In reply to the discussion: DOW is tanking. Thanks, you stupid orange moron. [View all]EndlessWire
(8,103 posts)15. One of the first things
rumpy did in his first term, was to influence the stock market. I don't remember what it was, but he said something, and the market reacted. I think his eyes opened wide at that point, as he realized his power.
I think what he's doing is on purpose, the purpose is to destroy our nation, and that he works for someone else, not us. There is no way that a person with even average intelligence could fail to see the consequences of his policies.
I also think that HE thinks his tariffs will somehow bring Canada and Greenland to their knees. Those two countries are as we speak moving away from us. Mexico is more than willing to fight us. So, trumpy isn't doing us any favors.
This is all for him, and him alone, except for President Musk.

Or that when Trump was desperate, bankrupt and needed money, he got "Dirty money" from Russia.

Sooner or later big money is going to step in to stop Trump before he bankrupts us all.

Is Trump "screwing" with the market, making it go up and down with "tariff talk".
