I don't know what these guys are thinking but wouldn't the House have to come back into session to pass any new legislation?
If Johnson keeps the House away after the Senate votes, isn't it ALL on the GOP House?

The Fed was at cross purposes in late 99. They knew it was a bubble and were tightening BUT didn't want a crash before Y2K.
Amazing it took 3 months after the turn of year to crack bullish sentiment.

Mais non.
I doubt the Parisian sense of superiority in all things French has vanished (it has, admittedly, been years since I last visited).
Speak half decent French anywhere else in France and they are happy.
En Paris - NON.
IOW "Tu gères en français!"
Mais non.

And Lo.
The day came when a critical mass of wealthy market participants realized that contract law was the institution that allowed them to access their ill gotten gains.
And that #Trump was abrogating $Trillion contracts at whim.
Great fear arose - but it was too late.
