In a Truth Social post on Thursday, Trump announced that he was revising a lawsuit against The New York Times to include the organization’s polling research, which currently shows him tanking on everything from the economy and immigration to his handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files.
2018 was when he first started doing things that affected the economy. The trump slump was real. He was bugging about the Fed not flooding the economy with money even more (which would have made inflation even worse later on).
Then he completely botched the covid response, allowing it to spread faster and farther and longer, which continued to batter the economy.
Yes, that’s my point. Trump fucked the economy. Covid, including Trump’s response to it, fucked it further.
