Campaign Update: Markets are Pricing in a Guilty Verdict in the Trump Trial
If you’re wondering why the stock markets have been tanking all week, the answer is pretty simple: Investors are pricing in the possibility of a guilty verdict in the Soviet-style show trial of Donald Trump in Manhattan. It took far longer than it should have, but the big Wall Street investment houses are finally realizing they’ve been investing in what Joe Biden and Barack Obama have turned into just another banana republic.
Following the conclusion of the prosecution’s interminable closing arguments that droned on for about 7 hours (imagine sitting through that crap), the jury deliberated most of Wednesday afternoon before finishing the day by request corrupt Judge Juan Merchan re-state the 50 pages of jury instructions he delivered earlier in the day. New York state law makes it illegal for a judge to provide juries with written versions of such instructions - how anyone is supposed to commit 50 pages of the damn things to memory is beyond all comprehension.
