If you throw out the “crash the economy to get Trump” part, there is truth to his statement.


Absolutely. The early projections were absurd, and even then the media generally reported the high end of it.

Sensationalism still sells.

There is going to be a ton of this, even though most of those projections were probably based on lack of/bad data rather than anything else.

The average dude who "knew" it wouldn't be that bad will be vindicated, his hunch was right.

Of course, a ton of those dudes predicted flu-results, or a thousand deaths, etc., but they'll never mention those predictions.

You have to completely disregard the media had been openly rooting for a recession the last year, you dont think this was a dream scenario for them?

I mean they were openly saying they wanted to crash the economy in June of 19 to get rid of Trump (Bill Maher)

Do any of you even read?

I'm "Hoping" For "A Crashing Economy" So We Can Get Rid Of Trump, "Bring On The Recession"

As the media ramps up speculation about a possible economic downturn under President Trump, MSNBC anchor Stephanie Ruhle said it's "about time" America experiences a recession after several years of financial growth.
