The discussion in the video below is a typical MSNBC effort to bash Trump but the panel discusses the left’s hopes for a recession. Aaron Blake discusses an article that he wrote about past presidents who have been doomed by a recession. The left’s hope is that this will also sabotage the reelection of President Trump.

MSNBC’s Richard Stengel is a former Obama administration official but he gave a reality check to the leftists trying to destroy Trump’s chances for a win in 2020:

“Not to put cold water on this … The signs of recession are not exactly overwhelming. There was the inverted yield curve that everybody was talking about yesterday … Germany is down. China is down. Those things are not good, but the U.S economy is relatively buoyant, so I just don’t think we should be rooting for a recession, because that’s not good for America.”

“I also don’t think it’s really in the cards.  I’m not an economist, but there aren’t that many signs out there that a recession is on the horizon.”

MSNBC Analyst: I Don’t Think We Should Be Rooting for a Recession
Liberals have expressed their hopes for a recession in order to hurt Trump

David Rutz - August 15, 2019 5:15 PM

MSNBC analyst Richard Stengel said he didn't think anyone should be "rooting for a recession" Thursday during a discussion of economist fears of a downturn.

The stock market had a modestly good day Thursday after its worst drop of the year on Wednesday, in part due to fears of a looming recession prompted by an "inverted yield curve" showing the yield on 10-year treasury notes dipped below that of a two-year note.

The topic led the first block of MSNBC's Deadline: White House, known for its vehement anti-Trump stance. Stengel, a former Time editor and Obama administration official, appeared to address liberals who secretly—or in comedian Bill Maher's case, publicly—hope for a recession to damage the re-election hopes of President Donald Trump.

"Not to put cold water on this … The signs of recession are not exactly overwhelming," he said. "There was the inverted yield curve that everybody was talking about yesterday … Germany is down. China is down. Those things are not good, but the U.S economy is relatively buoyant, so I just don't think we should be rooting for a recession, because that's not good for America."

... I just don’t think we should be rooting for a recession ...

Will he catch more flak for dashing Dems' and Progs' hopes or for admitting openly for what Dems' and Progs hope?
