Flailing: Democrats Scream ‘Insider Trading’ After Trump Moves Markets

Hours before Trump announced his pause on tariffs, he posted a clear signal to everybody that it was a great time to buy stocks.

The market was way down and didn’t pop for hours, and when he dropped his official announcement that he would be pausing tariffs on all countries but China, the market went nuts, and a lot of money was made. 

Out of this set of facts the Democrats have concocted the most bizarre conspiracy theory in the world so far. It is so convoluted, so bizarre, and so implausible that “NASA faked the moon landing with Stanley Kubrick” sounds pretty rational and easy to accomplish. 

An insider trading scandal is brewing.

Trump’s 9:30am tweet makes it clear he was eager for his people to make money off the private info only he knew. So who knew ahead of time and how much money did they make? pic.twitter.com/AJbtEq372n

Admittedly, we all know that nobody can play 95 Dimension chess like Donald Trump, so it is within the realm of possibility that when he told the entire world before the stock market even opened that it was a great time to buy stocks he was actually encouraging everybody to sell, drive down prices, so that only a few hand-picked individuals would make any money when the market skyrocketed. 

But, to be honest, even with my magnificent IQ and investigative abilities I fail to see how that strategy would work. Perhaps someone, somewhere, would read Trump’s “Truth” and think, “Hmmm. Maybe I should listen?” If so, the whole Trump scam would be a bust. 

Adam Schiff is accusing Trump of something a lot of Democrats are already guilty of

Since Schiff brought it up, show of hands ✋️ if you want @realDonaldTrump to appoint a Special Counsel to investigate Insider Trading on all members of Congress

Of course, I may be the most stable genius in the world, but I have to admit that insider trading is not something with which I have had a good opportunity to become familiar. I have never been an insider, while Congressional Democrats DO have extensive experience with committing insider trading scams all the time.

It is their main method of getting wealthy as far as I can tell. There is even a stock fund that tracks Nancy Pelosi’s trades and duplicates them to get far better returns than the indexes.

Scott Adams has rightly pointed out that the Democratic Party has what he calls “designated liars,” whose job it is to go out and sell not the garden-variety lies that every politician tells but the truly titanic lies that nobody else could repeat without major tells. 

Adam Schiff and Chris Murphy are two of those, along with Eric Swalwell. These sociopaths, who would murder their grandmothers for the right fee and walk away counting their dough while smiling, will jump in front of any camera to proclaim the most outrageous things, secure in the knowledge that Pravda Media folks will treat it like gospel. 

Remember all that “proof” Schiff had of Trump conspiring with Putin? 

You could be sure that if the Democrats controlled either body of Congress, there would be endless hearings spinning out tales of how a move Trump signaled to the world hours before it was made was actually a closely held secret that only Scott Bessant, Elon Musk, and Donald Trump, Jr. could profit from. 

Alas, no such majority exists, so ABC producers should stay in their jobs until Democrats retake one or another house of Congress. There will be no sequel to the January 6th committee yet.
