Sarah Huckabee Sanders Mocks New York Times Crank Paul Krugman For ‘Worst Prediction of the Year’
GP ^ | December 29,2017 | by Cristina Laila

Posted on 12/29/2017 6:17:29 PM PST by Hojczyk

In Krugman’s NYT article, he arrogantly states:

It really does now look like President Donald J. Trump, and markets are plunging. When might we expect them to recover?

Frankly, I find it hard to care much, even though this is my specialty. The disaster for America and the world has so many aspects that the economic ramifications are way down my list of things to fear.

Still, I guess people want an answer: If the question is when markets will recover, a first-pass answer is never.

Under any circumstances, putting an irresponsible, ignorant man who takes his advice from all the wrong people in charge of the nation with the world’s most important economy would be very bad news. What makes it especially bad right now, however, is the fundamentally fragile state much of the world is still in, eight years after the great financial crisis.

Hey Krugman, that “irresponsible, ignorant man” you speak of has broken one economic record after another this year.

Krugman wouldn’t know success unless it climbed up his ass and took up residence.

Krugman exhibits a typical collectivist mindset found among leftists.

“Krugmann is a lefty. But Ron Paul says buckle your seat belts. http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/ron-paul-trump-may-be-vulnerable-to-2020-gop-primary-challenge/article/2644395";

Rand Paul “May” be vulnerable when he runs for reelection. The minute, “may”, “possible”, “could” is entered into the dialogue, it is fake news.

Dr. Krugman’s prediction just shows the value of a Nobel Prize in economics.

Krugman is a “nasty woman”. (Yes; I know he’s a guy but if he’s going act like a wailing (leftist) girl I’m going to call him one)

Krugman is the irresponsible, ignorant man.

And yet idiots still pay him to pontificate.

It’s like paying Algore to explain Global Warming.

A little tough to label it fake news since it’s a direct quote and attributable.
