Trump's Bleak Stock Market Prediction Instantly Undermined By Fox News Graphic
HuffPost
The former president made some scary claims about the economy at the same time stock prices were soaring on Thursday.
Donald Trump’s vision of an American economy “nightmare” was spoiled by a well-timed Fox News ticker on Thursday.
During a press conference at his New Jersey golf course on Thursday, the Republican candidate for president predicted that the stock market would spiral if Vice President Kamala Harris is elected to office this November.
But as he warned that the country was on the brink of a crash as big as 1929, a graphic on Fox News quickly compromised his claim.
While the conservative news network aired the former president’s long-winded speech, soaring Dow Jones numbers appeared at the bottom right corner of the screen, showing the market had gained 554.67 points and ticked up 1.4% that day.
Trump’s dubious stock market warning was far the only outlandish moment during his press conference.
