Paul Krugman Says Markets Will ‘Never’ Recover From Trump; Dow Hits Record High

Leonard Cohen Dead at 82. Wow, that is a big death. Christ, they are ALL dropping off the perch. ALL the baby boomer cultural heroes. All ending up or headed ‘tout suite’ for the knackers yard. And it was meant to last forever fer chrissakes!! Oh dear.
He really did have a dream run though, didn’t he. Recording and playing virtually until the very end. Women still swooning in the aisles. Tearing up as he sang ‘dance me to the end of love’. Magic. Or was it magick? Dunno. Anybody that gets a song about orgasm played at funerals qualifies as some kinda black magician I reckon.
Meanwhile, back in dreamtime … “Paul Krugman Says Markets Will ‘Never’ Recover From Trump; Dow Hits Record High”
Ho hum, so much for the sky falling in.
Of course, it can only fuel speculation that, after all the singing and dancing, the cheerleading, the debates, the threats, the promises, the wild claims, the gnashing of teeth, the jubilation and tears, the clubbings and muggings in carparks and rallies, Trump was, at the end of the day and the going down of the sun … the ‘establishment choice’.
Or at least, as far as the Oligarchy is concerned, it never mattered.
The king is dead. Long live the king!
But who will replace Leonard?
