What evidence do you have of that?

I don't recall Jim saying that Trump is the second coming. Could you verify that? Nor do I recall Jim saying that Trump is a God. Maybe you could also verify that?

The markets go up and they go down on a daily basis due to various events and political statements. I don't think you would prefer that various problems should not be addressed because that would negatively affect the market. I may be wrong, maybe you would prefer that.

There was no way to correct various countries imposing tariffs on certain US goods, nor the misappropriation of American intellectual property without retaliating or threatening to do so. Trump has laid down the gauntlet, but also opened the doors to negotiations that can lead to the removal of American tariffs--the old carrot and stick thing. There are, at least, movements now in that direction. Even merely signaling that should have a positive effect on the market. And accomplishing zero tariffs should stimulate it even more.

Pete, how many times has Jim specifically told you he can't stand Trump but thinks he has done some good things? Now you use a phrase like second coming..... seriously,are you slow or just stupid?

It's difficult to have a serious conversation sometimes. They can't respond to what you actually say, so they respond as if I said something like "Trump is the second coming".

Nothing dishonest there, nope.

When your beliefs render you incapable of responding to what someone says, it might be time to re-examine those beliefs.
