'Do you think it was luck that got us to the best Stock Market and Economy in our history. It wasn't,' President Donald Trump tweets.

"If they actually did this the markets would crash. Do you think it was luck that got us to the best Stock Market and Economy in our history. It wasn't," Trump tweets.

"If they actually did this the markets would crash. Do you think it was luck that got us to the best Stock Market and Economy in our history. It wasn't," the tweet said. The tweet also preceded the release of a whistleblower complaint on Thursday that alleges Trump used the powers of the president's office

This is not the first time Trump has warned of a market shock upon his impeachment. Last year amid the investigation into Russia meddling in the election, he told Fox News, "If I ever got impeached, I think the market would crash. I think everybody would be very poor."

BobPisani Why would it. Replacing Trump with Pence will have little impact other than maybe the trade war will end. Election is another bowl...if Warren gets elected, markets will panic.

BobPisani Drain the Swamp!!!

BobPisani Are you saying, despots and authoritarian regimes, should stay in power as long as the Stock Market is doing well under them? It seems as though you guys on Wall St, who are benefiting from these regimes are telling voters to keep them in office for the sake of their 401k. MSNBC

BobPisani Markets will rise regardless.

BobPisani It would effectively be no different than Trump losing in 2020, which the markets already have priced-in somewhat.

Who gives a “F”...it has nothing to do with me!! Let it crash!! It needs a correction anyway!!!

What a joke!

Like it hasn’t crashed multiple times the last couple years (facepalm) and is stuck in nowhere land now

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🔥

Does he mean he is controlling the stock market?

Wrong 🤡

I have lost a huge amount of money with trump administration, the market goes crazy with tweets, no analytical techniques works. With Obama everything was rational.

Well, Trump HAS been a flaming wreck...

It is true the market would crash

A bit dramatic he is

He’s trying to sabotage the stock market for his own gain...another trump distraction!

realDonaldTrump my portfolio is rising on impeachment news.

So much for faith in VP Pence.

I really don't think he knows why he is saying just ranting, although it might be true. 😄😄😄

But it would bounce back stronger once there was a law-abiding President that didn't crash it several times per quarter by tweeting. I'd prefer that kind of stock market.

The stock market doesn't care about Trump, only earnings and profits.

Well, I would say 50% chance he is right. You can flip a coin! The market could also rally⁉️📉📈📉📈

I think the whole world will collapse if you are impeached. As being the most crooked President in my lifetime (since FDR) you should be put in a jail cell, notDump Tower!

Oh noooooo! All my millions tied up in stocks will be worthless, I’ll need a wheelbarrow full of cash to buy a loaf of bread like in pre WWII Germany!!! If you people could just leave SS45 alone to commit crimes, grrrr!

Boloney! Even if slight dip, would recover by final bell! Next thing he’ll be saying the earth will tilt!

Money for ethics. The oldest argument in all recorded time. Are companies worth less because an individual who violates the rule of law is removed from office. Time will tell, but hopefully ethics wins out. If not where is the bottom of the ethical barrel ?

Trump has literally had nothing but a bad effect on the economy and the stock market. It goes up on it's own and it goes down when he opens his mouth.

What the hell?! More threats from donnyDingbat.

Oh don't worry, if the SPX hits 2900 there will be China Deal 'news' or a tweet about how they called and want a deal, and/or Mnuchin will jawbone how talks are 'progressing' or 'constructive'. It's so obvious.

PLEASE keep pushing this

So that is a reason to keep a crook out of jail

So!!!!

Trump platform was fear, dont fall for it like did impeach him. Everyone thought gas prices sky rocket after Saudi oil attack but it didnt. Dont let trump scare you impeach him.

I completely agree with Donald Trump. If the Democrats get involved we will not be in a good position with their socialistic agenda. Democrats would be a disaster for America, our freedom and Capitalism.

🤔🤔🤔interesting

Why Trump bothered. Economy of the world is not in order under Mr Trump. Economy cracked.Mere waste.

Not necessarily so.

Good fair and correct value should restored , sooner the better 30 times earnings a little over valued , manipulation needs to stop get rid of Trump and that would help

Beyond narcissism, megalomania.

Bring it bro!

Well worth it!

That’s true.

Yes...the only thing I agree with him.

Oh no!! If only there were a way to make money when stocks go down!! This is a very complex issue and I'm sure he's got a full grasp of the basic understandings.

It’ll be back in a week

That's he's excuse to be a criminal? Jesusfuckingchrist

We are better off forewarned then that America would cease to exist when realDonaldTrump dies eventually at the appointed time.

HikariMagazine Let it

If you believe this to be true I got some $VXX to sell you.

Oh, ok, let’s forget about it then. 🙄

Pathetic scare tactics from a desperate criminal who got caught.

RecoveryForQ

Yeah right🤡👺

The stock market was kind to Barack Obama (once the proper steps were in place for recovery). It is possible to have an ethical president AND simultaneous economic growth! The stock market persevered in spite of Trump - not because of him.

But humanity would be saved.

trump is a demoniac man.

I’ll take that chance.

Democrats oversold and underdelivered with this which might be political suicide in 2020.

Isn't this some sort of meddling in the markets? Imagine if a democrat said this? The shit repugs say...

Oh, it's gonna crash way before that

I have no stocks

We’ll get over it

Worth it

Billionaires already got what they want from him, a huge tax break courtesy of the rest of us. I think they’ll be happy when he’s gone.

We'll survive!

If it’s overvalued it will correct. No Crash. ( only the sounds from WH).

As arsonist Trump sets another house on fire he warns us the business activity for the fire department may go down if he is impeached !

Though the heavens may fall let justice be fine.

That is good. Impeach Trump.

The market likes certainty. There hasn't been any in 2.5 years.

It’s okay. We all got YUGE tax breaks, right? Maybe just us elitists.

realDonaldTrump scaretactic guilty ImpeachTrump

It will eventually crash WHILE he is in office, particularly if he is re-elected whether he is impeached or not. Virtually every President has had to preside over a stock market 'crash' at some point during their tenure.

No. It would probably rally....

It's also crashed about 3 times in the last 18 months.

The market is a massive bubble. It will crash either way.

He's threatening us with financial problems to keep us from doing what's right!!!!

O dont worry about that. Its was a paper gain anyway for inevitable crash.

LOL not true forked tongue...........Stock Mkt. loves normalcy

Pffft. Let it crash. At least we'll be rid of this treasonous toe rag.

Okidoki

Time to buy calls $SPY

Apparently not.

Mmm ...the smell of desperation

Seems like a fair trade to me.
