How the US economy went from booming to a recession scare in only 20 days

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

I have absolutely no clue what you're talking about.

Making chit up, exactly like I thought.

And?
We have always had our inferior associate countries do the less desirable work.

And?
You don't even realize how stupid you sound...
And BTW, China has unveiled a new quantum supercomputer that is 1 million times faster than Google's supercomputer.
Another "less desirable work" for inferior countries.

In six short weeks, trump has taken an economy that was the best post-pandemic economy in the world and now has economist talking about a recession and a negative GDP. It seems that everything that trump touches goes up in smoke. He has started a trade war, even with our most reliable allies while rekindling his love affair with the murderer name Putin, He and musk are decimating the US government with insane employee cuts while the MAGA congress allows him to take their constitutionally authorized powers and trampled them under his feet. This is the worst start of any administration in recent memory.

Cutting Government spending means you're going to have a drop in GDP, Jim. That doesn't mean it wasn't the right thing to do. The cuts to Federal workers isn't "insane". What was insane was thinking we could keep on growing Government without the country going into bankruptcy. Growth in the Private Sector will make up for losses in the Public Sector. What will you whine about at that point?

When Trump was president there isn't anything he bragged about more than the stock market.



But Trump claimed credit for the stock market under Biden. He said the stock market is up because they project Trump was going to win. So Trump admits the stock market was up during Biden, but it was because of him.

Then Trump said the stock market would crash if he didn't win.

Business people right now are like deer in headlights. They don't know what to do because of Trump.

Now they are saying Biden left Trump a lousy economy. LOL.

A god awful mess is what Fox News said. Biden handed Trump a "god awful mess". LOL. Go to 5 minutes in. Seth puts it perfectly.

What's amusing is that you STILL think we should be listening to what liberal late night talk show hosts think about anything!

I am genuinely curious, does the DNC mail your checks or are they deposited into your account directly? Or do you have to go pick them up somewhere...?

Imagine if Kamala won and things were going this badly for the 5 richest men in the world. Egg prices and Tesler sales going this badly. Imagine.

Trump last year promised he would “immediately begin a brand-new Trump economic boom” if he won the election.

“It’ll be a boom!” he vowed. “We’re gonna turn this country around so fast.”

You got sold sucker.

Instead, it’s been a bust as the market plunged from record highs in former President Joe Biden’s final weeks, to weeks of losses since Trump announced tariffs and other trade war measures.

Stocks tanked yet again on Thursday, and the market reached “correction” territory, which is when major indexes drop by 10%.
Ironically, that’s just what Trump said would happen... if he lost.
He said it in 2020, predicting that stocks “will go to hell” if Biden or Kamala won.

The Dow reached a then-all-time-high of 31,188 on Biden’s inauguration ― and continued to rise, peaking above 45,000 in December 2024.

Trump issued similar warnings last year, with the CNN supercut showing him predicting a “Kamala economic crash” if then-Vice President Kamala Harris won the election.

What are your news sources telling you ask Wallstreet, Elon, Europe, 54% of us are panicking?

What's funny is you still think Trump knows what he's doing. My god 55% of American voters are STUPID! Is it I told you so time? Or is there still time to correct the ship? The stock market's plunging.

Don't make me post all of Trump's tweets taking credit for a good stock market. Gotta take the good and the bad especially when you deserve it right? RIGHT? Dumb fuck.

I could care less about the stock market. Good fiscal policy is good fiscal policy. What Trump is doing NEEDS to be done and I think the American people know that! Get your digs in now, Sealy because I think we both know that down the road what Trump is doing is going to be good for the country. God knows we couldn't go on doing what we were doing before. It was NEVER sustainable!

I don't agree with your general statement, so provide some evidence.

Nobody wants to drive the car that the NAZI built. The get angry stares, fingers, and threats. I wonder how many more NAZI salutes musk and Bannon are going to make before the end of the year?

Who wants to drive your car jimbowhiner not me?
Nazis are leftists.

Trump is the worst president in U.S history.

Incompetent, lazy, and stupid, Trump is unfit to be president.
