What's this?

No but it seems to happen here all the time

I wouldn't take it personally.

I'd prefer to stay on the political topics, like what the presumed GOPN is saying.

From what I can see in the news, Trump did not say he wanted the whole economy to crash, just the stock market. 😊 But I can't get into that original article posted in the OP.
