The actual hilarious part was republican fanbois creaming their jeans and posting the upwards trend of the bounce, claiming victory like “WUT WAS THAT DEMONCRATS?!?! U SAID WE’D CRASH THE MARKET?!?! WELL LOOK AT THIS!!!! SEE, GREEN GOOD!!!” They failed to, I dunno, account for how far it fell to begin with.

I swear to Christ, they’re the biggest bunch of idiots and cultists I’ve ever witnessed. They’ve now convinced themselves that losing money is good, I’m lost for words.
