[Pain] HUGE, self-inflicted Recession incoming due to Trump/Musk

When I was younger, I was team Ginger. Then, as I matured, I realized that Mary Ann was the ****.

Now that I've had a lot of seasoning in life, I just appreciate that Mrs. Howell can take her teeth out.

 

What they voted for?

There hasn't been an election in Palestine in 20 years.

There is no democracy in Palestine.

only like 20% of all Palestinians were even old enough to vote the last time there was an election.

 

"If you repeat a lie often enough, people will believe it, and you will even come to believe it yourself."

It is amazing how generations change - people are born - people die - but these quotes continue to be true.

 

They voted Hamas into power 20 yrs ago and are suffering the consequences of that vote. Truth is most Palestinians are aligned with Hamas ideology. I've got very little sympathy for them.

 

FIFY.

 

What data do you look at when evaluating how the economy is doing? Curious because so many indicators are positive. GDP growth, inflation, job growth, trade deficit trend, budget deficit trend, healthy consumer, capital investment trends...

Do you make decisions based on data?


GOOD DAY

 

Look at history

 

FIFY.

 

Did the Palestinians vote Hamas into power?

 

What is the shelf life of a 2006 vote in Palestine?

 

Not sure, but you may be asking that of the sort of peeps who like to bring up that the democratic party supported slavery like 150 years ago.

 

Not much longer

 

... since the Gaza strip will soon be de-populated?

 

The latest government inflation and GDP figures are worthless,
and will be for months to come

White House National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett reportedly said that the record-long government shutdown could leave permanent gaps in U.S. economic data, which would, in turn, complicate efforts to assess the country’s growth outlook.



then Hasset, in a last ditch effort to win Trump's nomination as the next Fed Chiar, seized on the figures to boast about Trump’s economic policies, gaslighting the inflation figure to be “an absolute blockbuster report.”


all for naught, as Trump casts doubt on Kevin Hassett Fed nomination

​

 

Definitely need to raise the fed rate to cool down this white hot economy!!!

 

We had 4% growth under biden for multiple years lol Jesus you people are sincere morons

 

We've had government shutdowns before. None of the previous ones resulted in bad or missing economic numbers. I suspect some dishonesty is t play here.

Also, if you didn't see it, a private Danish pension fund announced they were withdrawing from US treasuries. Not a big deal in and of itself, but it cannot be separated from the saber-rattling going on about Greenland. If a few more rocks follow down the same slope, it could turn into an avalanche. You don't want to be the last one holding US paper if everyone else is cashing out. A bit of unnecessary extra complexity to our current world and national economy.

 

But in Trump's December speech, he claimed over and over that the economy is Biden's doing.... so you are saying this growth from the past quarter which Hassent is referencing clearly, is Joe Biden's doing??
