Trump is back in the branding game

 

President Trump is doing what he does best: Giving potential enemies bad brands.

 

Joe Biden is “one percent Biden,” a nickname that mocks the vice president’s poor showings in two previous runs for the White House.

 

Sen. Corey Booker (D-N.J.) is the “bad mayor” who “destroyed, practically by himself” the city of Newark, N.J.

 

Most controversially, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) is “Pocohontas,” the nickname Trump first placed on Warren because of her identification as a Native American in academic listings.

 

Republicans have sometimes been unsettled by Trump's name calling, but as 2020 inches closer and the Democratic field comes into view, many say the president is doing what he does best; getting a head start on the labels that could doom his future opponents.

Another Precipice – word of the day?

Financial Crisis on the horizon – the sky is falling

 

Peter Schiff: "We're On The Precipice Of A Much Bigger Crisis Than The Last One"

 

"The next time, if they try to reflate those bubbles, which they will, it will be a spectacular failure because the markets are now prepared for the opposite. Everybody, right now, assumes the Fed is going to be able to keep raising rates. They assume they are going to shrink its balance sheet and that we have this booming economy that will never bust.

 

When the Fed has to reverse course abruptly, acknowledge the underlying weakness that everybody has been oblivious to and they start cutting rates and launching another round of quantitative easing (money printing), I think the dollar is going to fall through the floor. I think the inflationary fires that are already burning pretty hot are going to ignite. It’s not going to be like 2008 where the dollar went up and consumer prices inched down a little bit. I think the dollar is going to tank and consumer prices are going to soar, and it’s going to be stagflation. When the markets get a whiff of that, they are not going to like the way it smells.

 

It is going to create a dollar crisis. I think the Fed has put itself between a rock and a hard place. There is no way out this time… This time, you really have to be positioned because this time is going to be the end of it. This is not going to be a hat trick or third time is a charm when it comes to reflating these bubbles.”
