Trump Issues Executive Order For Dow Jones To Work Like Golf Scores

WASHINGTON, D.C. — As the markets opened today, the Dow Jones Industrial average opened with another plummet of over 1,000 points. This has seen the largest drop in the markets since the start of the great recession. Fears and uncertainty about a possible widespread pandemic outbreak of the novel coronavirus have spurred a sharp sell-off, wiping out trillions of dollars in gains. On the Hill, there’s one man in particular who is quite concerned about the markets plummeting, and he believes he has the power to do something about it.

President Donald Trump skulked out onto the White House lawn this morning and announced that he had just signed an executive order specifically to address the tumbling market indices.
