You’re on!

You so you guys know, I didn't want to be a dickface so I gave @Vision a chance to double down on the 9ers this weekend, Pete wisely declined

It was very gracious of you since they were 13 point underdogs and then had a bunch of extra injuries during the game hahaha

Europe can wield this $8 trillion ‘sell America’ weapon as Trump reignites a trade war over his Greenland conquest ambitions

“European countries own $8 trillion of US bonds and equities, almost twice as much as the rest of the
world combined,” Saravelos pointed out. “In an environment where the geoeconomic stability of the western alliance is being disrupted existentially, it is not clear why Europeans would be as willing to play this part.”

As Trump threatened to upend global trade and finance last year, Danish pension funds led the charge in reducing their dollar exposure and repatriating money back home, he said.

Such moves represented the “sell America” trade that saw investors dump dollar-denominated assets amid doubts that they would continue serving as safe havens or still deliver attractive returns.

“With USD exposure still very elevated across Europe, developments over the last few days have potential to further encourage dollar rebalancing,” Saravelos added.

So, twice the size of Alaska. Very helpful, thanks.

You got me curious.

Greenland = 836,330 sq. mi.
Alaska = 665,384 sq. mi.

So, Greenland is only 25% larger.

Alaska was Seward's Folly, Greenland is Trump's Folly.

Carson Beck's press conference about being a student at Miami during this run. Unbelievable.

And the browns don't beat anybody and all of their opponents suck.
