You jest, but futures can actually go negative. At one point during covid a tanker shortage meant you could be paid a few $100 to accept delivery of a barrel of crude. Some people were joking about filling their swimming pools.
I hate to darken your cloud, but that makes them exactly the people who will be cut off by the administration. The economy won’t care if they die in the streets… pure capitalism has no heart as much as pure communism has no drive.
Let them cook, an apathetic base won’t turn out in shame and tell themselves they’re not needed.
“The number you have called, FEMA, has been disconnected, or is no longer as dialed. Please check the number and dial again.”
“He’s hurting the wrong people.”
Trump voters… at least we all agree they’re the wrong people.
Maybe they’re concerned they’d find out the information she killed herself over.
Bring them here!
I’m giving you an angry upvote for this, because this comment is on one of two ends of the bell curve.
I like imagining whatever traps are waiting have gotten a few people. Have a massive spider lair? Leaved a husk of an adventurer outside with an antivenom potion in their bag.
Clearly you don’t frequent the NSFW forums

You’re pushing all the right buttons here, don’t sell yourself short!
In trading we refer to tesla as a meme stock, or better, as shit beta. I have a theory a number of big interday players moved into memes when they started getting bigger, because the poor liquidity of the plays cause the market…. Because the people who sell the stock had to keep buying more stock to make the options they sold safer.
Tesla is up and down because it makes people money.
Same as eggs… if enough people believe other people will want to buy it for a dollar more than they paid, they will pay the asking price. When supply is scarce that drives the price up.
What do you mean by “go against?”
Assassination is right out. Too much to risk.
Cast shade on his politics? Easy. You can rent a large enough number of billboards around the country to start an influence campaign on the cheap, getting republicans to start asking if they’ve been betrayed. We’re talking a few million a year. Much as the republicans chipped at the dem base in the election, you just need to get enough of them angry to start the fighting and finger pointing in their own house.
Rent a few republican legislators and get them to start throwing a wrench in things? Doable, but you have to steer them a bit. Probably 2 to 3 times the cost of the billboards. You also need to make them feel they come out on top for the noise they make. Probably call them “the loyal trump faction” and have them go overboard demanding things faster than the american people will take.
Start a competitor to twitter? Probably lose 100mm a year to start, but it can be done.
There are lots of things you can do.
This is art.
Hard to imagine crawling through so much poop just to get killed.
I personally discovered 50 dependents when the cuts were announced.
