Is it possible for the leftists to crash the stock market right before the election?
No trying to stir political debate. But it seems a really great (and obvious) scenario coming into the next election would be for the stock markets to be heavily tanked, thus removing one of Trump's last 'accomplishments' - record-high stocks and 401Ks.
How would this likely be achieved? Would it be as simple as a coordinated sell-off?
And (of course the $64K question) when would be the best time to implement this?

No. the stock-market is run by stock-brokers - not by the left, not by the president.

Soros, etc. Will try, they have billions to gamble, and certainly a Biden victory would gain them 100's of billions

Yesterday the Atlanta Fed released its newest GDP estimate. The estimate for Q2 is -35%. That's on top of the 5% drop from Q1; thus GDP shrank 40% this year so far. https://www.frbatlanta.org/-/media/documents/cqer/... Given that kind of historically huge GDP drop, it will be shocking if the stock markets DON'T reflect the bad news with a drop.

The only thing keeping the stock market positive right now is the Fed buying stock to pump it up. Eventually they will have to sell. I guess it depends on how much they care about Trump badmouthing them in the past as to when and how fast they dump the stock.

Considering Biden is leading in Texas, Florida, and Pennsylvania polls, there doesn't seem to be any need to.
