Is Donald Trump inheriting the best economy in history?

Marketwatch ^ | Jan 11, 2025 | Chris Matthews

[where's_the_Outrage?]

Leg tingle says things are great, and starts to mention the lie behind the "best economy ever". Gas prices way up from 4 years ago, mortgage rates up, but fails to mention egg prices thru the roof, housing prices up about 25%, etc.

However, we can expect a large jump in unemployment as Trumps fires the swamp.

He’s still alive?

[Dave911]

Matthews is a pathetic moron.

[Libloather]

My grocery and gas bills say otherwise.

[JBW1949]

Chris Matthews....*ROFLMAO*

He’s about as intelligent as a post hole....

[donozark]

Is his leg still tingling?

[FlipWilson]

Yes, and clearly the American people just loved the crap out of Theo economy. Can someone please put the spitter back on his box.

[Strict9]

This is one of the worst economies I’ve seen in my life. Other than off-world mining and drilling for oil everywhere on earth I don’t see how Trump can magical our way out of this. Crypto meme coins ain’t gonna do it. The Titanic is going down quick. Somebody blow up a balloon.

[The_Media_never_lie]

Debt is way up. Chris is no economist. Chris is a propagandist.

[combat_boots]

The guy needs a sex toy.

[piasa]

Are these people stoned out of their minds?

[escapefromboston]

Yes the economy is great , it’s why Kamala is getting sworn in today

[Qwapisking]

not seeing it. I must not be smart enough, or so I’m told.

[rlmorel]

Wow.

Delusional. Idiotic. Ideologic.

Or any combination of those, but likely...all of them at once.

[mewzilla]

Moody’s is Deep State.

Not that we really needed the reminder, Mr. Zandi.

[AAABEST]

Who writes this trash. Nobody thinks the economy doesn’t suck.

Especially broke young people who can’t buy houses or cars. Or old people who can’t buy eggs or meds.

Market Watch has gone full-blown clownass.

[gundog]

Yes the economy is great , it’s why Kamala is getting sworn in today

She didn’t send a thrill up Chrissy’s leg.

[sphinx]

It’s a great economy if your business is fencing stolen goods in California or if your business rests on unskilled labor for which you can pay subminimum wages off the books.

[caseinpoint]

The economy may be heating up but I suspect that is similar to those politically incorrect cars the Obama Administration forced to be destroyed and it will seize shortly.

[wbarmy]

I don’t see how Trump can magical our way out of this.

It's actually very easy. The price of everyhting, and I mean everything, depends on the price of fuel; diesel, gas, propane, etc. Once the price starts dropping, the price of everyhting begins dropping.

Additionally, as we remove tens of thousands of people here illegally, who have been fillung up rental properties all around the country, those prices will be forced down. DC will be hurt the most, because when these people readlusted their mortgages to get lower rates, they artificially put themselves into a deep hole.
