Outrage Over McConnell Comparing The GameStop Fiasco To Communism
Many Reddit investors who are invested deeply into GameStop were outraged at the statement, one Twitter user named “SPY315500C” said, “nobody cares you ugly fucking turtle looking ghoul, I’m only 16 and I turnt my Wendy’s paycheck of $850 into your yearly salary off these $GME calls bum.”
Other leading economic leaders like Michael Burry said on Twitter “What the turtle man doesn’t understand is that this is the free market at work, people will only pay for something if they think it is worth that price.”
McConnell later apologized for making these statements but gave a word of caution to investors stating “This is a very risky situation, you could lose money, however if you want to make money simply invest in whatever I am invested in because my insider *coughs* deep economic awareness allows me to make smart investments which is why my portfolio is up over 1000% since being elected.”
