The Headline on NYTimes.com today at 4pmET.

LEFTY IDIOTS: EVERYONE IS GOING TO DIE

Grab all the anti-tariff meds you can, while you can before it’s too late!

According to the mainstream media, today, a tariff the size of an asteroid hit Wall Street, Manhattan, and as a result everyone in the world is going to die by tomorrow. Those who do not die, will go broke — you will be left with nothing — you will lose your house, car, clothes, retirement, and even the few pennies and nickels hiding under the car mats. It’s over, folks. In short, the world ended today at 4pm, you just don’t know it yet.

STOCKS DROPPED: U.S. equity markets slid on Thursday after President Trump announced his latest strategy for worldwide tariffs, sparking unreasonable fears of a global trade war. The Dow Jones Industrial Average plunged more than 1,679.39 or 3.98%, while the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite fell 4.84% and 5.97%, respectively.

STOCK WERE DOWN, BUT CLICKS WERE UP: Although stocks were down today, clicks to Trump horror stories were up on websites selling gloom and doom, like the NY Times. The same lefty lunatics who told you the jab would keep you from getting Covid, and that Trump was in collusion with Russia, made certain that every article broadcasted hate for Trump, and in tandem slammed all of his tariff ideas. To a place like the NY Times, Trump is the axe murderer who is so horrible, so terrible, so viciously dangerous, that if you DO NOT CLICK the links, you will miss the greatest horror story of all time. And this is why everyone clicks — they all need to see the bloodbath produced by the White House.

THE REALISM: The sky is not falling. A famine is not going to hit America. You are not going to lose everything you own. Your kids and grandkids will not melt into a puddle of mucus, and your pets will not run away. Truth is, history shows us that the stock market will likely return to normal fairly quickly. Your 401(k) will be back to where it was yesterday, if not higher. On the other hand, Wall Street firms that profit heavily from market volatility will make a fortune—they thrive on days like today when the markets plummet, only to rebound even stronger within a week. And yes, the NY Times will also make a pretty penny today per all the clicks.

THE GOOD NEWS: Trump’s plan (strategy) is already working. National Economic Council Director, Kevin Hassett appeared on Fox News today. He said tariffs are bringing manufacturing back to America: "It's already happening... There were a whole bunch of auto jobs created in the last jobs report. The fact is people are starting to onshore production in the U.S."

Example: Stellantis announced today that it is pausing some production in Mexico and Canada as the automaker tries to navigate President Trump's auto tariffs.  “We are continuing to assess the medium- and long-term effects of these tariffs on our operations, but also have decided to take some immediate actions, including temporarily pausing production at some of our Canadian and Mexican assembly plants," Chief Operating Officer Antonio Filosa told employees in an email on Thursday, when Trump's 25% tariffs on imported vehicles and auto parts took effect.

WHAT TRUMP SAID: "The markets are going to boom. The stocks are going to boom. The country is going to boom — and the rest of the world wants to see is there any way they can make a deal," said the president on Thursday. "I think it's going to be unbelievable."

BILLIONAIRE WARNING: Billionaire investor Bill Ackman is sending a clear message to world leaders hoping to strike a deal with the U.S.: Don’t wait too long.

Ackman wrote the following on X:

“My advice to foreign leaders is that if you have not already reached out to President Trump, you need to do so immediately. Trump is, at his core, a dealmaker who sees the world as a series of transactions. Based on his track record to date with foreign governments, law firms, and universities, he is a tough, but fair negotiator. He loves to make deals and he loves to get things done promptly. I expect Trump will reward the early dealmakers with fairer deals than those that wait to sit down at the negotiating table. Countries that respond with additional tariffs on our goods will be severely punished. The carrot and the stick writ large, Big Boy style. The Art of the Deal will soon be sold out on Amazon. But if you are running a foreign country that is now subject to massive tariffs, don't wait to read the book. Just pick up the phone. Call the President, and make a deal. Just some advice from a friend of the global economy.”

DML SAYS: I wrote this to you yesterday, and I repeat it again today. I have my money tied to the stock market, so my retirement plan took a hit today — and I am not happy — but I know it will all come back better, bigger, stronger, and more lucrative. Job growth in America will be great, and opportunities will be aplenty.

PRO TIP: never forget the world needs us more than we need it. Until that fact changes, I’ll invest in America’s future under the sort of leadership that Trump brings. I want everything in my house to eventually read, MADE IN AMERICA. You should too.

BOTTOM LINE: Hating on Trump is a sport, the better you are at it the more attention you get. So, yes, every article is going to slam Trump because the stock market dropped. Gee whiz. As if the markets have never dropped before? Take a look around — you will see the sky is tact — trucks are still moving, planes are still flying, and the line outside the APPLEBEES is out the door. Today was NOT the end of our economy.

What amazes me is this: The worst single-day stock market drop under Biden's presidency, measured by point decline in the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA), occurred on September 13, 2022, when the Dow fell 1,276 points, a decline of approximately 3.9% (remarkably in line w/ today's drop). The Biden drop was driven by hotter-than-expected inflation (Biden's fault), which raised fears that the Federal Reserve would continue aggressive interest rate hikes to combat inflation. Amazingly, the NY Times did not appear to offer any major editorial or articles directly attacking Biden over the market drop. The paper’s tone was more analytical than accusatory, focusing on market mechanics over political blame. Incredible coincidence? No!

In the end, as I mentioned on my podcast today, two things matter. First, kids who grow up dreaming of being filmmakers never imagine themselves becoming film critics. But then they grow up — and those who lack the talent to create a film end up as critics because the only way they can be in the "business" is by tearing down those who accomplished what they could not. The same applies to politicians like Sen. Rand Paul, who failed twice as a presidential candidate and now makes headlines by attacking Trump's tariffs. There are others like him — and in the coming days, you'll see many Republicans align with Democrats on this issue. These are people who could never match Trump's success in politics or business. So, you can trust them and their critiques, or you can trust me and Trump. Better yet, you can trust your vote.
