More MSM propaganda

There is no weakening economy...certainly not anything that would require intervention.

They might be eyeballing a payroll tax cut, but note how WAPO words the headline. They are still trying to talk us into a recession.

Show me any signs of a weakening economy. They aren't there.

They talked us into the last one, at the end of Bush's time. Things were not that bad , then all of a sudden the media launches a doom and gloom campaign.

Trying to crash the economy so they can then blame it on Trump and get us someone they deem as presidential material as president.

"people familiar with the discussions"

This is a backhanded way to breathe life into "muh recession" by trying to portray Trump & Co. as in a panic over the economy.

goddamn...people are stupid

They also let clinton lie about Bush I's economy unchallenged, was nowhere close to the "worst economy in 50 years". It was actually expanding by the election.

Note the date of this NYT article:

https://www.nytimes.com/1992/05/11/us/1992-campaign-economy-despite-recession-s-end-bush-may-face-unusually-harsh.html

and the quote from it:

"THE 1992 CAMPAIGN: The Economy; Despite Recession's End, Bush May Face Unusually Harsh Public Judgment"

He "faced harsh judgment" because the NYT and the rest didn't mention this too often between this article and the election.

and yet with that treatment the Bushes STILL kiss the media's arse

This is called Fake frickin news / projection / propaganda . It's how they manipulate the minds of the gullible . Dont be gullible . They're trying real hard to project a shite economy and recession to make Trump look bad and ruin his chances for 2020.

bullshite.

You know how we know this is all a lie? Because there isn't a single legitimate sign of a "weakening economy", and Trump and his "White House officials" knows this.

Good grief these people are evil to just bold face lie every chance they get.

it may be fake news as Axios isn't reporting it. but POS Drudge is headlining it.

Has Drudge posted one headline on even one SPYGATE FISA abuse finding?
