He’s Baaack!

Barack Obama rears his ugly head again, claiming he’s the one responsible for the great economic recovery of the past two years. Yeah, sure, you lying piece of dog doo!

The economy remained in the doldrums all eight years that Obama was in office. That’s because he not only added enormously to the tax burden, but imposed reams upon reams of red tape and bureaucratic regulations.

Looks like President Donald Trump did have a magic wand! Abracadabra, mofo!

Double time! That’s right. Mark Dice is so popular with so many of you that we’re giving you not one — but two — videos from him today.

In this second video, “What a Hero!,” he takes a look at Cory Booker, D-N.J., the Democratic clown from the Senate Judiciary Committee who violated Senate rules and released classified Brett Kavanaugh documents.

Booker’s logic in releasing these documents was transparent. He wants to run for President in 2020, so he’s already doing everything to try to focus the spotlight on himself.

 

 

The Next Breakout Nations

Ruchir Sharma, head of the Emerging Markets Equity team at Morgan Stanley Investment Management, says China, Brazil, Russia and South Africa might have reached a plateau in growth, and that India has no more than a 50 percent chance of sustaining its good performance. So which countries will become breakout nations, maintaining high growth or exceeding expectations in the coming years?

Sharma identifies four prospects — Turkey and Indonesia, two Muslim democracies, have strong credentials to become the next breakout nations. And in Europe, he sees the top two candidates as being Poland and the Czech Republic. He projects a mixed outlook for the United States, saying innovation and entrepreneurship could help the nation to beat expectations, but we have pressing current problems that demand attention.
