Paul Krugman: The day the Trump boom died
« on: October 27, 2019, 02:51:53 pm »

Last spring, Donald Trump and the people around him probably thought they had a relatively clear path to reelection.

On one side, it looked as if Trump had weathered the threat of politically fatal scandal. The much-awaited Mueller report on Russian election intervention had landed with a dull thud; the details were damning, but it had basically no political impact.

At the same time, Trump was convinced that he could run on the basis of a booming economy. Never mind that his claims to have run up the best economic record in human history were easily refuted; the reality seemed good enough to sell as a big success story.

Is that the same Paul Krugman who predicted the stock market would crash if Trump were elected? :silly: He's blinded by his Trump Hatred.
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

A common disability, apparently.

It has been clear for those who would see, that Trump is NOT bound to old norms.

Trump is on a path, to "decouple" from China.

Why should we encourage business, with a nation killing tens of thousands of ur citizens with Fentanyl, as just one example.

And using slave labor. And holding Uyghur  in captivity.

And stealing our intellectual property.

I believe history will record that Trump changes our relations with China, to a more favorable balance for America.

That's what you and I know, and Krugman can never accept.  He's as worthless at Economics as that other Economics student we all know who got her degree at Boston.

Paul Krugman won the Nobel prize for economics. That’s all one needs to know about the expertise of the brilliant economist, “Paulie walnuts” Krugman; the Nobel prize winning economist, wrong about everything.

Well, at least Krugman admitted a boom has been happening.
