfortunately Trump isn’t alone in that regard - quite a lot of people reach adulthood lacking critical thinking and the ability to actually discern what is or isn’t a reliable and useful source of information. Add to that the propaganda machine of media empires like Murdoch’s and it’s no wonder people buy Trump’s inane ramblings.
