Trump’s Tariffs Crash Markets, Internet Fights Back With Memes And Protests | World Today

Описание: Markets are tumbling, memes are booming, and protests are going global — all in reaction to US President Donald Trump's explosive tariff announcements and controversial policies. In this episode of World Today with Geeta Mohan, we take you through the chaotic ripple effect of Trump’s 2.0 trade war. After announcing sweeping tariffs on China and threatening more on Asia (minus China), Wall Street nosedived and rebounded within minutes, leaving global investors rattled. As retail investors across India, South Korea, Japan, and beyond suffer losses, Trump was spotted playing golf at his Jupiter resort.

Meanwhile, the internet had its own way of fighting back — with wit and sarcasm. The term “Orange Monday” trended as memes flooded social media mocking Trump’s role in triggering the financial spiral. But the resistance wasn’t just digital — the largest anti-Trump protest since his re-election rocked cities from Washington to L.A., mocking both Trump and Elon Musk with signs that were as hilarious as they were savage.

To top it all, even Pikachu joined the resistance — marching in Washington, Tel Aviv, and Istanbul. From viral memes to viral protests, this episode brings you the most bizarre, biting, and bold reactions to Trump's second-term turbulence.
