As the November elections approach in the midst of a pandemic President Trump has done very little to contain in the United States, his children continue to pitch him online as a big success deserving of a second term.

On Wednesday, September 2, Eric Trump was given an earful on social media after saying the rising DOW Jones means the economy is "roaring back to life."


Twitter was quick to inform Eric that the stock market is not the whole economy.



As the old saying goes, "Wall Street is not Main Street."



Unemployment has skyrocketed many are struggling to pay their rent, and small businesses continue to suffer due to the virus President Trump has failed to control.



The average American doesn't have a large investment in the stock market.


Meanwhile, many others pointed out that the stock market has been able to maintain stability largely because the Fed is pouring money into it.



Perhaps Eric Trump learned something valuable about the economy today...though most people doubted it.

Elon Musk Schooled After Comparing Obama-Era Democrats To Far-Right German Party

Billionaire Elon Musk was criritized after he attempted to equate the far-right Alternative for Deutschland (AfD) party to Democrats at the beginning of Barack Obama's presidency, and was swiftly fact-checked—even by X's own AI chatbot.

The party presented itself as an economic liberal, soft Euroskeptic and conservative movement upon its establishment in 2013 but has since moved further to the right, expanding its policies under successive leaderships to include opposition to immigration, Islam, and the EU.
