Well, when you're on the Titanic, any lifeboat will do.
Ya gotta take what you can.

Thier lifeboat has a hole in it.

But it's all they got.
Or they've convinced themselves anyway

 

[actaeon277]

They don't look distanced to me.

Behold, the power of the force!

You think they grabbed 1 sticker/badge each time they voted? Or are some of those from when their dogs voted?

They shorted the stock. They in essence borrowed shares worth $10 and sold them for $10, hoping that when the time came to return them they could replace them for $2 and pocket the $8. They were banking on the value of Trump’s company falling greatly. Now they likely did all that with options etc. on paper but the net effect is the same.

A day before the assassination attempt, this private equity company purchased a heap of put options on Trump's publicly traded company. A put option is an agreement where you have the option to sell the stock, at a fixed price, at a later date. You buy these options when you expect a stock to go down, because when the stock is significantly cheaper than the fixed price on your option, you make a lot of money selling it at that agreed-upon date. Then you can just re-purchase the, now cheaper, stock.

Short version, a day before the election, this company made a very large bet that something was going to cause DJT stock to go down, soon.

Thanks to you and ingomike. I am not literate on financial moves.

I only know what a put is because of that guy on r/WallStreetBets who made a very funny noise when he loaded up $57,000 worth of bets that Apple would go down right after their earning report came out.

Apple did not go down.

People trade these things minute to minute on phone apps like they're playing internet casino, it's wild.

Oh man...I know he has balls as big as his head, but this worries me. They really need to be rid of him before their convention.

What?
Please explain.

In the filmmaking industry, "B-Roll" are takes and scenes shot in addition to the principal action scenes and takes. It's done for "establishing" (gives visual location context), supplemental, and alternative camera points of view to intercut with the principal takes. In the movie industry, this is sometimes done after main production in "pick-up" shots requested during editing to facilitate good transitions between main scenes.

The primary or main scenes and takes used to be referred to as the "A-Roll" but that's rarely used now (the "Roll" is a reference to film roll). B-Roll is often done in motion picture production by a "Second Unit" with its own director, and sometimes shot with no sound which would be added later in post-production if its used. For stuff like YouTube and news videos, B-Roll is shot after the main stuff is recorded, to be intercut with it for visually supporting the person doing the talking or interview or reporting. Sometimes the main audio is overlaid onto B-Roll video. In news footage made for broadcast later, when the reporter continues narrating as some other scene is brought up to depict what the reporter is talking about, that visual is often B-Roll that was shot separately. When there's a disconnect between the narrator and scene being depicted in a prepared news segment, it's typically an error in editing made by the editor grabbing the wrong B-Roll video for it.

Frequently used to make a sequel movie real cheap.

I suspect Liberty Sanders wishes Trump to be a bit more low-key so as to reduce his exposure to additional nefarious plots.

The Dems need to be rid of him before their convention.

We have quickly got in over my head. I thought we were talking about conspiracy theories and how other people’s thoughts were ridiculous. Now it is movies and finance? Sometimes I don’t like this place.​
