US President Donald Trump on Thursday claimed his tariff policies are driving record gains in the stock market and bringing “hundreds of billions of dollars” into the country’s coffers, warning that a court ruling against him could plunge America into a “1929-style Great Depression.”
In a lengthy post, Trump said tariffs were having a “huge positive impact” on the economy, with “new records set almost every day.” He cautioned that if a “Radical Left Court” ruled against his administration at this stage, it would be “impossible to ever recover” from the resulting economic damage.
