    Cramer was always a sucker. This became obvious in 2008.

    “Fanny Mae and Freddy Mac are fine!” *obnoxiously forced funny-sound from one of his props*

    And when called out in this, his defense was that he never would’ve thought that the CEOs he had on as guests were willing to lie to inflate their share price.

      Yep. Oh it will open down bigly. But I expect the day to end up sideways or marginal. If Cramer ends up being right about anything, then I’m certain I’ve switched timelines.

    Jim Cramer is a…Market Analyst? I’d call him a media personality. More like Kim Kardashian for old white people.

    Cramer is a mouthpiece for the investor class, which is probably like the top 5%. He’ll say anything a CEO wants him to say and basically supports massive deregulation. While the billionaire class isn’t really concerned, the millionaires don’t like this.

      So what you’re saying is that him speaking up about Trump is a clear sign that his bosses wants him to?

        A lot of investors are coming out of the woodwork, either with timid public comments or via reporters. Kramer is likely being used as a mouthpiece for these comments.

        They probably thought Trump was going to given like his first term, not really doing anything except pushing tax cuts and gutting regulators. That the S&P500 is down over 12% from last month can cause major issues for some investors. Not every investor is Warren Buffett.

    I hope Jim hops out a window in despair.

    Then one day in the far future, I’ll feel like I can visit the US again, solely so I can find his grave and piss a stream of hot, asparagus-scented piss on his headstone.

    Didn’t want to link xitter but couldn’t find another source of clip. I’ll replace if anyone has alternative
