I've never heard him say that, "We're playing with the bank's money now." CNBC says he said it. And since it's CNBC, one of the lying mainstream fake news media, I don't believe a word of it.
Trump has said he can do trade wars because, "They need us waaaaaay more than we need them." IOW, we tariff, they tariff, and they're going to be the ones that get raped. At least 1 commentator talking to the subject says that this is not a trade war, it is a trade skirmish. We'll see how that works out. I'm not running for the woods, hands in air and hair on fire right now. And of course I'll repeat myself, tariffs are not the way to do it. The way to do it is to abolish our egregious millstone-to-prosperity called the income taxes, and let the economy roar, which it most certainly will if the gov't doesn't tromp into every corner of society and steal their money with an income tax.

The point, rally, is there is no pile of bank money he’s playing with. He’s just spouting the usual bullshitter’s word salad without understanding. It’s like when he talks about our allies owing us money for NATO - it shows how poorly he grasps these concepts, how little he understands. Now, miss the point some more and adore Dear Leader, your messiah, your Ideal Man.

I am sure that I am not alone in anxiously watching the stock market and wondering what the hell will happen to my retirement funds when it tanks. Because what goes up must come down, and even though all of my 401(k) is in the 'moderate' risk fund, that doesn't mean I won't take a bath when the crash comes.
All the investment analysts says "You have to be in this for the long-term" - I find myself wondering how many of them have extra money under the mattress 'just in case'

So you recommend drastic underfunding then levying new taxes? As long as nobody is ever held to account for the original underfunding, we can piss on whomever is power when the shit hits the fan.
Also, Trump thinks when the stock market goes up, banks have money for him to play with.

No, I don't recommend that at all. Why would you say that?

Well, because you highlight the corrective action to that scenario.
