Looking at the stock market and thinking about Trump's psychology March 12, 2020 8:43 pm BuckGalaxy

The bloodbath is staggering. $25T in value erased from the face of the earth. More money than our entire national debt gone in less than 3 weeks. 2400 points down today alone. And as I sit here after trading hours I check and see Dow Futures are down.

As broad swaths of the economy start to close down, and millions of Americans start to hunker down, a recession is unavoidable. The Dow a mere 1300 or so points higher than where it was when Obama left office. How will it effect Trump’s psyche when it inevitably sinks below Obama’s level?

I fully expect him to become even more unhinged and dangerous. The horror story may be over soon, but it’s going to be a scary ending.
