TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! The Dow dropped 349 points yesterday. In bizarro Trumpworld, that’s a good day because it wasn't a four-digit dive. Today, some markets regained some of the tariff terror losses of the last few volatile days. However, gyrating worldwide financial markets are in no one’s interest…Rupert Murdoch’s Wall Street Journal and NY Post keep pounding away at The Donald’s MAGA market mayhem. The editorial board of the Post urges Trump to make a trade deal to end the tariff-driven meltdown. Journal editor-at-large Gerald Baker says Donald Trump is “trashing America’s reputation” and  his reckless tariff policy is damaging “the greatest geopolitical brand ever created.” Strong words from the bible of the business world.  National Review is also firmly in  the anti-Trump-tariff camp, pleading with Congress to end the trade war…Tesla news: Sean Hannity is hawking Teslas on Fox News, as well as his website and radio show. The  primetime Trump acolyte has a sweepstakes with a new Tesla as a grand  prize. It’s not as if Hannity has gone EV green. He claims his cheerleading is all about support for cars manufactured in the good old USA…So much for Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick’s stock advice. Three weeks ago, when Tesla shares were trading 20% lower than its high, Lutnick urged consumers to buy the auto manufacturer’s stock. “It’s unbelievable that this guy’s stock is so cheap,” the Trump sycophant said on Fox News, according to CNBC. “It’ll never be this cheap again.” Oops. As of close yesterday, Tesla trades  50% lower than it 52-week December 2025 high…If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting. Howard

Trump’s best PR path forward is to do exactly what he just did: On day one, impose painful tariffs on everyone. This way, you frontload the bad news. And then, after a few weeks of economic turmoil, the other countries will (hopefully) come begging to renegotiate.

TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! Word of the Day: chaos…Virtually every  right wing outlet I screened this morning ignores the Trump tariff market meltdown  Notable exceptions are two Rupert Murdoch-controlled outlets. The Wall Street Journal has two op-eds today questioning Trump’s tariff assault on the world economy: Canaries in the Trump Tariff Mine and Trump’s Tariffs Are a Major Legal Question. The NY Post’s Isaac Schorr thinks The Donald’s tariffs hold scant promise of ushering in even a glimmer of an American  golden age…Who attended a  “Hands Off” rally two days ago? Saturday, I braved the April showers to join the thousands of anti-MAGA madness minions for the march down Fifth Avenue. Please take a look here at my 20+ photos from the Manhattan protest. Meanwhile, WND published a laughable report suggesting demonstrators were bribed with money and bussed into the dozens of rallies that took place nationwide. For the record, I took a subway to my rally….While Trump continues to harass our friendly northern neighbors with insane tariffs and threats of making a key ally the 51st state, it’s worth remembering Canada’s key role during the 1980 Iranian hostage crisis. Canadian diplomats sheltered six Americans from the embassy for almost three months while dozens of other Americans were taken hostage. Watch 2013’s Oscar-winning Argo. Also, read this stunning account from the National Museum of American Diplomacy for some much needed perspective on our nation’s historic alliance with the land of the maple leaf…If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting.
