Hey trump lovers, how’s your 401K today?

Well…yeah, that’s a recycled title….did one of these a few months back but had to do another one today with the Dow down another 400 points after yesterday’s selloff of 1100 points…so that makes a 5 1/2 percent loss in just two days…if you had 100K in yours you now only have 94,500 dollars…I know I sometimes harp on the stock market here but it’s only because the idiot trump thinks it’s the be all and end all to the economy’s health…so you gloat when it goes up, so now you have to take the crap when it falls…especially when it is trump’s lack of concern that the coronavirus is even serious…saying “everything will be fine when April comes” and somehow the magic of the calendar changing will stop the virus from infecting anyone else while trump decimates funding for the NIH and the CDC. He also cut the US contribution to the WHO, the organization that is at the forefront of the fight against this virus….and, I said yesterday, people are going to die because trump and his cronies are shortsighted assholes and are using cuts in funding to push their anti science bullshit…does that matter to you trumpies? Yeah…probably not…after all, the people dying so far are “foreigners” and who cares about them?
