When compared to what ?
The fact that America has it's worst accumulation of mass murders via 'lone gunmen' throughout October/November '17 ?
Was this trip away THAT necessary ? Nice way to side-step issues at home that never seem to get resolved.

@MrBrownstone Look at it any way you like ! Seen the red numbers next to stocks and shares prices recently ? Gotta hope something comes out from this tour.

@Picklebobble2 Good thing the stock market fluctuates all the time.

So I’ll mark you down in the “success” column then @Picklebobble2

@MrBrownstone NOT to the extent where folk are extra worried for their jobs six weeks before Christmas.

@Picklebobble2 I lost my job 3 times when obama was president.

True. The Dow was down a half point this past week. Barely a blip on the gains over the last year. That’s the best you have?@Picklebobble2

@jackjjackson I just get the feeling the minute a shitstorm looks likely to break they seem to coincide it with a tour....Cynical me !

Thst is terrible. I hope you’re employed now? @MrBrownstone

Just curious. How long do you think it took to plan a trip of this magnitude. My guess is at least three months. Not the 2 days your alleged conspiracy theory would require. @Picklebobble2

MrBrownstone · 46-50, M

@jackjjackson Yes I am

@jackjjackson The problem with it's 'success' is that it's based on nothing !
No extra revenue coming in; no mass orders from anywhere; so the rise has nothing on which to base itself.
that's a bubble, not a rise !
And when it bursts.....

@jackjjackson In order for their to be a conspiracy, you need others to conspire.
This is all just attention distracting hot air !
You watch, the second he gets back it'll be the 'Santa's coming' good time vibe being wheeled out.

Oh OK. It’s make believe. I now understand your cogent argument. @Picklebobble2
