You're watching it play-out in front of you.
Spot on.I suspect Trump now sees glimpses of the future, and knows he can't get away with disputing it. So, he's now switched to getting ahead of it - shaping the narrative.
Trump Downplays Stock Market Drop, Won’t Deny There Could Be Recession This Year
“I hate to predict things like that,” Trump said when asked if there would be a recession this year.www.forbes.com
Bullshit.. U guys were praying, hoping for a recession under Biden.. So you could blame him..Presidential power does not in itself cause a recession. You're giving way too much power to a president you strongly dislike.
Nice twist of my words and his political campaign promises.
You're fear mongering.
Trump has pulled back on tariffs at least for another month. Between now and then, we should enjoy each day.
presidential power can in fact cause a recession. The economy is held up by consumer spending, and consumers who aren't confident dont spend as much, and chaos and trump's obvious economic ineptitude are wreaking havoc on confidence..not to mention all the layoffs and suspending spending.Presidential power does not in itself cause a recession.

Yup. This pain talk is maybe 3 days old at this point.No way did Trump promise pain, until his efforts started backfiring.
The editorial board rips Trump pretty much on a daily basis. Tariffs are not what conservatives want.
Spot on.
He knows by shaping the narrative now, his cult will repeat his narrative if economy sputters

Another one of these? Reporter asks a question, Trump doesn't commit one way or the other, and it's 'Trump won't deny there could be a recession.'. That's not a story.--Trump Downplays Stock Market Drop, Won’t Deny There Could Be Recession This Year

This morning on Fox News - the President did not rule-out the possibility of a Recession, and claims he does not pay attention to the Stock Market.
He predicts there will be a "Period of Transition".
I would respond,
"We've noticed!"

No! In normal times a president would be held more accountable by congress and his cabinet, and his mania/ego driven excesses kept under control. But Trump has managed to give himself dictatorial style powers while surrounded by carefully selected gutless sycophants, and the GOP congress have abdicated their responsibility to keep the country safe from Trumps craziness because they are too gutless to do anything to protect America.Presidential power does not in itself cause a recession.

If we allowed all of trumps dreams to come true you would be in a bread line. Which technically I'm not against you guys being there but(Forbes) Trump Won’t Deny There Could Be A Recession—Warns Of ‘Period Of Transition’ In Economy
Seriously now - did the collectivists here not anticipate some interim effects of the administration's efforts at reigning in our out-of-control spending?
Have collectivists here never had to get themselves out of debt???
See this is what needs to be shown to maga and when they deflect you call them ****ing idiots and move onHe tweeted about the markets dozens and dozens of times during his first term.
Well, we're seeing "globalists"...or should I say (((globalists))).What the **** are you talking about? "Collectivists"?
Is that the new Hannity buzzword?
But only because the cult leader wants them.Nor are they what Liberals want.
They are what MAGA wants!
Yeah, leave it to Trixie to downplay presidential decisions on the economy. For 4 fricking years she complained about Biden's economy. That's just the way all these MAGA here roll. Just a huge pile of partisan hacks, every single one of them.presidential power can in fact cause a recession. The economy is held up by consumer spending, and consumers who aren't confident dont spend as much, and chaos and trump's obvious economic ineptitude are wreaking havoc on confidence..not to mention all the layoffs and suspending spending.
sorry if reality intrudes on your right wing bubble.
You bet they will! And there will be a massive MAGAT epiphany over the summer as th reality of job losses, inflation, and much higher prices along with business failures becomes a reality. The fact of the matter is that in general MAGATS are less well educated and have lower incomes than normal people and will therefore disproportionately feel the effects of any recession. I am hoping that the tariffs stick so that the repulsicans take it on the chin in 2026. I can see the campaign ads now-black and white ads with the felon promising to lower the cost of groceries for ordinary Americans with the next scene showing graphs of skyrocketing inflation and prices.They say that now. A different tune come Mother's Day. Remember, these are people that are cult members. Separating will take time. Little things like foreclosures might have an impact.
MAGA: "His Majesty paid attention to the market then, but not now. HA! PWNED AGiN, LIBZ!!!"He tweeted about the markets dozens and dozens of times during his first term.
Presidents don't cause recessions. None of them have that much power.
The question is, bear the cost of what — make sure billionaires are fattened?I don' know. The Trump Faithful seem ready to sacrifice themselves for him. I even met one in the supermarket, who told me she is willing to "bear the costs!".
