Another "Coastal Elite" tells us not to believe our wallets and praise Bidenomics..


New York Times columnist Paul Krugman shrugged off the notion that most Americans are actually struggling in what he declared a "good economy" under President Biden, despite what they tell pollsters.

"I’m OK, people I know are OK, but somewhere out there it’s terrible," Krugman wrote Tuesday while blocking replies to his post on X.

Krugman shared a link to his Monday column titled "Good Economy, Negative Vibes: The Story Continues," where he began by saying "we’ve had so much winning that we’ve gotten tired of winning, or at any rate blasé about it" when it comes to economic news.

"Paul Krugman doesn't know any regular Americans, and so he and the rest of the corporate press mock and gaslight you while you struggle with your rent or mortgage, food and other living costs. Absolutely zero compassion or connection to reality," financial commentator Carol Roth reacted to Krugman's post.

"How much do you get paid to be this out of touch with normies?" Daily Caller editor-in-chief Mike Bastasch asked.

"Krugman is ok. He locked replies, so you can not tell him if your fiscal experience is otherwise," said Michelle Ray of the crypto company SmartFi.

Didn't Krugman get a Nobel Prize for Economics despite never being right about anything?

First, it’s Paul Krugman

Secondly, his comments represent to widening chasm between average Americans and the elected and media class?

I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

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.

That's one of the best lines from Good Morning, Vietnam. But knowing Krugman, he wouldn't appreciate it.
"The most terrifying force of death, comes from the hands of Men who wanted to be left Alone. They try, so very hard, to mind their own business and provide for themselves and those they love. They resist every impulse to fight back, knowing the forced and permanent change of life that will come from it. They know, that the moment they fight back, their lives as they have lived them, are over. -Alexander Solzhenitsyn

Any who gives Krugman any credibility is an idiot.

This is classic Krugman.

The sky is blue, but if it's better for his jackassed POV for it to be green...well, by golly, it's green. 

And we'll just ignore anyone who looks up says....gee, looks pretty blue to me.
