During a tumultuous week for the stock market, CBS News correspondent Jennifer Jacobs questioned President Trump about the speculation that he was intentionally crashing the markets after announcing new tariffs. Following the announcement, the stock market experienced dramatic declines, with a total drop of nearly 4000 points. While Trump denied any intent to cause market instability, he emphasized his goal of addressing trade deficits with China and the EU, citing significant investments coming into the U.S. as a result of his policies.
