There is one thing I can predict: if Trump's policies tank our economy. He will blame everyone but himself.
It's not an if it's a when.
No, it's not a certainty that Trump's policies will cause a recession. What if we get hit by a giant meteor before then, wiping out humanity before the tariffs have a chance to do any damage? Or if God finally decides He has had enough and exercises His Ultimate Recall Vote on Trump and his presidency tomorrow?
Damn Biden comet
Giant Meteor 2028: Just End It Already
Biden, hunters laptop, DEI, Hilary, assorted transgender concerns.
Didn’t miss any other causes of the upcoming recession?
Edit: tan suits.
All pitched by the right as to why our country is off-course.
Don't forget porn, video games, and not injecting bleach.
It’s Obama’s fault. He shouldn’t have had that Dijon mustard
That's correlation not causation. We all know the root cause was the tan suit.
There's an alternate universe where Obama has never owned a tan suit, Harambe is still alive, and President AOC is in office after President Sanders' retirement....
That's the universe where the Brooks Brothers Riot didn't succeed and Al Gore became president.
Recessions are created to sell items to rich people with a discount
The guy that predicts he's going to make everything better all the time, every day. "I don't like to predict things"
This fucking clown.
Well, he ended the war in Ukraine in 24 hours, didn't he?
checks notes
Uhhhhh.......no.
To paraphrase the Narcissist's Prayer, he's currently moving from "That won't happen" to "And if it does, it won't be that bad" and on to "And if it is, that's not a big deal."
So expect "And if it is, that's not my fault" in the not terribly distant future.
and if it did happen, you deserved it is their go-to.
If it crashes, I'm sure it will be Biden's fault. Also: Kamala's.
Also, I'm sure Kamala would have been just as bad because something something neocon genocide....
In any case, I think the corporate media would be doing the very least if they called it the Trump Depression/Recession.
From:“THIS IS THE TRUMP STOCK MARKET,” Trump wrote in an all-caps Truth Social post, “BECAUSE MY POLLS AGAINST BIDEN ARE SO GOOD THAT INVESTORS ARE PROJECTING THAT I WILL WIN, AND THAT WILL DRIVE THE MARKET UP.”
and.
TRUMP CASH vs. KAMALA CRASH!
To: "I DON'T LOOK AT THE MARKET
It’s like if you cut someone off in traffic, forcing them to collide with a large truck. Trump’s the sort of person who won’t stop to help, but will drive off pretending he had nothing to do with it, only to proudly point out “Hey! I was there!” When it makes the evening news.
Dudes gonna bankrupt America just like his casinos
“He puts the ‘if’ in tariffs,” Harry Shearer, Le Show
The US is going into a recession.
The really keen among you probably saw this coming last summer due to the slowing job growth numbers as being inevitable regardless of how the election turned out but this fucker is absolutely making it much more painful than it needed to be.
The US is definitely going to have a recession, I just hope it's not going to be s full on depression.
Please try to become as self sufficient as possible. I already have laying hens and a salsa garden, I'm going to try for dry beans this year.
He's playing the market. Tank and buy low, then you let the next admin fix it. Plus they can still blame Dems for tanking it.
Period of transition, huh? Like 4 year period? Then we elect a Democrat that fixes the economy and Trump goes, "That's my economy!"
The cycle continues...
I've never actually seen Trump think proactively. Perhaps it's my bias, or perhaps I don't consider him thinking of his own future as proactive thinking...
I hate to predict things
That's a huge part of your fucking job! Anticipating the consequences of your decisions.
Experts could have easily predicted that for him.
There is no 200 IQ 4D chess plan. He just wings it as he goes. He says and does whatever "feels good" to him at the moment with zero regards to consequences, consistency or truth. He doesn't consult experts, he doesn't study anything because he thinks he knows everything about everything already. He is simply lucky when things go his way and is really good at shifting blame when they don't.
