Remember when Paul Krugman and other fraudulent/corrupt far-left economists...

assured everyone that Trump was going to crash the economy and we may never be able to recover? They were all spewing this politicized garbage between October 2024 and April 2025?
The stock market is reaching all time highs almost every day. Here are the current rates...

14 economists said Harris would be better on the economy.
I laughed at that because price controls and giving people $25k to purchase a home was really going to help.

Still waiting for those tariffs to collapse the economy

Wall Street isn't the economy. How many times do we have to tell you people that?

Krugman was one of the editors of Ramparts back in the late 1960's. Ramparts was a new left Maoist magazine.

Good point. Another is that this hasn’t played out yet. If the economy stalls next year Krugman, et al, will say they were right. I think Trump will prove them wrong, but it’s way too early to spike the football.

My poor friend that cashed out his 401k in April hoping to build his dream cabin but had settle on a 14 fit aluminum John boat instead is really kicking himself today.
We begged him to be a bull like us, but he just has to be a bear.

I mean giving those illegals all of that money and benefits, and free phones, and free rent, and free food, and free healthcare has certainly benefited the average AMERICAN…

They're still saying it... And now the Democrats are trying to everything they can to make it come to fruition. It's obvious they are doing what they can to try to tank the economy before mid-terms... or at least convince voters it is tanking.

That must be why he is so angry and his TDS has really been off the charts lately.

It's fun to spike the football to own the libs, but this economy is not great. We can say it's not Trump's fault, but white collar is laying off people by the tens of thousands, stem college grads can't find jobs, and most job postings online are literally fake. This is the worst job market I have ever seen, and statistically is the worst since the 2008 Financial Crisis. You can argue that Trump is managing this situation the best that it can be, and is setting up the foundation for a quick recovery, but the current situation is as dire as any in my life time.
Also, a lot of the stock market gains are in AI, and there's some really shady circular investment going on in AI right now. There's a lot of smoke that we may be in the middle of a really weird bubble on the verge of bursting. I am not wishcasting this. I am a Trump supporter who believes in his economic platform. However, the reality of the situation today is what it is. Jobs are hard to come by, food has exploded in price, and housing and healthcare remain unaffordably expensive.

It’s too early to spike the football?
Would a bunch of High-Fives be more appropriate ?

You can celebrate however you want. If the economy tanks next year, you’ll realize you were celebrating at halftime. The prize is the 2028 election. If the economy tanks the Dems will win it; if not, the Republicans will. The current administration will be blamed or credited for the results whether they deserve it or not.

The market needs to go up an average of 8% per year just to keep up with money printing. 8% means no loss, but no gain.

I’m up 15% YTD so I’ll be compounding that into 2026. Thanks Drumpf.
