Trump a 'star' in Davos !

President Trump compared arriving at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, to the Academy Awards:

‘Davos has never been like this,’” Trump said.
“This is like walking into the Academy Awards, except we have more photographers.”

“And without me being here
and without what we've been doing including regulation,
by the way,
... okay?

I just came out and some really wonderful people said,
‘Davos has never been like this,’” Trump said.

He’s going to have to take his family and flee to somewhere rather than jail.


Put him on Elba I think

Most people would assume the US stock market is at record highs because these people are already investing in the US.

Hasn't the value of the dollar been slipping under Trump?

Inflation starts somewhere

The recovery has nothing to do with him. And the stock market blowing up is just what it did in 1929 before it crashed. The economy is already slowing, and his "regulations" are undermining new tech and green job growth. Then he can go to Davos and wallow among the elite.
