Washington, D.C.
In a display of economic resilience that many are calling “the greatest turnaround for the ages,” the U.S. stock market surged to another record high on Thursday, effectively ignoring the “ghost regulations” from the previous administration that are still trying to choke the American commuter at the pump.
Despite a series of “economic landmines” left behind by Barack Obama and Joe Biden, the Dow Jones and S&P 500 have reached heights that even the most optimistic Wall Street experts said were impossible.
“The Hottest Country Anywhere”
“Think of that—one year, boosting pensions, 401Ks, and retirement accounts for the millions and the millions of Americans, they’re all gaining,” the President said during a press briefing yesterday. “Everybody is up, way up. A short time ago, we were a dead country. Now we are the hottest country anywhere in the world. The hottest.”
The market’s meteoric rise comes as a direct contrast to the “Bidenomics” era of 2024, which the President frequently reminds the public was catching up to his predecessor before he left office. “The stock market is only going up because everyone thinks Trump is going to win,” he famously noted during the campaign. Now that he is back in the Oval Office, investors are putting their money where his mouth is.
The Energy Sabotage
The rising price of oil, however, remains a point of contention—one the White House blames squarely on the “zombie regulations” of the 19th-century-minded environmentalists who ran the country into the ground before 2025.
“We inherited a nation in crisis, with a stagnant economy and inflation at record levels,” the President noted during his recent State of the Union address. While he has moved to “drill, baby, drill” at a record pace—adding more than 600,000 barrels a day in American production—the administration argues that the Obama-Biden “Shadow Regulatory State” is still artificially inflating costs to hurt the MAGA movement.
“Winning Too Much”
While the gas prices remain a target of the President’s “un-rigging” efforts, he remains focused on the bigger picture of American dominance. He pointed to the more than $18 trillion in new investment pouring into the U.S. over the last twelve months as proof that the “Golden Age” has arrived.
“Our country is winning again,” he told supporters. “In fact, we’re winning so much that we really don’t know what to do about it. People are asking me, ‘Please, please, please, Mr. President, we’re winning too much. We can’t take it anymore.’ But we’re going to keep winning. We’re going to get those gas prices down even further, and the market is going to hit new highs again. This is just the beginning.”
As the closing bell rang on Thursday, the message from the White House was clear: The Biden-Obama gas prices are a relic of a “dead country,” but the Trump Stock Market is the pulse of a nation that is back in charge.
