Sunday Flotsam and Jetsam
Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.
Reportedly Israel, India, the EU, Japan, Vietnam, and Cambodia all are in talks to drop their tariffs if Donald Trump does the same. The art of the deal... Elon Musk points out that the number of illegals receiving federal benefits is much higher than 1.3 million. That's just the number that's been found so far. Remember each one that is getting benefits, undeservedly so, makes it harder for people who have paid into the system to get theirs... How come nobody seems to describing the Ukraine War as a quagmire? This seems the very definition of the word yet nobody seems to be using it... Hard to argue James Altucher is wrong here... Curious if Mike Pence has announced he's joining The Bulwark yet. You know that's coming... Not only did the US add 228,000 jobs in March but Canada reportedly lost 33,000 jobs. Of course this is all Trump's fault... You could have AI redub the Super Friends and give Superman a Trump hairdo and all the President's speaking lines. Elon Musk could be Batman and Tulsi Gabbard could be Wonder Woman. They could fight the Legion of Doom (China, the DNC, corporate media, Big Pharma) each episode. Make it so!... The US and Argentina reach the first zero-tariffs deal. Both Trump and Javier Milei know what they are doing. Looks like Vietnam and the UK are negotiating to be next... Can you imagine the damage a fat person with low blood sugar could do to a WalMart if they are riding a CORLEO robot instead of a Rascal scooter?... Have any of those politicians who received donations from SBF returned those funds yet? Let's have an SBF Files type expose... Does Newport Maine have a sign saying "Birthplace of Cooper Flagg" yet?... Go woke - go broke… Calling someone an "ample woman" is certainly a polite was to put it...

James Altucher is not wrong. My only quibble is that countries don’t have friends, they have interests. I’m glad that Trump is calling out this fact and smashing the old post-WWII world order where America pays for everything. If we focus on our interests it truly will become the Golden Age of America!
Oh, and when I saw Cooper Flagg from Maine my first thought was Randall Flagg from Stephen King’s “The Stand”. Weird how the brain works at times.
CORLEO: Well, ah dunno. I can see damage like that almost any day I go to Sea World and observe the rented mobility scooters. Inevitable there will be at least one doing damage to some innocent park goer.
