Trump Brags About Friend’s $2 Billion Stock Market Windfall
Former President Trump recently touted Charles Schwab’s purported $2.5 billion profit, attributing it to recent stock market volatility. This market fluctuation followed Trump’s initial announcement of reciprocal tariffs, which triggered global sell-offs before a subsequent 90-day pause (excluding China) led to a market surge. Trump’s claim linked Schwab’s gains directly to these dramatic market shifts. The video showcasing this interaction occurred amidst ongoing controversy surrounding the tariffs and their impact.
