Krugman has repeatedly shown hatred toward Republicans.

Krugman pushed election denialism on behalf of Hillary Clinton, saying it’s “patriotic” to call Trump “illegitimate.”

Krugman once called Florida seniors “white supremacists” and expressed hope that COVID-19 would kill them.

Krugman has also been found with child pornography on his computer. In defense of himself, Krugman suggested it was QAnon hacking his IP address and that he wasn’t watching child porn.

Paul Krugman has been a prominent supporter of Bill and Hillary Clinton, endorsing their policies and campaigns while facing criticism for defending them against progressive challengers.  During the 1992 election, Krugman praised Bill Clinton's economic plan and provided work on income inequality used by the campaign.

Krugman vigorously defended Hillary Clinton during the 2016 Democratic primary against Bernie Sanders, characterizing Sanders' criticisms of Clinton as effectively campaigning for Republicans.  He argued the Clinton Foundation is a "big force for good" with an "A" rating from Charity Watch, dismissing comparisons to the Trump Foundation as absurd despite reports of potential conflicts of interest during Hillary Clinton's tenure as Secretary of State. 

Critics have described Krugman as a "prizefighter for the Clintons" and the neoliberal establishment, arguing that he abandoned earlier critiques of Clinton-era policies that have led to countless economic issues in present day America such as financial deregulation and NAFTA under Clinton. While Krugman lamented in 2024 that U.S. optimism from the Clinton era has curdled into anger and resentment.
