RUSH: The Dow Jones Industrial Average is down 524 at the moment.

It was up a little bit today, and there are people… I need to tell you. There are people wondering if this is the October surprise, because, you know, early voting is happening now. As the stock market goes down, the media loves to talk about, “The Trump economy may have topped out, and we may be headed back to our Obama reality,” or some such thing. So there are suspicions this is all being manufactured — in other words, leftists willing to take a financial hit in order to try to hurt Trump.

Don’t know about that, but we’ll see.
