Pic Of The Moment: The Economist Updates Its Global Risk Assessment
Amazing, no amazing, right? I made it on to that Brit magazine list, the Economist, OK? By the way the British are fine people, good people.... and they love me! Never mind those politicians debating whether to ban me. They're idiots, am I right?
So anyway I'm ranked behind a Euro Zone breakup and ahead of destabilization of the world economy because of jihadi terrorism.
Pretty good, right?! No, I mean who wants boring, OK?! OK?!

The Economist Intelligence Unit released its updated global risk assessment, ranking the election of Trump a 12 on a scale of one to 25 — the same number it assigned to the possibility that jihadi terrorism would destabilize the global economy.
The firm pointed to a number of reasons, including Trump's hostility toward free trade, his accusing China of being a "currency manipulator, his advocating the killing of terrorists' families, and his proposal to move troops into Syria to fight ISIS and take its oil.
This appeared to be the first time the EIU had rated a presidential candidate's election as a global risk, the firm told Politico.
