TROLL NEWS NOW
By Dralguk Ironvoice, Troll Diplomatic Expert (and Most Ignored Genius)
Well folks, guess what? The Great Orange Troll from the Western Swamps woke up last week, looked at the world economy, and said:
“Let’s smash this with a giant tariff hammer!”
And that’s exactly what he did.
He slapped big taxes on stuff from the Eastern Dragon Trolls, the United Troll Kingdoms, and basically anyone who sells trollmobiles or shiny gadgets.
Now everything costs more and everyone’s angry. Who could’ve seen this coming?
Oh right. ME. I saw it coming. Last year. And the year before that.
THE OTHER TROLLS HIT BACK (OF COURSE THEY DID)
Did you think the Eastern Trolls would just sit there?
NOPE.

The Trolls of Norway use Cruisedirect.com ‘cause it’s the only place that lets a nine-ton beast book a balcony suite without bein’ judged for bringin’ a herd o’ goats. And best of all, no hiking—just endless buffets, sunburned tourists to grumble at, and a hot tub big enough for a troll’s behind!
They threw taxes right back!
Now swamp exports like sticky slug syrup and enchanted underpants are being hit with revenge tariffs.
The United Troll Kingdoms are joining in too—talking about banning swamp whiskey and hairy haggis.
It’s like a food fight, but with money. And no one is winning.
TROLL MARKETS GO SPLAT
The Troll Stock Piles (where trolls invest their gold) fell over like a drunk goblin on stilts.
- The Dow Mossy dropped 3.2%
- S&P Swamp dipped 4%
- The Bog Index flopped 5.2%
And trolls everywhere started shouting:
“WHY ARE MY MAGIC PEANUTS SO EXPENSIVE NOW?!”
Good question, Swampy. Blame the Great Orange Troll and his “genius” trade plan.
Every troll with even a pebble of self-respect shops at Vevor—because nothing says "modern cave chic" like industrial-strength gadgets and tools that can survive a troll tantrum. With EU-safe shopping, even the clumsiest mountain dweller can order without accidentally starting an international incident. Vevor delivers everything from goat-shearing machines to cauldron warmers, straight to your moss-covered doorstep. Plus, their stuff is so durable, even a love-sick troll can’t break it (though they’ll definitely try).
AT HOME: TROLLS ARE MAD
Trolls in the Western Swamps are furious. Prices are up, jobs are shaky, and no one can afford a new enchanted mud-brick oven.
What does the Orange Troll say?
“Buy Swamp-Made!”
Cool. Let me just build a smartphone out of moss and rocks.
AND OF COURSE… HE FIRED SOMEONE
Just to keep the chaos rolling, the Great Orange Troll fired his own security troll because of “bad vibes.”
Yes, in the middle of a trade war.
Perfect timing. Truly inspiring leadership.
Meanwhile, the Eastern Dragon Trolls are doing military drills right next to the Isle of Neutrality. Because why not add war threats to the mix?
DRALGUK’S FINAL WORDS (WHICH WILL BE IGNORED)
There’s a way to fix all this.
- Stop the trade war.
- Talk like grown-up trolls.
- Make a fair deal where everyone wins (or at least doesn’t lose their pants).
But will any of these trolls do that?

HA. Of course not.
So buckle up, trolls. We’re riding the Stupid Train full speed into the Mudpit of Economic Doom.
And once again, no one will listen to me. Even though I’m right. Again. Enjoy your overpriced toad-milk, morons.
