So much hatred in America right now, the left won't stop. The word Nazi is thrown around so easily making that person a target for murder. NOT one Democrat will speak out and say its not right.

As if insurance rates are not already sky high, now we have all will have to split the damage bills thru our premiums. You really don't think insurance companies in America are going to eat this thru their profits do you. Idiots abound in USA , now more people will simply refuse or not be able to afford car insurance at all.

I don't see any uproar from the democrats at all.
The transformation of the US into a dictatorship, and Trump worshipping Putin while starting trade wars with allies should be a bigger concern to Democrats than some shitty cars burning down.

The insurance industry can always refuse to insure Tesla vehicles. Hope they do.

never thought i would see an elected official shilling cars on the white house driveway
Against the White House staff code of conduct but not that trumpee would ever think that he should obey any rules.

His mom thought he was an hopeless idiot ... But she raised quite the sweet talker for a certain portion of the American population .

The way trump talks , behaves, brags about or publicize cheap shots , bullies and tries to take revenge...

You wonder why ???? Are you seriously asking anyone to appeal to a higher moral or behavioral standard than trump displays daily ? 😳

Part of the problem is this left vs right nonsense. There are a lot of republicans and right leaning people that really hate Trump.

It’s not just the left that won’t stop. I got screamed at by a neighbor the other day because I don’t like Trump. I most definitely did not try to hit him over the head with socialism but I’m brainwashed by mainstream media and my lefty friends blow up cars lol. It was a bizarre argument that I wasn’t even a part of. I’m left but I don’t hate anybody. Nothing but love for you and for Trump lovers. The world needs more love. That’s how we all heal.

I even have hope that in the end some good things will come out of all of this. Canada will be more independent. The pendulum will swing the other way in 4 years. Musk is gonna keep on being a spoiled rich baby but he won’t be in politics forever.

Nothing ever lasts. Nothing ever stays the same. This too shall pass.

Don’t put the blame of hate on lefts. It’s just simply not true.

Trump is the one spewing hate almost every time he opens his mouth, he’s always telling people who to hate next.

I'm looking at Huntsville, Alabama as a potential retirement city now. Red States have a terrible reputation on this site but looking at the youtube videos its is a whole lot cleaner than Seattle which is a pile of trash in a lot of places. I can't wait to leave this cold dumpy city. If it wasn't for the Mexican taco trucks here the city would be unlivable.
The grass is always greener… until you get there.

I am abdicating my position for a while as a pro Trump voice on the board as, while I support much of what he is doing in the US he is screwing Canada with these chaotic on again off again tariffs and coincidentally bringing life to the possibility of yet another 4 years of Liberal rule under yet another WEF supporting PM who.... while he says he will drop the Carbon tax is on record as saying he will just supplement it with the same thing under a different name. The Liberal party should be dead and buried and Trump has given it mouth to mouth resuscitation.

Will wait and see how the election plays out.

I will let that Landrover guy off the bet as a result..
There's nothing wrong with being pro Trump. Many Americans have valid reasons for why they chose Trump over Kamala.. it's not like voting for any politician is without drawbacks.
The important thing is to recognize that support for one political opinion or stance does not mean that you can't oppose or be appalled by another - by the same person.
It's really encouraging to see anyone who is pro-Trump acknowledging that they don't agree with everything the man does. That's the mature and logical thing to do and it's scary that so many MAGA devotees can't seem to see past the hypocrisy of hating something a democrat does, but loving it when Trump does it, even when it's against their own interests. The level of faith, or more aptly put zealotry is scary.

Cheers.

You posted opinion, not fact. Did you fail to read the attachment which described how currency markets work? Apparently you also failed to read the attachment that described the reason some currency’s are weak. Brief recap, weak currencies are due to lack of confidence in a specific economy. Canada intentionally keeping its currency weak is 100% ridiculous. As you can see in the attached graph, Canada did not ALWAYS keep its currency weak. Between 2010 and 2015, it was about 1 to 1, sometimes higher, which was due to the US housing crisis that caused a weak economy for the US. That is factual data. The only major country that wants a weak currency is China. That is because it exports more than any other nation and exports are its bread and butter. I trade currency almost every single day and make enough money to have fun. Maybe your reading comprehension isn’t up to par. The article I previously attached specifically indicated China is retaliating against Canada for the EV tariff. You should become a politician, you pull stuff out of nowhere and attempt to convince people you know what you’re talking about. The financial industry can mean a bank teller. I am not attacking you, but your knowledge is very limited, or you’re just playing , I don’t know. To answer your question about NATO, 1.3%…….6th from the bottom of 32 countries, which is the bottom 18% of members, is not exactly support. Maybe you can understand a video!

You say that "I am not attacking you", yet statements like "maybe your reading comprehension isn't up to par" or "you should become a politician" "the financial industry can mean a bank teller" "knowledge is very limited" "you're just playing" etc etc. tells a much different story.

Call a spade a spade. You're trolling, attempting to make derisive, insulting comments into an argument. That's not how debate works. You insinuate that I am lying about my background while you loudly proclaim all of your supposed expertise "I trade currency almost every single day and make enough money to have fun".. "enough money" can be ten cents, "having fun" can mean buying a marble to play with the kids on the street. These sorts of attacks are meaningless and pointless.
Drop the overbearing Drama Queen persona and try to discuss things reasonably.

Apparently my facts are opinions and your opinions are facts. You've fully bought into Trump's alternate reality theory where everything he says is true and accurate whether contradicting actual facts. I am not arguing that a weak economy doesn't result in a weak exchange rate, I am arguing that your analysis is overly simplistic and doesn't acknowledge the other factors that contribute to differences in currency exchange - like interest rates which are under the control of the Bank of Canada.

The stock market is tanking and the USA (pulling the rest of us along with them) are headed into a recession. Your brilliant economist Trump is doing such a great job.

Happy Thursday people

Hypocrisy. It's "blinking" when Canadian politicians delay retaliation and it's "what?" when Trump does it?
You yourself said you wish Trump would stop waffling over on again off again tariffs,... but it's "blinking" when Ford delays retaliation but not Trump.
no need to reply to this clown he’s on a well deserved holiday from the board, again lol.

I discovered if I place the same amount of the SS contribution into an S&P index fund, I will make much more money than I will get from SS. Basic numbers, a person whom contributes an average of $150k per year for 30 years can start collecting SS at 62 years old in the amount of $2400 per month. I have just over 5 million in my index fund and I’m not 62. Do the math! .
So how much of your 5M in index funds lose over the last little while with Trump tanking the stock market?

It's always good to do volunteer work to 'give back' during retirement.

I'd suggest assisting women in Alabama hospital parking lots who are bleeding to death because doctors are afraid to treat them.

I agree... it's a shame that the right won't stop.. how not one Republican will denounce the harm done by some political moron saying immigrants eat pets... or Nancy Pelosi's husband being beaten with a hammer because of the inflamed rhetoric of certain political. Oh? You were talking about the other politicians? The left? Yeah I guess you have a point, they shouldn't be exactly like the Republicans, they should be better. I mean, it wouldn't be hard to be better than that would it?

From the playbook today: Quell protest and threaten those who speak out. Call any form of protest “illegal” and create enemies.

https://www.rollingstone.com/politi...nding-schools-columbia-university-1235287499/
Following Hitler’s script.
Hitler used his SA stormtroopers to cause havoc in the streets. They fought rivals in brawls and disrupted rallies for opposing candidates. Then he purged them and murdered most of their leaders.
He declared a state of emergency and that was the end of democracy.
Trump would love to do the same. Watch for manufactured chaos and the creation of targeted enemies ie “immigrants” and “liberals”.
The real turning point will be the next general election. If he loses will he give up power? Will he suspend elections?
Here’s another one, they’re almost daily now. FBI lunatic targets HABITAT FOR HUMANITY for fucks sake.

Meanwhile in the geology news the past while, Mount Spurr, about 70miles from Anchorage is showing all the signs of a volcano about to erupt. Alaska still has their geo services intact (for now) so appropriate warnings and related relevant and timely information will be available. But being on top of this type of pending disaster (could be big!) is the type off thing that the nazi master and the convicted felon are harming by disbanding the many science based organizations in the US gov. The shit show just gets stupider and stupider, let alone the increasing tariff bullshit.
