We are now back to the Obama era economy. But mark my words, we will rebound from this. MAGA ON STEROIDS IS COMING!

Let me say this in trump for you: “if the stock market ever drops below the point a president took office he should be removed and the previous president brought back!”

Leftist strategy is predictable sometimes. Here, you have a tanking of the markets, for the purpose of then turning around, and saying 'ooo look what happened' as if it wasn't the intention... It's like the juvenile equivalent, where one kid purposely trips another kid, then points, and says 'LOOK, he fell down'.

What a PUPPET PUTZ!

You mean like Mitch McConnell circa 2008-2012? Desperate to make Obama a one term president so much so that they deliberately made the recovery as hard as possible on American people? Conservative strategy: if it happened more than 5 years ago our constituents are too dumb to remember and we shouldn’t remind them.

Sure, that could very well have been the intention (I'm no real Mitch fan, or Paul Ryan fan either); although I think there were Obama Admin and D policies that protracted recession recovery (one thing was focusing heavily on the unfortunate ACA)...
** But MSNBCNN strategy exploits the THREE WEEK memory span of the Public -- where anything that happened more than 3 weeks ago, is forgotten (unless it's reinforced with 'reminders'); this allows them to swing 180 degrees, ignore, and/or completely rewrite the history on the 'stories'.

That was fake news. 100% fabricated.

No duh you genius. But it’s the kind of BS your homie was always tweeting back when he thought being POTUS was something he would be good at

Well at least you’re smart enough to realize my personal intelligence is light years beyond yours. But making up śhit for political purposes just means you’re a douche hack who doesn’t understand the real world exists outside of momma’s basement.

The fact the Market has rebounded to the Obama high mark already is strong indication that the people who bought you every market crash in the last century no longer hold the control they once had. If your wise enough to understand what that means good if not go learn something.

Unfortunately, unless a third world war or some other huge event kicks off, we're heading into a depression...

Or you open up the markets and drop the lockdowns where infection is under control.

It doesn't have to be recession or depression but the people who have engineered the response want you to be poorer and the country and world weaker. It is unlikely that America will be able to keep shutdown and 100 other countries are the same. Within 1 weeks time enough statistics will be apparent to decide if the risks of not reopening outweigh the risks of staying closed. I dont think it will be inevitable that a depression occurs because the people who have caused every market crash last century are weaker than they have ever been in their history.
I can only say that the most comprehensive stats available on this pandemics progression are clearly indicating less than 0.2% mortality in given populations today. I will be very suprised if the numbers suddenly quadruple in a week.
Please try being less pessimistic and if your relying only on whats being told by Media then learn a thing or too on your own and go view Data on the Pandemic. It's not a particularly deadly virus on its own and practising distancing measures and allowing those who have recovered to go back to normal will be sufficient to hold secondary infectious waves at manageable levels. Depression can be averted and if we'reup and running within the next 30 days probably no long recession either if at all.

I don't think the preliminary numbers justified the shutdown to begin with, unless you look at the mortality rate vs age and compare it to the ages of our so called representatives and policy makers. I can understand the theory behind flattening the curve as I live with a nurse. But a shut down never should have been the answer for this and I'm not as optimistic about an economic bounce back as you, though I'm very hopeful for it. 10 million unemployment claims in the last two weeks of March, a spike in bankruptcies and I've just read a few smaller banks have folded. Pair that with this stimulous package pumping up inflation with 2trillion non existent dollars and the predatory loans built into it. I'm thinking we're going to see about as much bounce as a deflated basketball has.

Yes, well lets hope it ends sooner than later because that knock on effect is happening everywhere.

Yes, let's. Cheers🍺

True, soooo true!

It took 2 weeks to wipe away the entire growth seen in the Trump Presidency. Yeah, we know.

But unemployment is nearly back to where it was when Obama took office, not at the end of his office.

The corporate tax cuts, deregulation, etc which drove the already high market to further heights are no longer available to use. The FED rate is now basically zero, where Trump wanted it all along. They announced "unlimited QE" and the market barely flinched. Not sure what steroids are left in the tool box to drive the "MAGA economy" you're talking about. I mean theoretically they COULD further cut taxes while handing out trillions in govt checks but.............

It's a tanking of the Economy for political purpose. The Economy was very sound before this 'event' (not talking about a coronavirus, but the responses to it)... You can tell by the way some people talk, that they WANT the Economy to collapse.

You forgot to tell him about Event 201 and John Hopkins University.

If by "the economy" you mean the stock market, I'm not sure I agree.

Or they could start businesses up again and trim the trillions of waste in the federal govt. Take back the power of the purse from the Federal Reserve, then cut taxes by 50%, set the interest rate based on a math equation instead of the whims of the private bankers and we'd have a booming economy.

Agreed!

Hi Lokiare, Look this up. I know I didn't learn it from the MSM but the Fed is now under governmental control. Treasury and Fed Combined.

I think the actual clear details (and effects) of the Fuster-Cluck Bill will probably only slowly be revealed... Not necessarily because it isn't written on the pages -- but that it's hidden in the convolution of the language, and the unknown of how the Economy will react to it.

Ok.. I don't even know where to begin with that statement.

Never happened. Please stop repeating fake news. Also the really rich don't pay taxes because they put all their wealth in offshore accounts and foreign companies. So it doesn't matter how much they are taxed, they aren't paying jack!

Trump is an idiot! AN IDIOT I TELL YOU. He almost caused world war 3, he is causing the earth to be hotter than usual, and everything bad is all his fault

Good one, great job, ORANGEMANBAD.

MAGA has a price, and it looks like it's gonna be 200,000 human lives needlessly lost because this walking bag of assholes in a suit fired all the pandemic team and thought a virus would "just go away, like a miracle."

Why don't you just come out and scream that you HOPE 200k people die, so that it can hurt 'maga', and satisfy the hate-milking?

On the day that Trump made his false claim about lupus patients, the Lupus Foundation of America put out a statement that said, “There is no evidence that taking hydroxychloroquine (Plaquenil) is effective in preventing a person from contracting the coronavirus (COVID-19). People with lupus should follow the guidance of their doctor and the safety guidelines being issued by the CDC.”

trump is a threat to the health and well being of all Americans and more that are just visiting or listening to him from somewhere else. please, your hero worship is not helping anyone including yourself.

Nope. Didn't happen. He suggested cuts, then magically one of the viruses they were studying gets loose and the media fearmingers. Total coincidence...

Hey looky here, trump told the truth once.... you freaking idiots.
