Desi Lydic Makes 1 Thrilling Example Out Of Trump’s Economy

Lydic humorously commented on the Dow Jones graphic, stating, “I’m not an economist but it’s probably a bad sign when the chart itself looks like it jumped off the roof.” She then added, “Look at that drop! Six Flags is going to make a roller coaster of that.”

Continuing with her roller coaster comparison, Lydic acted out a mock conversation between amusement park guests, saying, “‘Mom, I want to ride the Dow Jones!’ ‘We can’t afford it!’”

She later pointed out the impact of Trump’s tariffs on his relationships, highlighting Elon Musk’s criticism of Trump’s top trade adviser, Peter Navarro. Musk called Navarro “dumber than a sack of bricks” after Navarro referred to him as a “car assembler” on CNBC.

“Ooh, I have to pick between Elon Musk and Peter Navarro? This is like the trolley problem if the problem was that you only have one trolley,” Lydic jokingly remarked.
