Hey, it's Will Salatin from The Bullwork.

So the midterm elections are coming up, and there's one person who's working really,

really hard to make sure that Donald Trump and the Republicans lose.

And that person is Donald Trump.

Seriously, for weeks, this guy has been publicly admitting that he deliberately started the Iran war, knowing he says he knew that it would screw the economy.

In fact, I'm going to show you the video of Trump telling voters how little he cares about their financial situation.

It's like he's making ads for the Democratic Party.

So here's the story Trump has been telling about how he started the war.

I called in Scott Bassett and all of my people, mostly my financial people.

And I said, all right, folks, congratulations.

We just hit the highest price in the history of the stock market.

Oil prices were very low.

They were 60 and 70.

They were buying oil for $2 and even less.

Remember, just a couple of months ago, you were at $2 and $185 in Iowa.

It was $185 a gallon.

I said, congratulations.

Now I'm going to upset the apple cart for you because we have to take a little journey down to a beautiful country known as Iran.

So that was the situation.

He says oil was under $70 a barrel and gas was under $2 a gallon.

And he decided, he says, to upset the apple cart.

So what happened?
