"That's what ABC says"


Q: How much longer will American continue to see these high gas prices?

TRUMP: Well, they're not very high

Q: a gallon still

TRUMP: That's what ABC says, but the stock market is up. Everything is doing really well.

I wish it was that low here (Oregon). Of course it was 2 months ago. It's still cheaper here than California though

as Big Dumb Money (TM) pours into anything with AI in its name or the data centers it will require on the theory that Fatso's stupidity will continue to hurtle us into a big war in which h9igh tech will be king.

If they had any real brains, they'd be looking for innovative but dinky little companies specializing in developing new drone tech, making them cheaper, quieter, longer range, more maneuverable, and capable of carrying nasty sized payloads.

But that's why Dumb Money is still backing Fatso. As long as there is more Dumb Money is out there to keep the paper profit going up.
