U.S. President Trump and his second son Eric were playing golf at the president's country club, despite the U.S. stock market plunging more than 1,500 points for two consecutive days, resulting in a loss of $6 trillion in market value. Sources revealed that Trump’s patience regarding the stock market crash is nearing its limit, and he is closely monitoring market dynamics. Additionally, Eric mentioned on social media that those who negotiate with their father first will be the winners. Although Trump's tariff policy is viewed as part of his economic strategy, there are still doubts about whether he will change this policy.
The U.S. President shared time at the golf course with his second son, Eric, despite the U.S. stock market experiencing a significant decline for two consecutive days, with global investors showing signs of panic. However, sources indicate that the President is feeling uneasy about the current market crash. Eric stated on social media that those willing to negotiate with their father will be the ultimate winners.
After announcing "reciprocal tariffs," the President promptly returned to Florida to play golf. At that time, the U.S. stock market had fallen over 1,500 points for two consecutive days, with a market value reduction of $6 trillion, while he chose to spend time on the golf course. During this turbulent period, White House aides noted that the President had not made any public statements during the stock market trading hours and emphasized that he is closely monitoring market dynamics. A Republican political aide commented that while the President would not be affected by stock market fluctuations, he remains attentive to the market trends.
Individuals who have interacted with the President pointed out that he maintains a calm attitude toward his tariff plan, viewing tariffs as part of a broader economic policy. However, others mentioned that the significant drop in the stock market is approaching the President's threshold of tolerance. Reports indicate that the White House has recently received a considerable number of calls from businesses and lobbying groups, but it remains unclear whether these calls will lead to a change in tariff policy.
Despite trade advisors and the Vice President insisting that the tariff policy aims to restructure global trade, those familiar with the President believe that this is merely a tool for him to reach deals. Eric mentioned on the X platform that happy times are closely related to negotiations, stating that those who negotiate first will become the winners, while those who arrive late may end up as losers.
According to reports, the President has begun discussions with Vietnam, India, and Israel, with hopes of reaching bilateral agreements before the tariffs take effect.
