I'm wondering how Trump supporters are spinning the stock market sell off? They must know something we don't know.
“We saw Marjorie Taylor Greene buy that dip,” Ocasio-Cortez said at a rally in Idaho with Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.). “I got one question for her: How much did you make? How much did you make off of people’s despair? How much did you make off that panic? How much did you make off of that suffering?”
She slammed lawmakers for using their access to “sensitive information” to make trades ― and said Trump’s on-again, off-again tariffs were part of that scheme.
“I hope we see now that it was all about manipulating the markets so that he could quietly enrich his friends who bought the dip before reversing it all in the morning,” she said.
The disclosure this week revealed that Greene bought between about $21,000 and $315,000 in stocks on April 8 and 9, the day before and the day of Trump’s tariff pause announcement, That announcement caused the market to soar.
Trump is a criminal who was found guilty of 34 felony counts of fraud, liable for sexual abuse. Of course he’s lying and abusing and manipulating the stock market, too. When he talks about rapists and criminals, he should look in the mirror.
