When the stock market rolls, It’s weaker than expected Jobs Report, last week Inflation is risingand President Donald Trump is stuck trying to explain that he is unable to fulfill his campaign as he holds the worse tariff threat as Damocles’ sword against the economy. promise It “ends inflation from day one and makes America affordable again.”
And, oh, it was pretty rideable.
On Thursday, Trump denounced the “globalists” of stock market sales.
And when there is doubt, Blaming the Jewshe did it again in an interview that aired on Friday.
On Monday, his staff member said,Animal spiritAccording to Politico Reporter. And if it doesn’t mean to you, that’s because it doesn’t mean to you.
He was asked if the recession was on the card, but Trump could not deny it.
“I hate predicting such things,” he said. I said. “What we do is so big, there’s a transition period. We’re bringing wealth back to America.” addition Later, he said, “It takes a little time, it takes a little time, but I think it should be great for us.”
And how long is it “a little time”?
“You really can’t see the stock market,” Trump said. I said. “If you look at China, you have a 100-year perspective. There’s a quarter. We go quarterly.”
It may be the biggest bait and switch in the history of American political campaigns, from “low prices on the first day” to “100 years of economic pain.”
Interestingly, this is the same Trump a few weeks ago at an investor meeting. I said“Everyone is calling it. I don’t want to say this. It’s too bragging, but anyway, the Trump effect says anyway. It’s you. You’re the effect. Since the election, the stock market has skyrocketed and small business optimism has skyrocketed.”
Democrats are pleased to call all this the “Trump Effect.”
On Sunday night, on Air Force 1, Trump was asked about the possibility of a recession again and his refusal to answer recent questions. he I responded“That’s all I know. We accept hundreds of billions of dollars of tariffs. We’re going to do our job, we have a factory, that’s great.”
Does anyone want to try to understand that? Certainly, the grocery store shelves are. Empty the eggbut we have so much money that we don’t know where to spend it! (That would be inflation in itself…)
Don’t worry, don’t try to understand it. It does nothing. But one thing is certain: Trump isn’t particularly concerned about the financial pains that Americans are experiencing at his hands. Check out This exchange One gag between that air force:
Q: What do you say to Americans who have seen their retirement accounts drop on a recent day and feel very nervous about these tariff conversations?
Trump: Ah, I think tariffs will be the biggest thing we’ve ever done as a country. It is going to enrich our country once again.
Trump can’t even pretend to show hints of empathy for those affected by his policies. He is a psychopath and pretends to have a glorious reward on the other side while he is willing to defeat the global economy.
Are you surprised? Trump never pretended not. he did say On the campaign trail, “I don’t care about you. I just want your vote.”
Trump’s superpower is that people believe his lies and don’t believe his truth.
