Republican narrative

The return of Trump to the White House is going to propel the US into a new golden age, and this surge in stocks is just the beginning. Trump's a vocal proponent of cryptocurrency and the US will reliably be a leader in that realm under his presidency. America is looking forward to a safe, prosperous future.
