Cue the panic. Wall Street just had a full-blown meltdown after President Trump followed through on his promise and slammed tariffs on dozens of countries who’ve been milking the United States dry for decades. The media’s running around like it’s the apocalypse, markets dropped $2.4 trillion in a single day, and every hedge fund manager is sweating through their tailored suits. But you know who’s not panicking? President Trump—or anyone who actually understands the long game.
Let’s get one thing straight: this isn’t about playing nice with the global elite or keeping Wall Street fat and happy. This is about fixing a rigged system where foreign countries get to slap tariffs on our goods, manipulate currencies, subsidize their industries, and then whine when we dare to respond. For years, Washington let it slide. President Trump just threw a wrench into the globalist playbook, and the financial world is having a tantrum.
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt hit the nail on the head when she told CNN: “Trust in President Trump.” Simple, direct, and the exact opposite of the spin you’ll get from the usual suspects. She laid it out: this is a national emergency, and Trump’s doing what no other president had the guts to do—confront it head-on with the same economic formula that powered record growth in his first term.

"To anyone on Wall Street this morning, I would say trust in President Trump.""This is a president who is doubling down on his proven economic formula from his first term. We saw wages increase. We saw inflation come down. We had a Trump energy… pic.twitter.com/iIE2LEaRka

Of course, the experts (you know, the same ones who didn’t see the 2008 crash or the pandemic collapse coming) are now predicting a 60% chance of recession in 2025, according to JPMorgan. China, feeling the sting, responded with their own 34% tariff on U.S. goods. But President Trump? He’s not losing sleep. On Truth Social, he told investors to “buy the dip”—and if history’s any guide, he’s probably right. This is the same guy who turned a depressed economy into a juggernaut the first time around.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio, speaking from Brussels, backed the move too. “Markets are crashing because companies are embedded in modes of production that are bad for the United States,” he said. In other words, if your business model depends on cheap labor in China and unfair trade deals, maybe it’s time to rethink your strategy.
So yeah, the market dropped. But it’s not the end of the world—it’s the beginning of a reckoning. We’ve been subsidizing the global economy for decades, and now, we’re putting America first. Again.
