The right number is zero.
Do professional day traders even make 21,000 in a year? That’s 57 trades a day. That’s wild.
Edit: 80 if you exclude weekends, even more if you exclude holidays.
Damn, he trades almost as frequently as he tweets. That’s crazy
Assuming 8 hour days, thats a trade every 6 minutes.
In magamath, 13=21,000. And don’t get me started on the bothsiderist geniuses that love to debbie downer everything and build moral equivalencies between the two parties.
I saw some Republican dipshit politician on television waving away the blatant corruption of the Donvict crime family just this very week and then pivoting to Hunter and Joe, FFS. Because, hey, Donvict is being transparent about it argle bargle something something Hunter and Joe covered it up.
🤣
“yeah, but both sides are bad though!!!”
Side 1 - 13
Side 2 - 21,000
Both numbers are unacceptable, Trump’s is just a much higher level
Whoooosssssssshhhhh
‘I will eat literal shit because its the same as dark chocolate’ - R voters and 2024 sitouts.
Now do Congress.
I realize this is a tall ask… I can wait.
If you think it’s an interesting stat, you could also collect the data, rather than waiting for someone else to do it for you.
I didn’t start it. This should be part of OP’s investigation if he really wants to be thorough and not give a misleading report.
Very misleading to compare the current president and his predecessor directly using one specific metricl, yes.
Make my point for me
I didn’t make the thread, chief. What use is knowing who won but not the devils in the details?

“How could Obama make Hunter and Joe do this?”
–magashitferbrainz, probably
It’s ok the guy has dementia…he doesn’t realize that he’s basically closer to the eternal life than most of us. Can’t take anything with you. Not even clothes.
If I was the guy, I would spend my money on happiness.
~57.5 trades/day! Every day!
Almost like between that, watching Fox News, and napping, he doesn’t do anything other than agree with whatever the last person told him.
Don’t forget posting hundreds of messages a day to social media, and his regular “rallies”.
No wonder he’s asleep all he time
I can envision the Trumper response:
“He had Hunter do the trades FOR him”
Or maybe
“Well obviously! The Biden crime family only does backdoor deals. At least Trump uses the same stock market as everyone else!”
Which one will the right-wing propaganda machine go with, I wonder?
Why not both?
How many wars did Biden start to boost those 13 stocks?
How many fishermen did he bomb? How many Iranian schools?
Should be 0
End of story
A President could do a tremendous amount of damage with even 1.
So, serious question.
How much time would it take to do about 60 trades a day?To make the trade? Not actually that long. Planning and evaluating take longer, but he’s inevitably not the one pushing the buttons or making the plan, which is also not something that needs to be done for each one.
It takes me longer to move money between my checking and savings accounts.
The concerning thing isn’t the time investment, it’s the active nature of financial involvement in a situation where there’s a major conflict of interest.
Stock trading isn’t automatically problematic for an elected official, but it’s very easy to produce the appearance or actuality of improper conduct.
The safest route is to turn control over to a third party who doesn’t know who they’re managing.That would be about a day traders worth of time… probably 4-5+ hours/day depending on variable factors. It’s definitely an aggressive trading strategy and not something I can see a “super busy president who looks out for his people” able to accomplish normally.
Trump himself isn’t doing the trading.
Yeah well, he’s such a high level business genius its natural that he increased his net wealth by $2b a year while president. the real question is how he managed to not make any money in the first 79 years of his life. /s
Games are easier with cheat codes.
Because he’s an absolute shitty business person who’s entire plan was to send in lawyers who did nothing more than file infinite extensions until the other side ran out of money…and embezzling money from “charities”.
So he is a better businessman than a politician or even a person.
Business man? Nah, that’s like saying someone’s “lucky” for playing in a rigged casino.
He’s a great fraud.
Hmm… If frauds can help your business despite making you a bastard, why can’t you then still be classified as a good businessman?
I’d personally argue operating outside of the law disqualifies you from being a good businessman. If I can win a game of chess by moving the pieces when you’re not looking, am I a grandmaster?
Same with business. Using privileges and loopholes that other people don’t have access to is not being good at business.
The same way having your father loan you a million dollars disqualifies you. I can beat Mo Farah if I run a shorter race, who’s the better runner?
Okay, makes sense. Then, Trump is only good in making people laugh of him.
