Today the market fall down go boom (he slathered our economy in honey and staked it down next to a fire ant hill)

Americans will immediately feel sticker shock on imported products, such as coffee and parmesan cheese. So that’s it – over a century of economic policy dumped in a ditch for no coherent reason. And what’s the president doing? He’s jetting off to Florida to watch golf. And also attempting to vaguely reassure the American people. “I think it’s going very well,” Trump said on Thursday. “The markets are gonna boom. The stock is gonna boom. The country is gonna boom.” Yes, boom, the traditional sound for when everything stays intact. And he’s right. Today the market fall down go boom. —Stephen Colbert


“Everybody feeling liberated? Because … yeah. Today was the first day of trading on Wall Street since Trump slathered our economy in honey and staked it down next to a fire ant hill. And the Dow Jones nosedived 1,679.39 points, joining the S&P 500 and Nasdaq in having their biggest drop since 2020. So, worst day for our economy since Covid. Just a little reminder: this time, he’s the disease.” —Stephen Colbert

There’s nothing more important than the people who park our cars (victim of a diseased organism)


House Speaker Paul Ryan this afternoon issued a formal statement ruling himself out as a potential replacement candidate if there is a contested Republican convention. And you know things are bad in the Republican Party when people who aren’t even running are dropping out of the race. –Seth Meyers


The White House has announced that President Trump will donate his first quarter’s salary of over $78,000 to the National Park Service. Said Trump, “There’s nothing more important than the people who park our cars.” –Seth Meyers


A restaurant in Pennsylvania has started selling a pizza inspired by Hillary Clinton topped with buffalo chicken and hot sauce. They also have a Trump pizza, it doesn’t have any toppings but the crust is folded over to hide it. --Seth Meyers
