Paul Krugman Babbles that Trump Wants Americans to ‘Die for the Dow’
NewsBusters ^ | 5/21/2020 | Joseph Vazquez

New York Times economist Paul Krugman continues to unleash liberal bile just to take disgusting shots at President Donald Trump, Republicans and ordinary Americans for wanting to reopen the economy. Krugman penned an absurd May 14 op-ed headlined, “Covid-19 Reality Has a Liberal Bias.” In that article, Krugman encouraged readers to speculate about the potential “blowback — especially, by the way, among senior citizens — if an attempt to restart the economy leads to a new wave of infections.” He used that speculation about senior citizens to question: “[W]hy are Trump and company going down this route?” He then answered his own question with a disgusting allegation: “One answer is that thousands of Americans may be about to die for the Dow.”

I think Cuomo is trying to kill in order to reduce the Dow.

Krugman is generally consistently wrong about anything economic in nature. I’d say anyone with a +120 IQ and two economic courses under their belt could out match him in an analysis of the economy. Krugman is a joke.

Just a wild guess here, but I’m betting Krugman is currently getting a paycheck, and has been all through the shutdown.

Wasn’t he the hack who said after the stock market took off when Trump was elected that it was only temporary and it would crash and likely never recover?

Krugman is a first class dick who can safely be ignored.

But watch the sleight of hand:

“if an attempt to restart the economy leads to a new wave of infections”

So what are the things people are complaining about being shut down?

graduations
church services
kids sports
swimming at the beach

That’s not “the economy”.

That’s “the country”

So don’t fall into the planted trap of speaking about “restarting the economy”. It’s “restarting the country”.
