On April 2, 2025, Donald Trump declared that it is “Liberation Day,”<\/em> in America due to his imposition of punitive tariffs on most of the world that were widely predicted to result in inflation, recession, and unprecedented deliberate harm to the American people and American businesses.<\/p>\n

Immediately after Trump’s announcement, the stock market went into free fall, wiping out about $6 trillion in assets and depleting the savings of millions of investors and private citizens, especially seniors who would need those funds as they prepare for retirement. But not to worry, as Fox News warned their glassy-eyed viewers to clam up, because any criticism of Dear Leader and his disastrous economic policies were unpatriotic.<\/p>\n

On Wednesday morning Trump did what he swore he would never do: Reverse course and rescind his tariffs. Despite the fact that he adamantly objected to any reports that he was considering to pause his plans, he has now paused his plans for 90 days. And he got absolutely nothing in return for doing so. He posted a rambling comment<\/a><\/strong> on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social<\/a><\/strong> that said “I have authorized a 90 day PAUSE, and a substantially lowered Reciprocal Tariff during this period.”<\/em><\/p>\n

However, there is another decidedly troubling component to this situation. At 6:37am ET, Trump posted a comment saying that “THIS IS A GREAT TIME TO BUY!!!”<\/em> Then a few hours later he caved on his tariffs that he previously insisted were “here to stay<\/a><\/strong>.”<\/em> So by announcing that it was a great time to buy, when he knew that he would shortly be pausing the tariffs, was he in violation of stock manipulation and\/or insider trading laws?<\/p>\n
