Paul Krugman: “Riots Are GOP Fantasy, BLM Most Well Behaved Protest Movement In History”

28 deaths
Thousands of assaults and batteries
$2B in property damage
And this is a Nobel Laureate and Princeton professor.
I’m perpetually shocked at how we are lied to with such ease and reckless aplomb by our supposed experts and leading voices on a daily basis.

Nobody in their right mind actually believes this

Krugman was a consultant for Enron, and flatly stated that “our business model is sound, and financials are in order”

The guy is a complete buffoon and he's never been correct on ONE thing he has predicted. But he's loved by the left for his propaganda narrative and carrying the water for communism.

Krugman had the only privilege that exists.
He's also a liar of the first order.

Doublethink
War is Peace
Silence is Violence
Freedom is Slavery
Trans- Women are Women
Ignorance is Strength
Getting hard to pick out the actual Orwell quotes at this point, right?

Is he a holocaust denier too?
Another example where you can't tell if a statement is satire or not.
Does anyone else notice how often this is happening?

No, Paul, January 6th "Insurrection" is a Dem fantasy. BLM is a Marxist revolutionary organization - or at least it espouses this (may just be grifting/preying on guilty white progs). And their riots, deaths and property damage are very, very real (unlike the left's fantasies about January 6th).

Krugman is part of the Global Elite....that explains most of his nonsensical ramblings.
Posted on 4/23/21 at 8:40 am to LuckyTiger
At this point, I think it's a badge of honor or contest for the left to see who can tell the biggest whopper and keep a straight face.

Just a friendly reminder how dishonest and unhinged Krugman is...
Krugman vs. Krugman
Bush baaaaad, Obama goooood.
Anyone quoting or listening to Krugman is a fool.
Krugman vs. Krugman
quote:
Krugman 2003 [deficit at 3% of GDP, 10-year deficit projection $1.8 trillion]: "I'm terrified ... we're looking at a fiscal crisis that will drive interest rates sky-high ... the conclusion is inescapable ... the task is simply impossible ... the fiscal train wreck, is already under way." Or,
[] Krugman 2009 [deficit at 11% of GDP, 10-year deficit projection $9 trillion]: What's to worry? The Ozzie & Harriet era of government finance will be easy enough to bring back. Just stabilize the debt in terms of GDP and be happy!
Bush baaaaad, Obama goooood.
quote:
The numbers? The deficit in fiscal year 2004 -- $413 billion, 3.5 percent of the gross domestic product.
Back then, a disapproving Krugman called the deficit "comparable to the worst we've ever seen in this country. ... The only time postwar that the United States has had anything like these deficits is the middle Reagan years, and that was with unemployment close to 10 percent." Take away the Social Security surplus spent by the government, he said, and "we're running at a deficit of more than 6 percent of GDP, and that is unprecedented."
...Fast-forward to 2010.
The numbers: projected deficit for fiscal year 2010 -- over $1.5 trillion, more than 10 percent of GDP.
This sets a post-WWII record in both absolute numbers and as a percentage of GDP. And if the Obama administration's optimistic projections of the economic growth fall short, things will get much worse. So what does Krugman say now?
We must guard against "deficit hysteria." In "Fiscal Scare Tactics," his recent column, Krugman writes: "These days it's hard to pick up a newspaper or turn on a news program without encountering stern warnings about the federal budget deficit. The deficit threatens economic recovery, we're told; it puts American economic stability at risk; it will undermine our influence in the world. These claims generally aren't stated as opinions, as views held by some analysts but disputed by others. Instead, they're reported as if they were facts, plain and simple."
He continues, "And fear-mongering on the deficit may end up doing as much harm as the fear-mongering on weapons of mass destruction." Krugman believes Bush lied us into the Iraq War. Just as people unreasonably feared Saddam Hussein, they now have an unwarranted fear of today's deficit.
Questions: Didn't Krugman, less than six years ago, call the deficit "enormous"? Wouldn't he, therefore, consider a $1.5 trillion deficit at 10 percent of GDP mega-normous? Didn't he describe the economy with 5.5 percent unemployment as "weak"? Isn't the current economy, at 9.7 percent unemployment, even weaker? If the 2004 deficit was "comparable to the worst we've ever seen in this country," wouldn't today's much bigger deficit cause even more heartburn?
Nope. Now a huge deficit is actually a good thing: "The point is that running big defict
