'Heading to World War III!' Trump takes aim at Harris in apocalyptic Truth Social rant

Former President Donald Trump took to Truth Social Monday morning to paint an apocalyptic picture of the world.

"STOCK MARKETS ARE CRASHING, JOBS NUMBERS ARE TERRIBLE, WE ARE HEADING TO WORLD WAR lll, AND WE HAVE TWO OF THE MOST INCOMPETENT 'LEADERS' IN HISTORY," he wrote. "THIS IS NOT GOOD!!!"

The outpouring followed a stock market drop due to a weaker than expected, but still net-positive, jobs report in the United States — a signal that may push the Federal Reserve to begin lowering interest rates.

In particular, Federal Reserve chairman Jerome Powell is beginning to face criticism from economists over not acting more quickly to relieve interest rate pressure, even after inflation numbers finally began to calm down earlier this year.

It is unclear exactly what Trump means by "we are heading to World War III." It is also unclear that the market activity has anything to do with Vice President Kamala Harris, as Trump is implying.

Trump soon followed up with another post, quoting a billionaire financial services executive's comments about markets around the world and specifically blaming Harris for the current activity.

"'Japan down 12%, India down 6%. Germany way down also. U.S. really bad. This is a preview of the world markets without Donald J. Trump in the White House. None of this happens if Trump is in. Kamala and the markets don’t go together. She’ll destroy the markets. She’s in power now and look at what is happening. One week of the fake media saying better polls and you get a market crash.' The Legendary Howard Lutnick!" Trump wrote.
