'Markets are plunging amid fears Trump is going to push the economy into a recession' … you Guys really 'Take the Cake' … you refuse to credit POTUS with nearly 3 years of incredible economic & job growth, but you hang the Albatross of a POTENTIAL recession around his neck ...

Well no shit. Every Trump move was dictated by Putin designed to cripple the American economy

OMAHAGEMGIRL 'It's the economy, stupid!'

Each one of these temporary dips becomes a dream for bargain hunters. Day traders rejoice and get rich.

Hoax🇺🇸
