Stocks rise as dollar dips after Trump's walk-back of Greenland threats

NEW YORK/ LONDON, Jan 22 (Reuters) - MSCI's global equities gauge rose on Thursday and the dollar dipped as investors leaned into riskier bets a day after U.S. President Donald Trump dropped tariff threats against eight European countries and ruled out seizing Greenland by force.

So we all can heave a global sigh of relief as Donnie Blowhard sucks this one back in. But never fear, Trump and his Zionists/spooks co-conspirators march on toward their Holy Grail -- Ruling the world!

Personally, I think Trump's blowing hard is an act in and of itself - calling attention to himself. I'm not worried about him starting World War III. Can't do anything about it if he really does push the button down because somebody in some foreign capital called him an asshole. No downside risk in doubting that Trump and his sponsors really are trying to Regime Change Russia and force China back into the 19th Century.

Losing one's handle on objective reality is the universal frustration of our post-reason culture.

So, yes, at some point the Internet dialoguers really do need to stop with "Trump" as an agent and start asking who is acting through him...

"I just don’t see the country that can’t even have unanimous agreement that pedophilia is bad, and as of the writing of this has made zero arrests via the Epstein Files, somehow unite to stop a war." -- Ron Placone

@Cassiodorus Trump babbling incoherently calls to mind the administrations of Ronald Reagan and Joe Biden. The Awesome Power of the Presidency is a lie. The head guy is the head shit catcher in our Empire as the rulers of our society use Presidential dementia as a tool.

@fire with fire

make me think of him as a less erudite, and mostly non compos mentis, version of Milo Minderbinder.

Joseph Heller was right: "That's some catch, that Catch-22..."

Ain't it the truth?
How can we expect donnie blowhard to act any differently?
He is, after all, just a side-show distraction from more serious
issues cascading down around us. Mostly brought on by the Don.
