CNN host Fareed Zakaria hijacked former President Donald Trump’s slogan “Make America Great Again” and slapped it on President Joe Biden’s gargantuan federal spending.
Zakaria fawned in a new op-ed headlined, “How Biden’s New Deal can really make America great again.” He went on to pretend that “Trump claimed he wanted to ‘Make America Great Again,’ President Biden is attempting to actually do it.” Zakaria must have missed economist and The Lindsey Group CEO Lawrence Lindsey’s October 2020 op-ed headlined, “The Trump Boom Is Real.” But according to Zakaria, “Biden’s infrastructure plan is the first major fiscal program in five decades that would focus once again on investment.” Zakaria praised how Biden’s multi-trillion infrastructure proposal — which follows his irresponsible $1.9 trillion stimulus — “harks back to the New Deal.”
He didn’t mention how bad FDR’s New Deal really was. Perhaps the CNN host should read Harold L. Cole and Lee. E. Ohanian’s 2009 analysis: “How Government Prolonged the Depression.”

The Incredible Mr. Limpet!
Time magazine ran Obama’s new deal.....
It didn’t work.
The economy never recovered from the Democratic party engineered destruction of 2008. (Yes I say they did it to win the White House in 2008)
Now Biden wants a ‘new deal’....
The economy will never recover from the Democratic party engineered destruction of 2020. (Yes I say they did it to win the White House in 2020)
The Federal Reserve should just say no, while they still have a the world wide currency. The Democrats will destroy them too.
Well, it’s going to make Democrat leaders pretty wealthy.
Biden’s New Deal is the Venezuelan New Deal on steroids. Period.
Trump’s idea was to actually create value which in turn creates wealth.
Xiden’s plan captures value which leads to deterioration of value.
Plan accordingly.
That’s odd. For years we heard from libs that America was never that great. Now Biden is going to make it great again. But the left believes it was never great. Please make it stop. These people make absolutely no sense.
CNN — COMEDY NEWS NETWORK. The Babylon Bee is more newsworthy than CNN..
Agreed—Freepers need to hunker down for a future depression.
Pay all debt as soon as possible.
Buy non-perishables as much as possible—supply lines may be disrupted, particularly if inflation hits hard and the Democrats respond with price controls.
Spend _way_ below your means—that means no fancy vacations, that means no luxury items.
You can thank me later.
Inflation is here!! A young relative had to cancel building their new home just as the builder was available and framing was to commence. The costs of lumber had more than doubled. They had to cancel the project as it became unaffordable
