[r.w.]

Trump must be the president with the most number of regretful voters in American history. It’s actually impressive.

[angie]

This man needs to be impeached and thrown out of office.

[Mikkyr]

I just started investing last year, I bought my first ever stock last year, and now the market is crashing. Should I sell now, or keep holding in the case it goes back up?

[aliasoma]

Someone needs to explain to me how we are the most powerful country on earth while simultaneously being taken advantage of by everyone else.

[saranga]

in other words US is telling China we dont want your products...keep it and stuff it

[markd.]

Capitulating to Trump hurts the national security of every nation that bends the knee. And even if they do capitulate, they still can’t trust the bully. They will look elsewhere for security and trading partners. What’s even crazier: the schoolyard bully in this case is hurting his own side to get what he wants. What an utter psychopath.

In other words, Trump means how much are you going to PAY ME to cancel the tarriffs. Under the r]table of course.

[johnwilliamson]

Basically, what Trump is saying (demanding) is, as ever, “shut up, don’t argue, obey me, acknowledge me as your leader”!

[lucialamprey]

A $4 Trillion with a T market move in the space of a few hours. Truly impressive.

[Joe-ijof]

So... what the hell are the negotiations for!?

[johnbelanger]

I am Shocked!!!
I did not see this coming!!!

[benruffo]

And that concludes another black Monday.

[raymondarchuleta]

Why would we pause tariffs, we’ve only just begun, , , bite the bullet, , ,

[jeffmedina]

Making a deal with Trump is like making a deal with the devil himself.

[Jasonj]

25th AMENDMENT! PUT HIM IN FRONT OF THE PEOPLE! HES A COWARD!

[naldanomavo]

There is no negotiating with an economic terrorist.

[prashanthsubburam]

Insanity has reached all time high if this is the case we are all screwed even the ones who don’t live in US. 😂 good time to become an Amish.

[isaiahmichka]

I wonder who will jump in & buy up uncountable quantities of Top Grade Shares, when their prices are at their lowest.???

[ask_why]

Any "pause" or "roll back" or "delay" would be the cherry on the top of a failed effort.
Frump has one shot at this ... just one. It's time to apply maximize pressure.

[Metal_Auditor]

It seems that President Trump thinks "non-monetary barriers to trade" includes having a population with less purchasing power than Americans.
