Donald Trump decided to start a trade war with the rest of the world on steel. The trouble is the nations he’s threatening reacted straight away.
It’s no different with the threats that he sends out to North Korea, he’s doing it to create maximum effect and of course because everyone does react, he’s getting what he wants. He wants people to be on the back foot. That way he can perhaps achieve a compromise and show the American People that he is actually achieving something.
However the The Dow Jones Industrial Average had initially fallen more than 570 points, with heavy losses for manufacturers like Caterpillar and Boeing. The index closed down 420 points and the S&P 500 and Nasdaq both dropped on the day as well.
He also decides to make these announcements to get the American People on his side, especially as he’s been losing some popularity lately.
This cartoon shows Donald Trump as Baby Trump and as Superman, the man of steel. He has just landed on Planet Earth and is showing his power and strength.
