Economics Thread

He literally can’t be run again, why does approval rating matter - at all ?

Trump is actually in a great spot to do things that are unpopular but needed exactly because of this.

And yeah that business and tweet are clown material
Approval ratings blow down wind and it’s Election next year. He’s going to spend the next two years permablocked by Congress fighting impeachment charges if D take house and senate.

Polling has been all over the place and the recent polling on the 28 presidential election is not showing positive signs for the Dems.

Mid terms are tricky and a lot can change from now till when people are actually thinking about voting.

What will Trump need Congress for moving forward? He got his signature legislation passed and now its all about getting the economy to hum (going well), shutting down immigration (check), deportations (check), and expanding peace in the world (happening).

I pray the left tries to impeach Trump again. Let them be so stupid.

Recess appointments and temporary placements won't stop whats coming.

Still doesn't take away from the fact the signature legislation with massive cost cuts was passed along with the extension of tax cuts. Doesn't take away that the economy is roaring and the border is secured. All the funding for the deportation forces is approved and appropriated.

There is nothing Trump 'needs' from congress going forward.
 

As Bessent likes to say "The dog that didn't bark"

Going to be awkward around here in Q1 when the economy is roaring, wages are up, costs are the same, tariff coffers filling up and massive investment into the US leads to great jobs for AMERICANS.
I’d actually like to hear the broader clip here

Maher has been about the only lefty that has been able to step back

He will always have a brain block of leftism but he isn't fanatical like the new age so you can actually work with him.

But the results on the ground have been very clear. Economists predictions on the tariffs are going as well as health experts predictions of COVID.

Look at that roaring economy in 2024 under Joe Biden! The Dow reached an all-time high! Surely nothing could have been wrong with the economy.

Oh - You think markets are the only indication of a strong economy. Cute

I’m responding to a tweet you posted wherein Bill Maher says he was wrong because the Stock Market is exploding and he “sees” people living their lives like normal. This sentiment would have been right at home in 2024.
 
Once again, if Republicans want to follow the Dems’ mistake of pretending the economy is working when people can see that it isn’t, I won’t stand in their way.
