Pre-drawn conclusions much?

Yeah, right.
The doom-saying economists were wrong several months ago. Why should we expect them to be right now?
They expect to be right, despite the facts.
Because several months ago, tariff rates were merely introduced. Today, many will start to being implemented soon. It still can go either way, IMO. We should not accept that it will create hyperinflation, nor should we say it definitely will not increase the prices. My guess, it depends on the sectors.
It also depends on how fast supply lines can be replaced domestically or from favored countries. What’s appalling is how suddenly inflation, which was “transitory” and “minor” is now front and center, now that a leftist agenda is imperiled. When Reagan was for “free trade,” they were all protectionists. When Trump is now for “fair trade,” they’re all free traders.
The Dims are politicians. Whatever they (think) gonna work.
Sincere politicians adapt their policies to reality. The fakers try to adapt the public perception of reality to match their agenda. When the Germans invaded Poland, Neville Chambelaine went from being an appeaser to a war hawk. He was sincere in both instances, and wrong-headed in the former instance, and inept in the latter. So he was replaced.
Well inflation went up .2 percent…. Theyre vindicated!!! 😂
“It’s not a lie if you believe it”
Meanwhile the deficit is reduced and the dollar strengthens. Feds lower interest rates and by the end of 4 years the deficit may be eliminated.
The Democrat Party is a reactionary party that has no principles.
When will free traitors admit you were wrong?
Why do they need Principles when they have the teachers’ unions.

After Barbara Streisand divorced him, and he lost his leg playing Buzkashi, what else is there left for him to do?
That’s what I was thinking.
wow, the wall street journal used to be for Truth, care about us citizens and our country. now they are just another leftwing rag dumping all over us citizens and our President. not a shred of honor amongst them. nothing but disrespect. shun them all.
I could write for the WSJ. I already know their conclusions before they’re written. It’s the news paper to go to when you want imperialism and corporatism all in one.
Furniture and clothing. There’s enough furniture and clothing in antique shops, thrift stores and granny’s attic to last for decades.
Not too worried.
Kudlow was all over that. Said it’s BS.
