Is it difficult? Caesars declared bankruptcy in 2015. They tend to be levered up pretty good.

I'll take this one. His behavior has been erratic with these tariffs because it has changed on a daily basis what he is going to do based on the way the win blows. He ennacted tariffs, kept playing with the numbers, adjusting them on a whim, decides he is going to do retalitory tariffs, then someone realizes hey we are about to get really effed because countries are dumping bonds left and right, let's go ahead and pause on the retalitory and stick with 10%. The market is extremely unstable, reflecting his decision making.

Talking in circles here. He's literally doing things the way he has always done things..hence predictable. I also think that you have fallen into the trap of believing your opinion is fact. Playing with numbers...adjusting on a whim is a statement of opinion. You and I literally have no idea if this is a drawn out plan, or he is acting on impulse..no idea

He himself said he paused the tariffs due to people getting “yippe” whatever the hell that means over the bonds. You really think trump thought about that and planned all of this out exactly the way it has gone and all of the adjustments that he has made? That’s pretty far fetched. If you want to say that’s opinion, I mean sure. But regardless whatever you and I think, it looks erratic, and the markets reflect that volatility.

The only predictable thing about Trump are his weekend golfing trips.

Oh, for sure. He even believes his own lies are fact. Take a look over at the Coaching Carousel thread to see what a cornered rat looks like...

Lol you’re such a loser. The funniest part about you is when you declare some kind of victory based on nothing. It’s hysterical. Boomer loser

Great! I'm glad you wanted to revisit this. We can show this board how you blatantly lied to them. And if anyone here wants more proof, please visit the Coaching Carousel thread. I gave him another opportunity to come clean on the Louisville AD - but he whiffed!

Here's ole Ville getting busted on two lies. He claimed:

They are building back, but right now it’s not what you think it is.

Ville was then challenged:

The reason they were #1 is because they had 13 of them. Not saying they are a bunch of bums but in terms of talent most are not top end. Three of their starters are guys who came with Kelsey from Charleston. Kelsey is just that good

But wait, there more!! And it gets so much better:

So I just did a search, and lo and behold, "Louisville basketball program has a top ten NIL valuation in the country"!!! You can't make this shit up!!! Ville fucking lied twice in that original thread.

He lies so much he can't keep track of them anymore.

According to a poll by CBS Sports, Louisville has the eighth-best NIL of any basketball program: https://bigredlouie.com/posts/louisv...y-01j5x9eh3c0j

Oh yea, his big come back on the other thread was that he knew more than CBS. Bahahahahahahaha!!!!
