While the Convicted Felon and his Grifting Crime Family Continue to Profit Bigly...
The Dow sinks, Down -640 points today...
"Trump's approval rating slips as Americans worry about the economy."
"The share of Americans who think the economy is on the wrong track rose to 53% in the latest poll from 43% in the January 24-26 poll.
Public approval of Trump's economic stewardship fell to 39% from 43% in the prior poll."
"In the latest poll, only 32% of respondents approved of Trump's performance on inflation."

Folks are awakening to reality: Incompetence and uncertainty are bad for the economy and the markets.

Every gop administration in the last 25 years has led us into a recession, Trump looks to keep the streak intact.
Agent Krasnov just personally authorized the largest tax increase on the middle-class in American history!

The trade war begins, Prices going up...the opposite of what was promised...
"The trade war stepped up a gear overnight, with 25% tariffs on goods from Mexico, Canada, and an additional 10% on China taking effect."
"Within hours, China and Canada announced retaliatory measures. Mexico said they will take similar measures."
"China raised tariffs on food and other farm products, as well as adding to export restrictions on American companies. It also filed suit with the World Trade Organization.
Canada increased tariffs on nearly $100 billion of U.S. imports."

These guys can read the room:
"I’m concerned." Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.)
"Uneasy, I think, is the word." said Sen. Jerry Moran (R-Kan.)

Are Dems focused on *how*


*How* not just to take power if and when this gets rejected.....

*How* to not just take power.....but how to make it governing power?

Nope.

Still playing checkers. And that's how when you win, the best you get is a Goldman Sachs Democrat and you say "it's better than Trump" or "better than Bush"

Wow with such strongly worded wavering, Trump must be quavering. Susan Collins needs to check to see if she still has all her pearls.

would not make much of the tariffs...look at trump years 1-4. trump has the propensity to back off from china, and after retribution, mexico and china may go up or down some small amount.
let's not forget trump's ability to change his tariff stance on any grift or whim. someone the genius trusts must have informed him that coffee tariffs, for a nation that needs much more global warming to grow it ourselves, is a bad idea. but this was a rarity.

what has changed is any notion that trump is responsible for ever-escalating level of prices across all things MAGA once cared about ; eggs, cars, houses...
this not hair-splitting over the rate of these increases to technically define inflation, but even that will apply in some cases.
this is the complete opposite of trump somehow lowering prices back to his 'great again' days. so what if MAGA is feeling it? the 24\7 media is basically silent compared to the pre-election cudgeling of biden.

so according to the gop, not only is the economy doing much better, but there is every chance prices will go down. and if\when it happens, trump will forbid it being called a recession.
