WATCH: CNN Guest Ducks Under Desk to Escape Stock Market Ticker

DUCK AND COVER

MAGA fan Scott Jennings couldn’t avoid the stock market after he defended President Donald Trump’s tariffs.

CNN’s resident MAGA fan Scott Jennings had to duck under a desk to avoid a crashing stock market ticker after he defended President Donald Trump’s disastrous tariffs. “I think the tariffs are just one part of his economic plan,” Jennings said. “If it’s right, it will be the ballsiest thing that ever happened, and if it’s wrong, the consequences will fall on one shoulder.” Try as he might, Jennings couldn’t deny that early returns were not looking good for Trump when the network projected a stock market ticker showing the rapidly crashing economy on his chest. “I feel like you did this on purpose,” he said as the ticker followed him around the room. “Can we just shove it to the other side of the screen?” he said before hiding under a desk as other guests laughed.
