Are there triggers to stop zer0 from speaking. Turn off his teleprompter. Do it for the economy and the children.

Watch markets sink further as he speaks.

Let’s see a split screen of the big board and Nero speaking.

There’s nothing there folks, turn out the lights.

My apologies if someone else posted this, but...

Since 10:00 EST the Dow was averaging a daily loss of about 320. But once a$$hat opened his mouth in front of the cameras, the hemorrhaging began anew and now it's off 450.

Why won’t he look at the camera? Will he start to cry if he looks away from his tellies?
