You might be right about that. I'm not sure what economic system penguins prefer.

Sell-off worsens worldwide and Dow drops 1,000 after China retaliates against Trump tariffs

Excerpt:

Stock markets worldwide are careening even lower Friday after China matched President Donald Trump's big raise in tariffs in an escalating trade war. Not even a better-than-expected report on the U.S. job market, which is usually the economic highlight of each month, was enough to stop the slide.

The S&P 500 was down 2.9% in early trading, coming off its worst day since COVID wrecked the global economy in 2020. The Dow Jones Industrial Average was down 1,038 points, or 2.6%, as of 9:53 a.m. Eastern time, and the Nasdaq composite was 2.9% lower.

So far there are few, if any winners, in financial markets from the trade war. European stocks saw some of the day's biggest losses, with indexes sinking roughly 4%. The price of crude oil tumbled to its lowest level since 2021. Other basic building blocks for growth, such as copper, also saw prices slide sharply on worries the trade war will weaken the entire global economy.

Could you imagine the outrage if the dems raised taxes 25% and tanked the stock market?

The only thing that a Trumpster takes from the report:

The price of crude oil tumbled to its lowest level since 2021.

Hey look, gas prices are down, so fuck Sleepy Joe and fuck Kamala!

I agree with you here. Not sure why gas is still high when oil prices are down.
