Donald Trump’s unhinged all caps meltdown gives away just how clueless of a businessman he is
The DJIA has hit another all time high, and while the stock market is not the sole indicator of the health of the economy, it’s generally seen as a very good economic sign. If nothing else, a rising stock market means that people with money think the economy is going to keep expanding.
Then there’s Donald Trump, one of the worst businessmen in history. He’s lost more money in real estate over the years than most people have ever had to begin with. Trump doesn’t appear to understand the stock market either, if his latest meltdown is any indication.
Trump is now claiming (in all caps for some reason) that “THIS IS THE TRUMP STOCK MARKET BECAUSE MY POLLS AGAINST BIDEN ARE SO GOOD THAT INVESTORS ARE PROJECTING THAT I WILL WIN, AND THAT WILL DRIVE THE MARKET UP.”
Huh? If the election were two weeks from now, then sure, you could say that a rising stock market could be seen as a signal that investors are optimistic about how the frontrunner will handle the economy. But the election is nearly ten months away. For that matter no one really expects Trump to win; most people expect him to go to prison.
So the notion that the stock market is rising because investors think Trump is going to win is, how can we put this, laugh out loud delusional stupid. The kicker is that in the same meltdown, Trump went on to insist that “EVERYTHING ELSE IS TERRIBLE.” Well if that were the case, why would the stock market be going up? Is Trump really this clueless when it comes to business and economics? Well, yeah.
