He’s definitely not wrong. 9 of the 10 largest point drop in history for the Dow have been under his presidency

We really just pretending like 6/10 weren't covid related and not tied to anything trump did? I mean, I think he's a dipshit just as much as anyone, but takes like these just come across as stupid. You also need to look at this list as a % to make it meaningful, otherwise pretty much every subsequent president will also dominate the list.

ETA: These drops are notable as being the single largest drops (by %) directly and wholly caused by a President's unilateral actions. That's the damning part. But I get that doesn't read as well as a twitter burn.

As if his handling of COVID was anything but abysmal. All he had to do was sit down, shut the fuck up and go "Listen to the experts" and sell little red MAGA masks for $20 and he would've sailed into a second term with no issues whatsoever and made a killing doing it. Instead he had to get up on stage and tell people to take horse dewormer and inject bleach and now millions of people are dead.
