"Wall Street Turns on Trump: Musk, Ackman, Druckenmiller Sound the Alarm

3:23 PM EDT

Wall Street just got loud and it's not cheering.

Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) CEO Elon Musk, Pershing Square's Bill Ackman (Trades, Portfolio), and hedge legend Stanley Druckenmiller (Trades, Portfolio) are now openly throwing punches at the Trump administration's tariff plans, warning they could trigger a full-blown market meltdown.

What started as scattered criticism has snowballed into a rare, public revolt from some of the most influential voices in investing.

Even JPMorgan Chase (NYSE:JPM) CEO Jamie Dimon, once cautiously optimistic, is waving a red flag in his latest letter: We're not in Kansas anymore. Meanwhile, markets continue their slide, with uncertainty mounting by the hour."

"BlackRock's Larry Fink warns US economy is weakening as we speak'

The head of BlackRock, the world's biggest asset manager, told a gathering of chief executives and investors in New York that there was "a real downturn" developing in several sectors and that "more and more people were pausing and slowing down consumption".

"When you see a 20 per cent market decline in three days obviously it has significant impacts and the ripple effects of the potential of tariffs is going to be long-standing," Fink said.

"The market is impacting Main Street."

- Never bet against Trump.

Possibly even more important Birthday Celebrations will be held all over America by Trumper Neo-Nazis on April 20, 2025.

Guess who's?

- "Planning began last year."

Doesn't mean squat this year; of course the 250th Birthday would have a parade.

Trump planned the same kind of military parade for his birthday several years ago, though, which does infer that we would be having this parade whether it was their birthday or not... because it's still his Bday, and $100 million partying while the economy goes into recession is just SO Trump.

Tanks are wildly appropriate for the scum, er, the man who tanked the US Economy and destroyed the Western Alliance for the Vlad he loves!

HEY now!

Dictators in Russia, China, and North Korea get THEIR own military parades, so why shouldn't our new Dear Leader??

Here's the scoop, route, road damage... in less than 2 mins.

Perhaps the Baby Trump Blimp will make a appearance.

Bondi can then ship it to a S American prison.

"Liz Oyer, who has said she was fired as the department's pardon attorney last month after refusing a request to recommend that actor Mel Gibson's gun rights be restored, is among several witnesses invited to appear Monday before a joint hearing of House and Senate lawmakers.

The hearing, which among other witnesses is to feature a former public corruption prosecutor who resigned under protest amid the Justice Department's dismissal of its case against New York Mayor Eric Adams, will represent the first time in the new Trump administration that newly departed Justice Department lawyers have spoken publicly before Congress about the circumstances of their departures and their concerns with leadership of the federal law enforcement agency."

Obviously Trump has nothing to hide.... I mean, not on him anyway; where would he hide it, in his diaper?

Trump should buy it (with other people's money)... and rename it Dumblr.

He should be working at DOGE.

They are going to need the muscle soon.

"She Called It EXACTLY...."

Mmmmm... Medicine is tasty today!

How low can the Market go?

Sorry, I was being generous.

Brooks does use some high dollar words, though, so feel free to look them up... because I know you are going to listen to his talk.... rofl.

jajaja!

Of course, your Cult Leader knows more about the Constitution than does the SC, right?

oops.... should have been 'per #3'

You are obviously no David Brooks. So forget my suggestion that you view his little talk on cultural renewal... it's also obviously way over your head; I mean, I wouldn't want you spending all day looking up words and concepts you've never previously encountered.

Turns out you are basically Shrimpdick or Boaz, but with a high school diploma.

Prolly forged, though.

Making excuses for Courts not to follow the Law?

You are just babbling to yourself... yet again.

Mind-numbingly stupid, toxic rant on the value of selfishness.

As expected.

"The battle for Pokrovsk has dragged on for months. Despite high-level cease-fire talks, the war continues, and Ukraine's military says the Russian offensive on the city has stalled"for now. As the latest fighting unfolds, Pokrovsk's remaining residents are paying a heavy price."

Vlad's not worried; his little doggy Donnie has the world distracted with crashing economies.

All is going as planned.

Ah, a morals-free life.

Let's let an educated conservative person speak to you... you know, as a last resort.

This is not a reciprocal trade agreement. Duh.

"The 4th Circuit Court of Appeals rejected the Trump administration's emergency motion to block the order to return Garcia to the U.S. after he was sent to a prison in El Salvador despite having protected legal status.''

Kings don't take orders from Courts.

Blast from the past....

"Ann Coulter Calls Donald Trump 'Abjectly Stupid'

In an interview on Andrew Sullivan's Dishcast on November 5, Coulter said she knew what Trump's character was like before he was elected but supported him anyway because of his immigration policy and pledge to build the wall on the southern U.S. border.

"I was well familiar with what a narcissistic, ridiculous, tacky, vulgar, arriviste this guy was," she told Sullivan.

"That I knew about. The one thing I underestimated, in fact, did not see at all is, I had no idea how abjectly stupid the man is."

"In May 2020, she called Trump "the most disloyal actual ------ that has ever set foot in the Oval Office..." Excerpts

It's not like rwingers weren't warned, even by their own.

(arriviste
/r"v"st/
noun
an ambitious or ruthlessly self-seeking person, especially one who has recently acquired wealth or social status.)

But, Cultists gonna Cult.
