If Donald Trump accuses an individual of malfeasance without evidence, it is almost a certainty either he or someone associated with him has in fact committed that very same malfeasance to a greater degree.

Omarosa pal says a 'White House Greatest Hits box set' of tapes will keep coming if Trump keeps tweeting

Release the tapes!

It's so ironic that after Trump's evidence-less hollering about Obama spying on him, when in reality it was his own people, Omarosa, Cohen, I wonder who else has tapes of Trump...

For the thing he never claimed?
"...I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can't agree with your methods of direct action;" who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by the myth of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a "more convenient season." -MLK Jr.

If you're illiterate, yes. For those who actually read the earlier post, Vass claimed it was basic logic that it was correlation but not causation; this necessarily implies there was another cause. I'm eagerly awaiting said proof of the other cause.

Just to be clear.. this isn't addressing your made-up assertion that Vassenor stated it had nothing to do.. but all the issues were already there and the move simply acted as an accelerant..

Turkey’s economy has been on a collision course with reality for years, as President Recep Tayyip Erdogan bought his popularity with low interest rates and cheap credit, which has fueled several years of rapid growth in the country’s real GDP. Unfortunately, it has also fueled high inflation and a massive current account deficit: All that growth was greased with easily available loans in foreign currencies, and with the collapse of the lira, that debt has suddenly become unmanageable.

The Turkish bonanza of the past few years can be easily blamed on foreign financiers, who saw Turkey and other developing economies as attractive investment destinations compared to the ultra-low-interest-rate environments being maintained by central banks in the United States and Europe. Now that interest rates are beginning to rise again in these more stable economies, investors are turning away from emerging markets again.

President Donald Trump’s announcement on Friday that he would double tariffs on steel and aluminum imports from Turkey didn’t help, either. Yet when all is said and done, Turkey’s problems today are entirely of its own making.

Investors are wary of Turkey largely because they are wary of Erdogan: The strongman has run the country for the past 15 years (first as prime minister, and since 2014 as president) and in that time has grown increasingly paranoid and authoritarian. He appointed his son-in-law as minister of finance last month and has attacked the independence of the Turkish central bank. Investors are rightly concerned that a more authoritarian Turkey will be a riskier place to do business.

Erdogan also believes in voodoo economics: The purpose of his recent meddling with the central bank has been to prevent it from raising interest rates, which he believes to be the cause of inflation rather than a cure for it. For a while, it was possible to write this belief off as merely a product of his recognition that low rates mean faster growth and faster growth means more votes for Erdogan. Now, however, it is increasingly clear that Erdogan’s opposition to high interest rates is more fundamental and philosophical, guided perhaps by the Islamic proscription against usury.

The Turkish central bank did finally manage to raise its benchmark interest rate a few times over the past few months, and it now stands at 17.75 percent. This ostensibly large number, however, is only slightly higher than the inflation rate, and not high enough to keep prices from rising further. Further hikes are perhaps inevitable, which will likely stem inflation but grind the economy to a halt, creating massive unemployment and suffering — not to mention political problems for Erdogan.

Essentially Trump is neither the sole cause of this, merely the straw on a camel's back.

Now that, I can agree with. Vass, however, seems to think U.S. tariffs imposed have nothing to do with it, which is odd given prior statements on tariffs with regards to other nations.

Well Vass replied to your comment.. This is overwhelmingly the work of U.S. policy.

..if very specific to the Monday drop then, sure, it was that straw but hard to say their current predicament is overwhelmingly the work of US policy when it's all due to shite foundations. The fact that the world is reduced to extremely low interest rates has led to cheap investment and now rates might rise all that can collapse.. so, hey, maybe it is due to US policy but policy from the Bush years of fueling a massive financial crash.. much as Trump is likely doing now while compounding misery by choosing to enter trade wars.

Anyway, I don't see what one can really make of short term market reaction, everyone's panicky at the moment.. which in and of itself is a cause of concern for the entire global economy and I don't think the whims of a half-second minded president helps anything.

I don't think collapsing markets is the best strategy for the US economy.

This will not end in the US triumphantly returning to its global market share of the 60's, it's most likely to lead to crises across the world that will also impact the US detrimentally and, in worse case, create another huge financial shock.

This isn't negotiating the lowest cost for your immigrant built towers for cheap mob-supplied concrete.. it's a mutually beneficial global economy and Trump is playing Jenga.

The problem is that you guys don't tend to actually have good comebacks or points to make (Or faltering points), so you can't help but nitpick typos and autocorrected words because you have nothing better to provide.

It's quite sad, really.

If it's so sad, you could've just said it's a typo instead of trying to say I was wrong; you merely dug your hole deeper.
