Gawd ... what a gaslighting -- blaming others on your INCOMPETENCE !

[JoeAsten]

The market is down because of Tariffs. He can’t say it isn’t. He needs to leave the tariffs in place and let the market catch up. Stop playing the up and down.

So far, my vote for Trump has cost me about $30, 000. I am sure there is more to come.

[janetbrown]

You all know he's lying. What's wrong with you people. Eggs have not come down, in fact they have gone up at some stores. You want to know when he's lying, when he talks. His partners in crime need to let him know about eggs, & everything else, while he is going out buying a car.

2 economies side by side: 1st one 45, 000 Dow, 2.9% inflation, low unemployment; 2nd one 41, 450 Dow, 3.5% inflation, unemployment rising, you tell me which one is the terrible economy.

Tariffs were announced on 2/19. The stock market started falling on 2/19 (sources - the Dow, S&P 500, Nasdaq Index) 😂😂😂😂

[HBNL]

This is a good example of fraud and abuse (of power).

[thephantom]

Which USA is this guy living in ??? Where is eggs down?? And the price of anything for that matter??😂😂😂

[unboundbytiffany]

What what. Gas prices just jumped for the first time in years where I live? Say what???

[TheIntelWave]

so easy to say now, Kamala/Waltz would be leading us into a new golden age. We got screwed

[ryandigiacomo]

This putz with constant blame game he can’t be a man and own up to anything or take accountability

[whatalifewhataprice]

😂😂😂 Who here predicted that Chump would blame Biden for crashing the stock market? Show of hands. 🙌 🤣 🤣 🤣

[EMendonca-mpmf]

This is just what I needed after a crappy day. One of his dumbest comments. And that’s saying something. 😂

[JamesArsenault]

Tariffs did bring down US economy in 1893 and 1930.

[cashaeleatemla]

The decline in the three major indexes extends a market rout that has rattled Wall Street and raised concerns about when the bleeding will stop.

Trump has cautioned that tariffs could cause “a little disturbance, ” and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick said last week that “the fact that the stock market goes down half a percent or percent, it goes up half a percent or percent, that is not the driving force of our outcomes.”

[azucena]

You president Trump Forget Biden and works for your country

[sam.horganhorgan]

Investing because they know whats happening before the rest.

[patticakez]

Price of eggs are so high since Trump got in the office what a big orange turd

[maddihall]
