What are the best strategies to protect my portfolio? I've heard that a downturn will devastate the financial market, so I'm concerned about my $200k stock portfolio.

[jimmy-docs]

Self-proclaimed billionaire.... I understand how much you suffer with food costs.

Also self-proclaimed I think I'll take this food with me.

🤯🤯🤯

[fuzy]

How does a man get to be a billionaire or hope to run an economy without understanding how percentages work ?

[ggs]

So Presidential Medal of Freedom is available for purchase? How much of a donation do I need to make? How much is Miriam Adelson donating? Soldier donate their bodies and lives.

[jfbegley]

This has been pointed out before, but the guy went bankrupt, OWNING a casino. A Cascio usually always wins. Why do you think People refer to Las Vegas as Lost WAGES. He's a fake, and yet people believe his BS about him being better for the economy.

[danadams]

Don'T lies. He projects his wrongful doings and or future wrong doings on others. When he spews conjecture, hyperbole, insults, and lies flip it onto him and you'll have the truth.

[michaelstarnes]

All that food that is laying around will end up in the trash and not even to the people who are homeless right outside the gate. I wouldn't be surprised if all the boxes were empty

[victoriasmith]

Donald Trump has never once said anything about a sales tax on food ever. You are reading things off of the 2025 plan which Trump has said more than once that he is not a part of that plan.

[floridastacker]

"A number of factors caused inflation." No. Printing too many dollars is the only way to inflate our currency. Period.

[diongld]

Healthcare, preserve Medicare/SS & democracy are my primary reason to vote!

[bravefair]

We want to hear from Cyndi Lauper! “Girls, we wanna have fun!”

[johnpaul]

SHE DID NOT ATTACK HIM SHE JUST SHOW PEOPLE THE DIFFERENCES BY SAYING “COMPARE” & IN SENSIBLE WORDS AND NOT SLURRS

[woflespirit]

It was an absurd thing to say about veterans being shot or dead. What a jerk.

[rzrvsol]

Stop repeating his BS and call him out
Why are you not????

[RobertEskew]

Kristen, don't you think it's disrespectful and irresponsible for you to refer to President Biden's comments about the potential Israel/Gaza peace deal as "noise?"

[soniadelbelbelluz]

How can Trump be better at economic policy?? He never talks policy, he just wines and complains and criticises and insults. He NEVER speaks about anything worthy of it.

[merrichty]

I don't care where he is going. It makes me sick. He said what he meant

[michaelcrossley]

These reporters talk about his advisors like he's a kid they're babysitting and they are trying to talk him in line. How pathetic that anyone thinks this guy is fit for office.

[kathy]

He can't talk about policy's BC he has None! 0 zip. EXCEPT PROJECT 2025. " Way no way"

[elliswhiteley]

Both parties never say anything about helping the poor and homeless. Because they don't care. Never have never will
