Iran has been given the green light by the O administration to hurry up and get a nuke. Shorting the stock market might be the best way to make big quick money in the next few months.

Yep, and the dems also short markets and take bribes for war profits.

An incredibly accurate cartoon.
Accompanied by incredibly inane comments.
In 1942, the US started producing nuclear bombs with a demo in Chicago (quickly moved to a secret location). It took tonnes of metallic uranium and three years.
The recipe calls for tonnes of metallic uranium or a good friend who wants to use you as a cats-paw against a common enemy, neither of which Iran has.
(And, I might mention, neither does the country which ‘definitely’ has the world’s third largest nuclear arsenal, with only the US and Russian arsenals slightly larger.)

“Shorting the stock market might be the best way to make big quick money in the next few months.”
You mean like how Eric Cantor’s investments in a mutual fund that shorts treasury bonds earned him a tidy profit when Cantor’s own actions helped lower the nation’s credit rating?

Yes, that is totally correct. Libs can always everytime make up something that appears relevant to a situation. Totally bogus of course but they like to hear themselves talk.

“Yes, that is totally correct. Libs can always everytime make up something that appears relevant to a situation. Totally bogus of course but they like to hear themselves talk.”
So you’re saying the fact that Eric Cantor personally profited from a situation he helped create has no relevance to the situation he helped create and personally profited from?

Funny toon!
.
Bob Rogers is quickly becoming a “Must read” comic.
.
This particular toon wouldn’t be left or right if it weren’t for the fact that the right is so defensive of anything that whiffs “anti Israeli.”
.
A “Boris and Natasha” themed cartoon on this issue would be funny too.

“Ima-Moron” Very fitting! I like it!
Please flag it. No response is necessary.

Historically, shorting the market when the Dem wins is a very BAD idea!
.
Shorting the market when the Rep wins, also not a good idea, but way better than when a Dem wins!
