Considering the price of oil spiked *during* the speech tells me he didn’t succeed.

Do you think it was meant to make the market go down again or was that just a result of his incompetence at doing anything?

Drive it down to create some bargains for friends….. wait a bit, do something to drive it back up. Repeat…

His people pumped this speech up like it was an historic address to the nation. He was expecting to soothe oil and stock markets and assuage the public driving his poll numbers into the stratosphere ala Winston Churchill.
In true Trump form he accomplished all of the opposite of that. 10 minutes into his remarks oil was up nearly 10%. The stock markets are down.
Are the people around him so incapable of telling him his instincts are terrible, or are they too stupid to realize his approach would bomb?

Oil up 12% this morning. Stocks way down
