Lemon LIVE at 5 | Markets in Chaos, Trump in Retaliation Mode - April 10th, 2025
from The Don Lemon Show · host Lemon Media Network
The market’s been swinging like it’s had three espressos and no breakfast—and Trump’s tariff rollercoaster is to blame. After tanking the economy with massive trade threats, he’s now backing down on some of them, trying to calm the storm he created. Spoiler: it’s not working. But while the market melts down, Trump’s doing something even more alarming: weaponizing the DOJ to investigate former officials who dared to speak out against him—Miles Taylor and Chris Krebs among them. We’re diving into the economic mess and the creeping authoritarianism. Because tariffs are bad—but turning federal law enforcement into a revenge squad? That’s much, much worse.
