The stock market continues to fluctuate wildly amid Donald Trump’s tariffs, and while most people — including multiple Trump donors — have lost a lot of money because of it, some of the president’s loyalists are still defending the move. That made Seth Meyers roll his eyes pretty hard on Monday night.
During his “A Closer Look” segment, the NBC host noted that many “Wall Street realists” are suggesting a stoppage of the tariffs after the massive money loss, and projected future damage to the economy, including huge price hikes on just about everything.
“But on the other hand, you got MAGA propagandists and true believers who have settled on a new message: maybe money isn’t so important after all!” Meyers said mockingly.
