It must have taken a hefty amount of acid dropping for the detached journos at The New York Times to psych themselves into believing the abject falsehood that President Joe Biden’s economy was just a booming spectacle of awesome.
“Trump’s Policies Have Shaken a Once-Solid Economic Outlook,” gaslighted economic reporters Ben Casselman and Colby Smith.
It didn’t take but one paragraph for the authors to go into a complete pro-Bidenomics slobbering session replete with rehashed talking points: “President Trump inherited an economy that was, by most conventional measures, firing on all cylinders.” The authors continued: “Wages, consumer spending and corporate profits were rising. Unemployment was low. The inflation rate, though higher than normal, was falling.”
Spot the deception yet?

They are all in on creating a false reality about the economy so that when we go through the necessary hard times of readjusting the stock market and pulling back the runaway inflation they can blame Trump and run on it politically.
This is why Trump has to keep pushing hard and fast so the recovery will be notice din time for the 2026 elections, this is paralleling Reagan’s reelection economically.
I was on another thread, and we have a lot of people on this very forum who don’t realize that fixing this problem of debt is going to be painful:
We are $37 trillion dollars in deb.
We are paying $600 billion in servicing that debt annually now.
We are adding $1 Trillion in debt every 100 days now.
All of this is completely unsupportable.
This is a rational view, unless you are gullible or a Leftist. In what universe do we escape from this horrible headlong rush towards official insolvency without pain?
Yet that is what people want. Don’t do anything for a few more years. Do it gradually. Don’t hurt people.
If we don’t fix this, when things DO go off that cliff (and they WILL if we do not take steps) it is going to hurt like hell when we hit the bottom.
They cannot fade away fast enough.
Gradually...and then all at once.
You would think that some of the R party fund raising ploys are proffered by HIGH persons or just stupid.
Rather that espousing the wonderful aspects of DJT’s first weeks back in office most all text and e-mail do the chicken little looking for money.
Somebody tell these fools that things are going our way finally and to push this past the fake news that everyone can hear.
We had negative growth last qtr, didn’t we?
Never give up the con.
Wouldn’t matter either way, if economy goes south it’s Trump’s fault(if it went south under camel toe they would say everything is fine look at the stick market or price of eggs…), if economy does well credit to xiden
