CNN’s Latest Hot Take on the Economy Is So Dumb, Your Brain Might File for Bankruptcy
NewsBusters ^ | 9/23/2025 | Joseph Vazquez

The level of brain-dead sludge disguised as economic news just plastered on the CNN.com website just to slam the so-called Trump “threat” is enough to subtract ten points from your intelligence quotient.

CNN senior reporter Matt Egan — who’s made a name for himself for pushing some of the dumbest economic hot takes circulated by the network — is apparently trying to one-up himself. “The US economy has a new problem: Democracy is under siege,” cried Egan in a September 22 headline.

Egan listed off a number of actions by President Donald Trump, to effectively compare him to a third-world dictator: “These events all took place this year, and not in a third-world country, but in the world’s preeminent democracy under President Donald Trump.”

Remember that this is the same guy who simped for Bidenomics so much that he had the audacity to claim in 2023 — still in the thick of America’s rampant inflation crisis — that Americans “have never been wealthier” than under President Joe Biden.

I had this misfortune of watching a few minutes of CNN yesterday.

Topic was the news conference regarding vaccine and autism.
Various members of their panel repeatedly mentioned Trump telling people to “drink bleach” or “inject themselves with bleach “ during the unrelentingly critical comments.

If people watching this garbage actually believe what they’re hearing, it’s no wonder so many people are as screwed up as Tyler Robinson.

Democracy in America is in the marketplace, not in government. Democracy is in America. We vote with our feet and pocketbook where to live, where to shop, where to worship, what to buy, what to sell.
