The Trump Effect Q1 (1 Viewer)

[Tensor101]

Do the MAGAs really believe that countries like Cambodia, Malaysia, Cameroon, etc. are really ripping us off as Trump has said? Look, if there's a leak in the roof, they fix it with scotch tape, the toilet is just a hole in the floorboards. They are not ripping us off.

As expected, U.S. economic growth stalled in the first quarter of 2025, almost entirely due to uncertainty about Trump’s economic policies and the impact of tariffs. Real GDP growth was -0,3% in the quarter. Consumer Prices increased by 3.6% in the first quarter, up from 2.4% in the fourth quarter of 2024.

Right wing and mainstream news may try to spin this as bad weather or something. But it’s not. It’s the Trump Effect, in plain sight.
