Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

Different priorities. If your goal is to see your stock portfolio go up and ignore everything else, voting republican makes sense because that’s their goal too.

Not saying it’s right but that’s what it is.

Look up market valuation by prez and see that Dems do way better.

Definitely not facts

Usually republicans make things go up for a while, then they pass a bunch of stupid shit, destabilize the economy and cause a crash for democrats to clean up.

It’s more about control of congress than anything else, the president doesn’t have a huge impact on stock prices on the whole

If you are comparing the orange traitor to Brandon (not sure that’s what you’re intimating), consider both data points at the same time in their presidential trajectories.
