I'm listening to Jim Cramer yell on Chuck Todd

Why would anyone listen to that screaming idiot, he was telling us to buy stock, JUST before everything went down the tubes in 2008 .Sleeves rolled up, he looks sooooo hard working & legit.
Do not pay any attention to a thing he has to say. Total fool, that thinks we are fools.

Basically saying big business is nervous and uneasy with Trump Presidency because if they go against anything he says they know he can hurt them with tweets, on the other hand if they are too chummy the consumers hurt them. Small businesses like Trumps promises and support him. Says business runs best without this insecurity and this is unsustainable. I'm not saying anything about his correctness, just his take on it.

Because during the Obama administration, there seemed to be no end to Wall Street fretting about "instability" or "unpredictability" because the Captains of Industry simply couldn't sail unless the financial waters were absolutely calm (with a favorable wind pushing them with the tide, but still calm ).

Well, the Wall Street President seems to be introducing an incredible amount of instability and unpredictability into the financial sector, and it seems that the insiders don't mind very much at all. But maybe President Trump's erratic moves aren't quite as unpredictable to certain people on Wall Street, if you know what I mean.

A few years ago it was don't hold stocks long.

A few months later it ws hold stocks.

He's a crap artist and J Stewart nailed him good. Not just him though - the whole CCN shitload are the same.

Do a Google to se how beloved Kevin O'Leary is in Canada.
