TRUMP RECESSION: Stocks crash, economy cracks, doom spiral
The stock market is crashing, layoffs are rising, inflation is up, and consumer confidence has plummeted under Donald Trump’s economic policies. Wall Street is panicking over his tariff obsession and global trade threats, with major companies like Tesla and Microsoft seeing massive losses. Despite this, Trump admits his policies are causing pain but offers only vague promises of a "transition period" while the economy worsens.
MEDIA BLACKOUT: Trump using SHORT STAIRS which PROVED Biden was disabled
Right-wing media previously claimed that Joe Biden using the short stairs on Air Force One was proof of his frailty, yet they are silent now that Donald Trump is doing the same. Despite videos showing Trump dragging his right leg, bruises on his hands, and his failure to release a promised physical exam, corporate media is largely ignoring the issue. The real issue isn't the stairs themselves but the blatant double standard in how Biden and Trump’s health concerns are covered.
From yesterday’s show:
Billionaire Trump & Elon have decided YOU must sacrifice
Donald Trump’s tariffs and layoffs are driving up costs and causing job losses, while billionaires like Elon Musk profit. Conservatives frame this economic pain as necessary or blame Joe Biden. In reality, these policies weaken the country and benefit only the wealthy. The billionaire class decides who suffers—and it’s not going to be them.
From yesterday’s show:
Trump: SHUT UP about egg prices
Donald Trump promised to lower grocery prices immediately but has since shifted blame to Joe Biden and bird flu. Now, just six weeks into his presidency, he is reposting articles telling Americans to stop complaining about high prices. If Biden had done this, right-wing media would be in an uproar, yet Trump faces little backlash.

What no one seems to be aware of, but which has to be understood to know what is going on, is that Trump wants a depression. He wants, and is consciously trying to engineer, an economic collapse. The morbidly rich LOVE economic downturns. That is when they can pick up the failing buisneses for pennies on the dollar. All the farms that will be going under? Billionaires will be buying them up cheap to feed the oligarchy. That sad, Trump face that often accompany storeis about the coming depression? That should be a happy face. The morbidly rich are addicted to wealth and power, and they do not care who they hurt.. It's about time the American people staged an intervention.
