Analysis: The stock market plunge shows Trump's disruption can't be contained

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

46% : Or will Trump react with his characteristic volatility to days of selloffs on Wall Street by moderating his policies?
43% : But Trump, by trying to change so much, is still playing with fire.
34% : Trump has not had time to fully enact his economic policies yet - or to demonstrate his claims that they will make Americans far wealthier and send the economy soaring.
33% : Trump is trying to shatter everything that everyone thought they knew about US foreign aid, trade and economic policy.
28% : Last week, however, Trump didn't even have a 100-hour perspective - freezing tariffs on Mexico and Canada a day after they'd been imposed, following a poor reaction from the markets and blowback among Republican lawmakers.
27% : "I hate to predict things like that," he said, and compounded the damage later on Air Force One by saying, "Who knows?" It was less what Trump said but how a president known for unshakeable certainty said it.
21% : What will Trump do next? Growing concerns about the economy and the impact of Trump's shock-and-awe policies pose several questions about his next moves.
16% : But in a Fox News interview on Sunday, Trump lacked his usual bombast when asked whether the strong economy he inherited from former President Joe Biden would tip into recession this year.
10% : President Donald Trump speaks from the Oval Office of the White House in Washington, DC, on March 7. Donald Trump never told voters there might be a recession on the road to his new "golden age.
