Looking Back 3 Years At Esteemed Nobel Laureate Paul Krugman: Trump Will Bring Recession

The economic fallout of a Donald Trump presidency will probably be severe and widespread enough to plunge the world into recession, New York Times columnist Paul Krugman warned in a New York Times opinion piece published early Wednesday.
quote:
"Under any circumstances, putting an irresponsible, ignorant man who takes his advice from all the wrong people in charge of the nation with the world's most important economy would be very bad news," he wrote. "What makes it especially bad right now, however, is the fundamentally fragile state much of the world is still in."
quote:
"Now comes the mother of all adverse effects — and what it brings with it is a regime that will be ignorant of economic policy and hostile to any effort to make it work," Krugman wrote. "So we are very probably looking at a global recession, with no end in sight.

If Krugman was even half as knowledgeable about economics as he pretends to be he would be worth trillions of dollars and could fix any issue he wanted to in the world

And yet he will continue to win "awards" and the Filth will stay on their knees swallowing every load of shite he delivers.

WTF is Pelosi doing back there?
Is she stroking out?
Hearing voices from god?
Playing pocket pool?

What specific policies was he possibly even envisioning in this insane doomsday hypothetical situation?

Pelosi looks like she accidentally kicked the desk with her shoe off and is trying to play it off.

I think Trump pushed Nancy’s button.

Krugman just needs more time to be proven correct. After all, we're still in Obama's Recove... naw, I can't do it.

I took a very basic ECON course at LSU in the late 1980s.
I've forgotten more about real world economics than Paul Krugman will ever know.
Hell - that's what they want, so they are ceded more and more control over people who, in their opinion, can't be trusted to make the right decisions - voting or any other choices.

quick hypothetical: what if that same week, krugman recanted, saying that his initial reaction was making the same mistaken reaction that brexit opponents had made, and that if anything it was likely that rapidly-growing deficits would temporarily strengthen GDP growth?

Krugman forgot how to think years ago, when he realized all he has to do is reinforce the feelings within the lib echo chamber and he will be adored for life and showered with praise.

Nobel, what a joke. Once again, progressivism destroys once respected things. Giving Obama a peace prize while he drone strikes an american citizen and expands our presence in the ME was prime example of how worthless regressives are.

Krugman and his ilk remain hopeful.

On a long enough timeline Krugman will be right one day then he'll win a Nobel Peace Prize in economics and be lauded by the global elites telling him how great his predictions were.

Link please, I'd love to read it (not sarcasm).

what he said after a few days alongside his recanting turned out to be spot on
if you look at things objectively
