Bear in mind the people who actually compiled the metrics probably just got themselves DOGEed onto the unemployment line, so the next batch will be compiled by @libowner666 from twitter, a 19yo incel from Wisconsin.
If you DO believe metrics, the one to watch in the short term is inflation.
We also need to understand that short term might be bumpy because of the complete shift in beliefs.
Long term will be the true measure.
Thatās a long red tie Donny 2Scoops
Yeah nah.
Trump claimed heād fix the economy within weeks.
Yet all his done is make the US economy the most volatile itās been since the Vietnam war.
You canāt sack hundreds of thousands of public servants, start trade wars, mass deportation of low skilled workers, cancel Medicaid and social securityā¦ā¦ and think that the economy is going to hold up.
It canāt and it wonāt.
Itās naive to believe that it will fix itself, eventually.
heās been busy protecting women, give him a break.
We havenāt seen any results yet.
Youāre just hoping for failure.
Oh please.
Iāve stated facts, which is what you said you were only interested in.
Unfair call but speaking for myself if I thought economic failure experienced by his base might wake them up and end the awful experiment Iād hope and even pray for it. Thereās so much bad being done right now under his stinking Kingship that Iād advocate for violent overthrow. Sadly his base will accept that itās all Bidenās fault and that thereās a golden toilet future waiting just around the corner as he grifts off into the Russian/Saudi tomorrow, and in the meantime good people suffer in the millions.
This I think is why he wants to work with Russia. I think they see it as a way to just start occupying/owning places. Russia by invasion, US by protection racket. With maybe a bit of invasion. Other countriesā resources are just there for the taking. Just need leverage to force dealsā¦
Exactly - Trumpās own team are signalling the economy is tankingā¦sorry, theyāre signalling that āwhat remains of Bidenās economyā is tanking.
Truss, Trump, real world, pain. (Except the UK system, farked as it is, kicked Truss out in weeks. Trump is araldited to the boatās big big steering wheel.)
And make the world more peaceful/stable!
Trump blinking on tariffs? reduction hinted in tonight speech
If you assume he follows through on his statements, Iād be anticipatingā¦
A large, global, ādonāt buy American campaignā.
A large increase in Domestic unemployment (from Gov layoffs), coupled with a massive shortfall in cheap labour (deportations), and a hefty increase in inflation (tariffs).
Even ignoring that trickle down Economics is a proven failure, that domestic environment would see Consumer confidence being shot and would put the breaks on most private business investments anyway (which theyād be wanting to increase from the tax cuts).
He seems to be doing most of what heās claimed, although (from my understanding) the deportations are less than previous administrations. Even with cheap labour remaining available, I canāt see the rest of it making for a more desirable investment opportunity.
No you didnāt.
You said on the 12th of March. Then you said "you canāt do this without this happeningā.
Iām not wanting a fight. Iām just working through what is opinion and what is fact.
Have you heard of cause and effect?
Thats not really significant. The US population was already split close to 50/50 Repub vs. Democat before the election
I think trump actually believes his own messiah bullshit. Genuinely thinks he is a stable genius. Time will tell I guess.
Trump still about the same on average, always pick the example most favouringg
your assertion. (Gallup)
