CNN's Anderson Cooper played a video compilation of Trump during the campaign season claiming stock market would collapse like 1929 if he did not win the 2024 election.
How's that working out for the country?
COOPER: But repeatedly on the campaign trail, Trump warned a Democratic victory would lead to a decline in markets.
TRUMP: If Harris wins this election, you will quickly have a Kamala economic crash. You're going to have a crash.
If we lose, you're going to have a crash like you wouldn't believe.
COOPER: He also said the only way to avoid a market crash would be to elect him. In fact, one line he used repeatedly throughout much of 2024.
TRUMP: Did you see that? Their stock market crashed when we won. Many people say that the only reason the stock market is up is because people think I am going to win.
And we are a nation whose stock market's continued success is totally contingent on MAGA winning the next election.
We are a nation whose stock market's continued success is contingent on MAGA winning the next election.
If we don't win the next election, the stock market will crash just like it did in 1929.
Any honest broker of information would've predicted that Trump's obsession with yo-yo tariffs would have a disastrous effect on Wall Street.
This is what happens when billionaires run the country. They'll never have a clue about the pain they cause the working class because it never affects them.
