Fox News Guest Scolds Viewers Worried About Their Retirement Accounts: ‘You’re Not in the Game, President Donald Trump Is’

Private equity fund manager Grant Cardone scolded viewers “worried about your 401(k)” on Fox News on Monday, accusing them of underestimating President Donald Trump’s plan.

Reacting on Fox News’s The Ingraham Angle to concerns about a potential recession as a result of Trump’s recent tariffs, Cardone said:

Let’s keep this real. Donald Trump has Plan A, one plan, Make America Great Again. There is no other plan and the short-term traders or the pundits on TV that are watching Wall Street, look guys, this is beyond your pay plan. This man is a master in negotiating. This is a negotiations at global levels that we’ve never seen before. He’s transparent, he’s authentic, he know what he’s doing, and he will Make America Great Again.

So, you guys that are at home and you’re worried about your 401(k), your IRA, or you traders out there or bankers that are worried about your commissions, just step aside. This is not the time for Monday quarterbacking. You’re not in the game, President Donald Trump is. You’ve underestimated him over and over and you’re doing the same thing this time.

Fox News host Laura Ingraham asked, “It’s almost like if there is no recession by Summer, then aren’t all these doomsdayers going to look really stupid, Grant?”

“Well yes, absolutely they will, and he has predicted over and over what would happen here,” replied Cardone. “Look, he’s bringing China to the table. This is going to be great for America. There will be a contraction and the difference is we’ve been in contraction for a long period of time. Joe Biden just lied. The entire administration lied over and over about how good of shape the economy was in. Remember, we were hiring 40% of all the jobs, were coming from the government.”

He concluded, “They’re slicing and dicing jobs with the government today. They’re going to cut– they’re going to get his way on the tariffs. He’s gonna cut taxes in the next three to four weeks. America is going to go into a great prosperity. There might be a contraction temporarily, but it’s good times ahead for the American families.”

Earlier this month, Fox News’ The Five co-host Jeanine Pirro made similar comments about Americans concerned over the economy.

“You know what? I don’t really care about my 401(k) today,” said Pirro. “You know why? Not that I can afford it, not that it isn’t important, not that I’m not at a point in my life where I should be worried about my 401(k), because I am, but this is what I believe. I believe in this man.”
