Summary

Trump hit the economy with sky-high tariffs, watched the market tank... then suddenly hit pause for 90 days. Coincidence? Strategic retreat? Or something that smells suspiciously like market manipulation? With the economy whiplashing and investors scrambling, we’re asking the real questions—and we’ve got Mr. Wonderful himself, Kevin O’Leary, joining us to break it all down. What does this mean for the markets, businesses, and your wallet? And can anyone keep up with this administration’s trade mood swings? Join us live, Lemon Nation. It’s a mess—but at least it’s entertaining. This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp. Give online therapy a try at betterhelp.com/donlemon and get on your way to being your best self.
