How soon before "the red hats" start claiming they have never made so much money in the stock market?

Mark-Paul @MarkPaul (217) 10 Mar

PREDICTION: As trump's policies crash the stock market (and the economy), rather than confess to his incompetence, "the red hats" will claim they are making money hand-over-fist, that they are buying an abundance of eggs...

The Horse lad you have that strength. I have seen some horrible thing here in the Bay Area. I was even attacked from behind by someone with a water bottle. But I was able to subdue the attacker. Life is strange.

trump takes credit and denies responsibility...

Mark-Paul @MarkPaul (217) 10 Mar
