Trump Campaign was hacked
sharkman replied to Rebound's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
https://www.semafor.com/article/08/10/2024/trump-campaign-reckons-with-alleged-iranian-hack “Donald Trump’s campaign says it has been hacked, with some internal communications stolen and leaked to Politico over the last month...” So did Politico receive some documents or not? Iran has previously been exposed as having an assassination plot for Trump. If Iran didn’t officially do this, you can be sure that they would want to get their hands on stolen campaign documents, to buy them off the hackers. So they have a better idea of where and when Trump will be. Perhaps some of the logistics of his movements. Security. Things like that. -
Trump Campaign was hacked
sharkman replied to Rebound's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
Interesting, eh? Reports are suggesting that it was Iran doing the hacking. Those of you who can think critically, let me pose the following. 1) Iran, the enemy of the west, is trying to harm Trump's campaign. Not Harris, but Trump. Isn't it interesting that Iran would rather have Harris as president than Trump? 2) This is what would be called election interference, and it's interesting that the MSM isn't reporting this story with the same fervor that they did in 2020 when they thought Russia was doing it to help Trump. -
Can Kamala Harris Still Ditch Walz?
sharkman replied to WestCanMan's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
I'm not a Q person, and I've said this repeatedly, but believe whatever makes you happy. That said, I was on record here as saying that there was no way Biden would run for re-election. All of you brainwashed folk couldn't see this and I was mocked and so on. You talk about Trumpsters being played as you got played by the Biden switcharoo. So now I'm on record as saying Kamala will be replaced as nominee, because she's no match for Trump, and the dem brain trust knows this. Let's see if she even survives the DNC in Chicago. It starts in 9 days, and a lot can happen in the meantime. Biden could succumb to what ails him. Iran could bomb Israel and get leveled in response. China could invade Taiwan. A major terrorist event could unfold in the US. Trump could suffer another assassination attempt. I'm too busy watching world events to bother with what the liberals here in the cheap seats are saying. -
Can Kamala Harris Still Ditch Walz?
sharkman replied to WestCanMan's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
I’ll just leave this here…Trump leads 49-44 against Harris nationwide. https://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/biden_administration/election_2024_trump_49_harris_44_rfk_jr_3 “Former President Donald Trump has maintained his lead over Vice President Kamala Harris, and support for Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s independent campaign continues to decline.“ -
Tim Walz Lied About His Military Service

Could be, or old man Biden could show up and try to take the nomination back. -
Tim Walz Lied About His Military Service

Well let’s see if they survive the DNC starting Aug 19. That thing is looming larger and larger. -
It’s funny, I seemed wrong a couple of years ago when I first started warning about a serious recession. Today everyone knows about the danger. The EV market is in upheaval of sorts, for various reasons. In a few years, hydrogen technology may have become the answer, and you may be on the wrong side of history again.

I am hearing that various markets around the globe are hurting today. Japan has its worst day since Black Monday, 37 years ago. https://www.cnbc.com/2024/08/05/asia-markets.html The Dow down around a 1000 and the day is young. I wonder what moonbox thinks about this. The Nasdaq is down 2% at this time, roughly equivalent to the Dow's negative performance. Bitcoin is doing very badly. Down last week and now this, 8% at this time. https://www.cnbc.com/quotes/BTC.CM=

When the market is setting records, it’s not signalling that peoples’ jobs are at risk. Days like today, a third day of heavy market losses and volatility, does. And people stop spending money as a result, which can cause more pain in the markets.

It's kind of funny. While billions in value were lost on the stock markets around the world this last week, your typical consumer has no idea as this thing looms over their futures. Here's another one for you: A half block sized office building in New York sold for a 97% discount after receiving only one bid. That's a price of 8.5 million, folks. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/huge-midtown-office-building-sells-193820275.html When this trend works its way through the commercial real estate markets as corporations can't pay their bills(half empty buildings put them in a negative cash flow position), there will be lay offs like we haven't seen in a very long time.

Trump / Kamala Debate -- it's on!
sharkman replied to CouchPotato's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
So Kamala should jump at the chance to debate Trump in an arena with Fox moderators. Or will she run away as her campaign kept claiming Trump was doing. I think she'll run. Let's see... -
Now the Dow is down 800 points, does anyone know when the breakers kick in? Edit: According to Wikipedia, the first breaker trips at a 7% drop, which is roughly 2800 points. Second level trips out at 13%.

I’ve not been updating economic threads like this as it seemed like the coming recession wasn’t going to occur until closer to the US election. So yesterday the DOW, Nasdaq and S&P 500 were all floundering and down in a big way. TSE as well. Remember, these markets are mostly rearward looking, responding to what has happened. And this morning things are looking grim as well. US Job reports were only 110,000, missing the mark and causing an uptick in the official Unemployment rate. Right now the DOW is down over 700 points, and the TSE is down over 500! That’s over 2%. Intel laid off 15,000 and the tech sector is hurting big time. It looks like the Magnificent 7 are no longer able to hold up the markets.

Okay, back to the idea of a wave of propaganda. It's been two weeks now since Trump was shot. To those who can think critically, can you remember the progression of the propaganda reporting on this event? There were liberal/dem MSM organizations reporting that loud noises were heard at a Trump rally and Trump was removed. I kid you not. Then similar types of rags were stating that he was probably hit with a piece of the teleprompter, not a bullet. And on and on it's gone. Very little scrutiny for some parts of the event, and of course some of these got into trouble for wishing the bullets had found success. Now I hear that certain organizations have been quietly offering money to people who took pics or video at the event, media that showed what happened to Trump at the rally. They are buying the rights to these pics and videos, and then slapping copyright infringement to people retweeting them or posting them anywhere in the digital world. People are getting their videos on youtube taken down, and a strike issued to them for containing any of this content. No warnings given. If the truth doesn't suit their purposes, they are buying it and burying it.

Its official - the shooter was a democrat.
sharkman replied to CdnFox's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
Yeah, I was watching the media this week all getting behind Harris like she’s the reincarnation of Obama. And predictably the polls followed suit as Harris started taking potshots at Trump. It’s all so predictable, isn’t it? The rewriting of history; no, she wasn’t the border Czar, etc. But the DNC, starting August 19, will tell the tale. Will she get the nomination? Is this really the best they can do? Was Biden forced to resign? Is that legal? How’s his health right now, is he still capable to do the job? And until November? All very interesting questions.
