re: Would we be in a recession under a Trump second term?

WE would have some serious inflationary pressure regardless because of all the COVID stimulus but Trump wouldn't be waging a war on fossil fuels, he would be cutting taxes, regulations, securing borders, cutting trade deals that would benefit on-shore manufacturing, cutting government spending, and he wouldn't have passed that ridiculous second spending package that lit the fuse. I don't think Putin moves on Ukraine if Trump were President and the Ukraine war has exacerbated this whole thing.

We would have some inflationary pressures but no I don't think we would have raging inflation that necessitated these rate hikes....I think we have strong economy with full employment and moderately higher interest rates
