Part of USAID, NATO, trade agreements, foreign military bases, etc. is influence and stability. This brings trading partners and economic development with our allies. The US economy has thrived because of this balance, the dollar is the world’s reserve currency, other countries buy our debt, etc.
Looks like Trump's new "golden age" is really a golden shower age because he is pissing all over the American people. But hey, at least something is finally "trickling down" 🤷
A GREAT RECESSION!! Thanks maga and you other dumb shits who voted for another stimulus check, and all the other dumb shit you should've thanked Obama for making possible. Dumb shits!
CANADIANS. Do not believe that this will last for 4 years. Trump has no intentions of leaving when his term is up. He cares for nothing and no one but himself. He is knowingly hurting his own country. He wants Canada. Do not doubt it. We must all do our share. This is. It a drill.
Mass terminations of federal employees 🔥🚨⚠️, directed by Donald Trump 🏛️💀👁️ and Elon Musk 🤖🧠 through DOGE 🏴☠️, are expected to wreak havoc on the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) 📉📊💥 Employment Situation report for February 2025, scheduled for release on March 7, 2025. ⏳🚷💣 https://youtube.com/watch?v=UM_WCKwSkmc
Yes but usually the President doesn't try to drive the economy into the wall. I think the real question is what happens when the rabble start losing jobs.
That capitalism, for you.
Just like 2008, when the rich, stole billions from us all, around the world.
And all the other times before.
Recessions, are always planned, they are never an accident.
I get that feeling too. It's what Russia wants. They won the regime change and are leading DOGE and Krasnov. USA systems will collapse by summer and Putin will complete his land grab going further than the world can imagine. The Russian mob is running the USA now. wow.
1. Mom is like so many people who voted for the trickster-traitor either because of their bigotry, hate, misogyny, racism and small mindedness. They are now trying to find an excuse to justify their vote. The man is a pathological liar that every-time he opens his foul mouth all that comes out…..
2. …..is lies, which makes you wonder why anyone in their right mind would believe what he says. A woman posted here on blue that she voted for him because he said he was going to make IVF free. For goodness sake, who did she think between the looney bin and Harris/Walz who had his children…..
3…..through IVF would have made it possible for her to get IVF for free, the traitors or them? Americans particularly the right leaning ones keep voting against their own better interests because they thought their vote will hurt the minorities and the poor amongst us, but they come to find out…..
The fucked up thing about that is she was fine throwing literally everyone under the bus to get something she wanted for free. 1. If I'm forced to carry bc it's God's will then it's God's will she can't have them. 2. Why should anyone else pay for her medical procedure?
4. …..their vote is about to make them lose their farm, their home and their livelihood. As many Americans are now feeing. As much as it pains me to see my fellow Americans hurt, can we truly feel sorry for them?????? The answer to that is capital NO! You made the bed just lay…….
I honestly didn’t believe the president (any president) had this much power over the economy, and that all blame/credit they got was just riding on normal cycles. I now see that with true grit and determination, a president can totally run a healthy economy into a ditch in less than 60 days.
Demand your representatives in Washington exert broad displays of Civil Disobedience during Trumps speech “State of the Union” speech tonight.
Do not allow this charade to go on any longer, every lie should be met with distain …
In Britain we had Liz Truss who crashed the economy. You’ve got the Tangerine Turd. He’s making USA a laughing stock. Can’t understand why the credible, decent Republicans are so spineless by not speaking out.
Dump the Trump and his reptilian cronies Vance and Musk. All Shits of the highest order!
He’s paying Putin back by destroying America. Putin thinks USA caused collapse of Soviet Union. In fact, with Musk help he can pay Putin directly through Treasuries payment system-THINK ABOUT THAT!
Sadly for 90% of the people that voted for him, the economy was never at the root of why they voted for him in the first place. We do so enjoy reliving history though, don't we?
Yeah. I'm kinda in denial about the degree to which that's a factor. He started right out with bigotry and it gained him a following and the highest office. I have no love left for country, only people within
The drop is fast because he and his team have perfected something that they wanted very badly. Something they wanted since 2015. They perfected insulating him from truth, law, logic, and consequences. That, plus his rapid descent into dementia, doom us. Thank goodness for the remaining free world.
Tomorrow I’ll watch the break down of Trumps speech, his lies and deceptive remarks, etc.. I will not watch him tonight but one things for sure he won’t bring up the stock markets.
I am very curious to see how this American saga will end this time ! Will he really end up in jail one day, if he doesn't die before that. Or will he be killed by Putin and his other "friends" because he knows too much.
Trump, his team, Vance, Musk, his team, MAGA in general.

I’m just worried that it’s so fast that blaming it on Biden will be an effective way to avoid blame even though actions taken in the last month clearly led us down this road
Mom, sorry you can't afford food, but it isn't going to matter because next month's social security check isn't coming and your Medicare has been terminated.
Don’t worry though soon maybe next year, groceries will be free. We will get rations like North Korea, it’s going to be okay mom. Now don’t say anything negative do we don’t go to those camps.
Trump and Elon Musk are stealing our Social Security and Medicare.
What can we do???
Is mass protest our only tool? Every senior I know is scared to death. Writing about it is not enough. What can we do?
True, but I believe much worse is coming. With what the Republicans want to do to Medicaid and Social Security, most of us oldies will be out in the streets and dying soon. Like Covid, but on a much grander scale, think how much money this will save.
If you remember Covid, you might remember that many working age people thought it was no big deal until their grandma died. And even then many didn’t care.
Actually and factually...I never throw money away. I am an economist (specializing in international trade) and I can count to 3. The rest is just economic market forces.
The instigator of tariffs is always the loser (although the other parties suffer some losses too).
Agsin, I keep hearing recession. We are IN a bad recession except the numbers haven’t gone on the scoreboard yet. We are headed downward. It’s called A DEPRESSION.
If you can call it what it is people can’t get ready for it.
Imagine our grandparents knew 6 months ahead that 10-12 years of economic want was coming? They would have canned their asses off and stocked their homes like a nuclear survival shelter.
I'm better prepared than most but I don't even have a year's worth of everything i need. Pretty much impossible to be stockpiled for 10.
Yeah, we should prepare and learn skills but I don't think it's enough for what's coming.
I also have chest and upright freezers that are packed.
If you don't believe that many (not all) if Trump's supporters have interests in the stock market, including retirement accounts, which will be even more crucial as SS gets cut, you have a skewed idea of the scope of his supporters.
Good question! He won because he was able to sway some voters from a variety of groups and backgrounds. I imagine enough of them regret that decision now to sway the prevailing opinion the other way. Let's all hope it's not too late.
Most of them anyway. Personally I've been a thorn in the federal governments side for decades at Great personal cost and have no intention of letting up.
At least the last Republican President who helped rock the economy was George Bush Jr and his home mortgage bank failures. And that happened at the END of his presidency, not within the first 3 months of a new term!

More than a recession coming in 3, 2, 1, .....
We will have gone from four positive GDP’s in 2024 with a 4th quarter +2.8% GDP to a negative 1.5% or worse in a single quarter.
Another Trump record set!

They won't wake up until they've lost everything.
Just like 2008, when the rich, stole billions from us all, around the world.

Recessions, are always planned, they are never an accident.
This will be so much worse‼️
I give up, facts are absent at her house.
And those white women?
And to PoC?
Only those who cannot plan, will fail
Hope to see ya on the other side.
Do not allow this charade to go on any longer, every lie should be met with distain …
Take care of me!!” Dummies.
Dump the Trump and his reptilian cronies Vance and Musk. All Shits of the highest order!
And then explain what a commodity is, unfortunately.
It shouldn't have to be said but one little run through economics 101 would do us a world of good.
will suffer now.

Some more explanation for his behaviour.
The original article where the printscreen is comming from: https://www.newsweek.com/trump-russia-moscow-visit-1987-656115
Many more articles/Wikipedia links to find about Trump doing business with Russian maffia.
Or is there going to be a civil war again 🤔

Feel free to direct them to their cross overs. They do await.
All this shit with election, Putin, etc is designed to keep him out of prison.
Imagine…a country lit afire because one guy won’t man up (even though he’s all “Alpha Male”) and admit his mistakes.
Biden, like Obama before him, had heavy lifting to undo Republican damage to the economy, but again Trump inherited a strong one
This time around he looks intent upon wrecking it in record time
What can we do???

Now? Good luck.
Here’s the survey they are circulating among conservatives

Trump posted this on Truth Social early today.

Maybe MAGA will turn on Trump.
And of course, he'll do no such thing.
And of course, he'll do no such thing.
This will be a war with casualties on both sides, but economically, the US stands alone now and thus far more vulnerable than Canada and Mexico.
My money is on Canada and Mexico!
The instigator of tariffs is always the loser (although the other parties suffer some losses too).
If you can call it what it is people can’t get ready for it.
I'd rather be blissfully ignorant at this point.
Any help?
Even still, you can only stockpile so much.
Btw...
Yeah, we should prepare and learn skills but I don't think it's enough for what's coming.
I also have chest and upright freezers that are packed.
Agree.
It's when that SS or SSDI check doesn't hit or their SNAP card is empty, that they'll notice.
Of course it’s the best at being the worst but he never actually won anything before, so I’m sure he will be pleased 🤣
