We need to divorce from China. They are and will suck us dry. And like any divorce, there will be some tough times before bouncing back. It saddens me to see the hate for trump blind people to the obvious or to root for failure because of shortsightedness

IMPEACH

While the dotard Trump tries to make the argument that if he is not re-elected the economy will tank!

The smart way to stave off US recession and smooth out the world economy is to ensure the people who do the most spending always have money to spend. Unconditional Basic Income of at least $35K/adult SSN for life. Full coverage Medicare for everyone under US law birth to death.

Big institutional traders with their algorithms swing with the ravings of a pathological liar and business idiot Donald Trump. That makes the stock market a poor measure of economic health.

All this winning realDonaldTrump 😂

So much winning. ImpeachTrumpNow

I hope KensingtonTech1 is OK!

And blamed everyone else.

He’s gotta go!!

Watch closely at who is buying stock when he makes the market drop! Maybe we can get him on insider trading!!!’

When will the measure of a country be the health of its air, water, and soil, instead of money?

Even Richard Nixon thinks this guy has come unhinged.

Can’t wait for Trump & his minions to twist themselves in knots trying to explain why the market going ⬇️ is actually a GOOD thing. Will inexplicably be followed by a shift of blame to A.)the media B.)Democrats C.)China D.)Obama E.)All of the Above TrumpRecession

Is the SEC investigating Trump for market manipulation and insider trading?

Corrected headline: Trump Lashes Out Against the Stock Market

So. Much. Winning! 🙄

As expected, trump the incompetent doubles down on incompetence. He has no strategy, no plan and does not care. Vote all GOP out to start the repair.

Don't pay China and buy American

Market's only up 16.3% this year after today's sell off. How will an investor survive?

Stable genius, amirite? 🙄🤡🇺🇸

Let me get this straight - an economic strategy that has proven counterproductive multiple times over the last 100 years or so - didn't work when we tried it again?

Probably betting the market down. $$$ 🖤🤡

China has his number now. They’ve seen his unhinged behavior this past week. He’s freaking out about a possible recession. The thought of a recession on his watch might just be the straw.

'Trade Wars are soooooo easy to win,' said the Buffoon-In-Chief.

The POTUS 'ordered' companies to find somewhere other to do busiess than in China? Really? Ohhh, gop, you have got to be kidding me.

ryanlcooper classic

Not many storms coming off the coast of Africa this Hurricane season because storms are forming between the U S and China.

Trump tweet, or China responding in kind to trump tariffs?

And trump blames it on somebody dropping out of a candidacy. Trump is insane. Why is he still at his desk?

He’s shorting the market, Putin money in his pockets as well as his accomplices’.

SuMoh7 So much winning right, NOT!

What a guy.

I don't possess the wherewithal to figure out this question, 'Who is benefiting from Trump's disruption of the markets?' Someone, something is clearly reaping a reward here, but who, what? And how is Trump collecting?

SuMoh7 I am falling off the chair laughing. Remember when he said trade wars are 'quick and easy to win'?

Everyone in the USA right now. 😉

He just wants to win over China. It is personal

Trump was 'never' capable of understanding how the great big complex 'global' American machine works. Scarier, and so much worse ... he doesn't care, want, or 'ask' to know

Mr. President, surely you did not think that China would be sitting still as their products are more expensive as a result of increased tariffs. Trade wars are not so easy to win! and the trading partners are likely to be losers as well.

This is normal...NOT

So much winning.

I am tired of all this winning.

Trade wars are so easy to win so said the chosen one 2 and a half years ago.

I don't know if you'd consider it germane, but you might update this story to include how Trump is blaming the downturn on Moulton dropping out of the Democratic primary race -- even though there's no logical connection.

Take his fricking phone away from him. He is crazy as an outhouse rat.

Now would be a good time for the GOP to have the Nixon talk with realDonaldTrump

Follow the money. None of this is just coincidence. Which of his friends benefited today from this?

Trump is short selling on the stock market. He makes these outrageous starements and tweets to cause wild market swings.

So year-over-year gains in the S&P? - 1.7%. Add in dividends and you just about get to ZERO. So much for the fabulous Trump stock market.

Market manipulation by fat boy

How much did Trump and cronies make shorting the market?

Next week Trump may just “order” stock prices to rise. 🤦‍♂️

Dump Trump

What a dunce

Good job realDonaldTrump ! Keep it up. No, really though...maybe learning to bully less and negotiate more...you actually might get somewhere. Notice I say might.

How much foreign investment is there in the Stock Market? Is China playing games with our economy?
