President Trump declined to rule out that the U.S. economy would contract this year and enter a recession, saying that his sweeping economic agenda could cause short-term turbulence that he believed would drive future prosperity

The damage being done by Elonald will in no way be fleeting. The damage from the tariffs alone, stand to haunt American businesses for many years as their foreign customers find other suppliers. Ask the farmers where their soybean contracts went during Trump1. Brazil says hello...
He seems to be thinking about this issue a lot. With the extra-functionality of his frontal lobe, he will find multiple alternative outcomes that can change or reverse, disappear or mutate. All the skills needed in a Mad world.
#Trump has an extremely deep cunning plan.... his plan, to deliberately start a US #recession, with #stagflation, is as cunning as a fox who’s just been appointed Professor of Cunning at Harvard University. This plan is so dastardly clever, that no economist in the whole universe understands it.
He could reverse this trajectory at any time by rolling back his stupid tariffs and stop talking about them. But of course he won’t because Vlad wouldn’t approve. The mission is to destroy the United States on its 250th birthday.
He could care less about the effect this will have on MAGA or the middle class. His record is one of consistently screwing anyone he does business with so none of this should come as a surprise unless you’re just stupid.
I'm sure the chill nature of the Journal's reporting would have been exactly the same if Biden, Obama, or Clinton had indicated that they were intentionally following a policy path that might lead us into recession.
Trump didn't mention who gets the future "prosperity". Clearly, the rich will benefit at the peril of the working class who has to pay higher taxes/new taxes via the tariff tax AND private tax increase which is higher consumer prices.
The Trump/GOP agenda is more prosperity for the rich!

Bit like the trade deals he put together when potus lastime, best deals ever, then this time worst fuckign trade deals ever.
Why are the public just accepting that this guy is just a fucking liar.
Donald Trump is a conman and traitor being controlled by Putin and the Russians.
