Biden-Harris Economic Aide Leaves for Campaign as Stocks Plunge, Recession Fear Takes Hold
Breitbart ^ | 08/05/2024 | Sean Moran

Posted on 08/05/2024 9:09:19 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Biden-Harris senior economic adviser Gene Sperling on Monday left the White House for the presidential campaign trail on the same day American stocks plunged and fears of a recession became readily apparent.

Sperling is leaving to become a senior economic adviser to Harris’s policy team on her presidential campaign. He served Presidents Bill Clinton and Barack Obama, and President Joe Biden tasked Sperling with administering the $1.9 trillion coronavirus pandemic passed in the early days of his presidency.

However, the senior economic adviser for Biden and Harris is leaving the White House at a time that major stock indexes fell sharply on Monday morning, and many have become worried that the economy is headed for a major downturn.

Now there’s an example of a conflated headline.

They’ll blame it on Trump.

With a straight face and in all seriousness.

It seems this clown Sperling has made a career collecting Federal Government paychecks.

We’ve been hearing recession for years. The stock market needed a correction. Hopefully it goes down some more. It needs to and then slowly go back up.

It sure is. If you read it several times it gets more incoherent with each reading.

Exactly. obama did nothing to stabilize the economy with his ‘redistribution’ antics and when things soured, he blamed GW Bush. How convenient to have a handy scapegoat and never be responsible for your consequences, even better with the Praetorian guard (MSM) covering for your mistakes.
Is that an Iceberg ahead? Who’s steerig this ship?

This USA of ours has been spending and spending. Billions of
dollars in cash to Ukraine plus billions in military equipment. Also, billions to Palestine and Israel. How much are we giving to NATO? How about the UN? Who does not get money from us except maybe Russia and North Korea. The millions of illegals here are living in free Apt’s, get free healthcare, add about $800 in free food, etc.

When many here grew up we would knock on our neighbors door and ask if we could mow lawns, or do anything. I used to get $2 to mow lawns with a push mower. I got $2-3 to shovel 3-4 feet of snow out of driveways. When has any kid asked you for work? I was 9-10 years old when I shoveled snow.

US heading towards a recession, armed conflict in the Mid East and threat of Taiwan invasion by Red China. Anyone who votes for Harris instead of Trump is an idiot and hoping for the end of living free in the United States of America.
