Open Thread December 27

by Carl Ballard — Friday, 12/27/19, 9:47 am

If you’re anything like me, you got socks that you will never wear for Christmas (or whatever holiday you celebrate, or inexplicably from a vendor at work). I’m sure that whatever charity shop you donate them to is great. But if you’re having trouble figuring out what to do with them, there are boxes of socks for homeless people. You can find the one closest to you here.

    I see the Great Leader of Russia, and the great Russian people, have great celebrations over hypersonic weapons. Truly awesome.

    But that Stock Market – woooohoooo!

    I think it’s about time to lower America’s rating and power in the World.

    Certain House Democrats calling for Durham’s resignation. They know the message is going to be devastating, so they’re attempting to discredit the messenger.

    Invictus, ya dumbass, ask yourself how ya missed this:

    Interestingly, though, even in the “no increase” states, the relative median wage has improved, suggesting that the increased tightness of labor markets, or some other factor than hikes in state minimum wages, is playing a role in pushing up the pay for those in lower-wage jobs.

    Good read here (how did I miss it?) on wage growth at the lower end of the spectrum. Who would have guessed a higher min wage works? @GoldyHA @ritholtz @NickHanauer @LOLGOP https://macroblog.typepad.com/macroblog/ https://macroblog.typepad.com/macroblog/wage-growth/?d=1&s=tw … via @AtlantaFed

    It’s a multifactorial relationship, and the differences are quite minor. But when all ya gots is a hammer, everything’s gotta look like a nail.

    @3 Thank you for giving America’s lowest-wage workers 2 whole days to enjoy (?) Christmas before attacking their wages again.

    Just can’t get over the 13th Amendment, can you?

    Roger Dumbfuck Rabbit will pull the lever for Trump.

    Stocks head into 2020 betting on Trump election victory

    https://www.cnbc.com/2019/12/27/stocks-head-into-2020-betting-on-trump-election-victory.html

    This is why:

    As stocks enter the new year, strategists are expecting single-digit gains for the market, as in most presidential election years, but they also say those gains would be threatened if investors begin to believe a victory by President Trump is in doubt.

    Roger Dumbfuck Rabbit has been a failure his whole life and he has not much longer to live. The small pittance he has acquired is at risk if a Democrat wins the White House.

    Y’all HA libbies have painted Trump supporters as dumbfuck racist old white guys. That’s Roger Dumbfuck Rabbit.

    I picked this title specifically for you, Steve:

    Trump stock market rally is far outpacing past US presidents

    https://www.cnbc.com/2019/12/26/trumps-stock-market-rally-is-far-outpacing-past-us-presidents.html

    Now, Steve will point out that Trump didn’t do as well as Obama. My response is that Trump shouldn’t be measured against Obama. He should be measured against

    Biden
    Warren
    Bernie
    Mayor Pete

    This is why Democrats are shitting bricks right now. There is barely more than 10 months to go before the election, impeachment turned out to be the joke y’all were told it would be, and that hoped-for recession ain’t gonna happen.

    Steve and Bob are camping when a bear suddenly comes out and growls. Bob starts putting on his tennis shoes.
    Steve says, “What are you doing? You can’t outrun a bear!”
    Bob says, “I don’t have to outrun the bear—I just have to outrun you!”

    Trump doesn’t have to beat Obama, Steve. He just has to beat whatever loser Dems put up against him in 2020.

    @5 “Roger Dumbfuck Rabbit has been a failure his whole life and he has not much longer to live. The small pittance he has acquired is at risk if a Democrat wins the White House.”

    A trivial price to pay for ridding our country of a racist, misogynistic, psychopathic Hitler wannabe.

    Whom Doctor Dumbfuck has no problem voting for because, you know, stock market. Plus he’s a dumbfuck.

    @9 Considering that 10% of the population owns 90% of the stock, and half of those rich guys are liberals, that assures Trump of, um, 5% of the popular vote.

    No wonder he courts evangelicals. They’re poorer but more numerous, and definitely dumber than the average stock investor (with a few exceptions; e.g., Doctor Dumbfuck), making them easier to exploit.

    Speaking of evangelicals, they’re doing a great job of driving the new young generations away from religion.

    “He should be measured against”

    Still coming here to crow about getting beat by a black guy?

    I see you left Bill Clinton out of your list. Understandable. He whupped your orange moron’s ass, too.

    So you create a list of people who have never been president, and plead with us to compare your orange moron’s record as president to theirs. Dumbfuck much, Doctor?

    You don’t want to compare your orange moron to the last two Democrat presidents for one very simple fucking reason. They both kicked your orange dumbfuck’s ass. If you didn’t make more money trading under those two than you did under your orange fucktard then you’re the dumbest fucking trader on the planet.

    But please continue acting like a dumbfuck about it.

    @19 Conservatives, of course, believe eating that veggie burger will cause them to grow tits. After all, they believe Trump, too.

    Doctor Dumbfuck apparently buys that horseshit, too, because he’s a dumbuck. But rational and competent people know “an Impossible Whopper doesn’t actually contain any estrogen.”

    AOC, while endorsing Bernie:

    “For anyone who accuses us for instituting purity tests — it’s called having values,” AOC declared at a rally for Sen. Bernie Sanders … the candidate she has endorsed for 2020. “It’s called giving a damn. It’s called having standards for your conduct to not be funded by billionaires but to be funded by the people.”
