    Why would Wall Street be supporting Joe?

    Joe is getting 5 times the contributions from Wall St. that trump is getting

    Why would the little guy believe that he is on their side?

    Because this inflated market is a fantasy propped up by the Fed buying corporate bonds, coupled with years of share buybacks. W.Street would rather a POTUS who doesn't destroy trade.

    I don't understand why half the people who are supporting Joe are doing so. It seems insanity to me.
    It's amazing how the Republicans used to be thought of as the party of big business, and now that seems to have flipped.

    Yes. They bought Obama as well. As a Junior Senator from IL, Obama was the largest recipient of campaign contributions from Wall St. of anyone in the Senate.

    They were both dirty as hell.

    Wall St is globalist companies. They only see the US as a large consumer base. The Democrats present them with the opportunity to drain us and build larger populations of customers. Neither care if the US is left in ruins.

    He is. Little will change and they will continue to bathe in the money.

    A great first officer but an even better second course.

    We're being sold out to global interests. Trump stands in the way of that, and that's why he has to be destroyed.

    The little CNN liar says Trump suggesting the stock market is a barometer for how well he is doing is alienating half of America that doesn't own stocks.

    No, you little ****. That doesn't alienate anyone. You're a paid liar. That alienates everyone.

    If half the country doesn't have 401ks or some other sort of retirement accounts, they should.
