"Of course there is a massive market downturn. Kamala is even worse than Crooked Joe. Markets will NEVER accept the Radical Left Lunatic that DESTROYED San Francisco and California, as a whole. Next move, THE GREAT DEPRESSION OF 2024! Can't play games with MARKETS. KAMALA CRASH!!!" posted convicted felon President Trump at 9:45 AM EDT on August 5, 2024, apparently connecting a one-day Dow Jones drop of 1,033 points to his poll numbers.
Then it was "VOTERS HAVE A CHOICE - TRUMP PROSPERITY, OR THE KAMALA CRASH AND GREAT DEPRESSION OF 2024, NOT TO MENTION THE PROBABILITY OF WORLD WAR lll IF THESE VERY STUPID PEOPLE REMAIN IN OFFICE. REMEMBER, TRUMP WAS RIGHT ABOUT EVERYTHING!!!" at 9:59 AM EDT (Fun fact: The "III" in "WORLD WAR III" was actually three lowercase Ls).
And then "TRUMP CASH vs KAMALA CRASH!" at 10:02 AM EDT on the same day.
As of 9:43 AM EDT on Thursday, 13 minutes after the opening bell, the Dow Jones is down 1,131 points at 2.75 percent, the S&P 183.61 points/3.29 percent, the Nasdaq 805.14 points/4.56 percent.
