After a disastrous day in the stock market “attributed 100% to the words of Donald Trump,” MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell describes how Donald Trump backed down from suggestions he might fire Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, revealing that “there is one person in America more powerful than Donald Trump.”

  1. I wish we went back to when we’d never hear nonstop news from the white house 🙂

    He could have literally done nothing but play golf every single day for 4 years and the economy would have still come out ahead.

  2. I am from and living in Greece.
    From the first days of Trump's announcement that he would be running for the 2024 elections – and having in mind what his financial and legal status was – it was obvious to me that he would use any possible way to benefit himself, always in cooperation with some of the world's billionaires, who would also benefit from his actions.
    That scheme became much more clearer after his very first days in office.
    It is not just Musk and the rest of the tech billionaires that must have agreed to this, but many more from any other kind of the industry and ithe nvestment world, quite possibly not only from the USA.
    If Trump hadn't been in office right now, chances are he would be in jail and bankrupt.
    Although he is clearly enjoying the mess he has created, in reality this mess is his very last chance to save his skin!

  3. Trump wants so much to be in the "Putin" fold, he is activating trying to destroy the American economy to get Putin's acceptance. North Korean Leader, Kim Jong Un called Trump correctly, a DOTARD.

  4. Congress and the Supreme Court’s needs to be dismantle their a complete failure especially Roberts justice s they failed their oath of office, the American people needs say who seats on the Supreme Court bye voting them in that position?

  5. Thank you Mr. Lawrence for Telling the TRUTH about tRump STUPIDITY 😂😂😂 CANADA 🇨🇦 STRONG. tRump hands off CANADA 😮😮😮

  6. trump appointed Jerome Powell in his first administration. Probably the best thing he's ever done…
    and I'm sure now that it was only a fluke.

  7. I like this guy, but every time I see him I can’t help but think he looks just like David Hyde Pierce from the show Frasier 😊

  8. What a disaster the orange man is surprisingly turning out to be here i though he was perfectly sane perfectly competent. Who would have thought he would be a dumpster fire of a president hmm….🤔
