Let’s not forget the dry run market crash the media incited last summer. Remember, “Inverted yield curve never lies...recession dead ahead!!!” That strategy used by the media worked, and the market corrected. That was just a dry run, though, for 2020.
If I were a Trump strategist, I would be preparing a card to play for later when the media attempts to crash the market. I would start planting seeds that as Sanders rises in the Democrat field, the spectre of a socialist taking power may spook the markets. Trump could easily tweet out, “Don’t be surprised if we start to see some market erosion due to the rise of the Socialist Sanders.”
I would get out in front of the media’s attempt to crash the market and subsequently blame Trump policies. I think it’s very important to play this “socialist spectre” card first, before the media orchestrates the next crash.
I recall that flash crash years ago
Where have you been? Trump has mention ed this on more than one ocassion.
I was watching a YouTube video the other day and a Trump ad came on bluntly warning about socialism. The implication was “don’t vote Democrat.” I think they are already doing what you suggest.
