US economy shrank 0.5% between January and March, worse than 2 earlier estimates had revealed

[gfm7175]

Economists are saying

This is where you went wrong. You decided to listen to unnamed "economists" instead of having a basic understanding of what the GDP equation is (and how each individual part of it affects the topline GDP number).

if Trump's Tariffs are put into effect

Tariffs already ARE in effect, FlipTheBird......... The USA has already collected upwards of $80B from them. (probably closer to $90B by now; the number I'm quoting is outdated)

the GDP of the US could fall as much as 3 to 5 percent.

You are listening to some very STUPID people. The Q2 GDP number is going to be MUCH higher than it was in Q1. I even made a prediction thread about it on the very same day that the Q1 GDP figure was released and libtards were loudly celebrating the Q1 GDP number being slightly under 0%. Let's just say that libtards will be grasping at straws trying to come up with a reason why next month's very high Q2 GDP number is somehow a "bad" thing.

And they expect the US if not the world will be in a deep recession by late fall.

The USA is currently coming out of an economic depression that was caused by Team Democrat back in 2020 (under the guise of "COVID"). The economy is currently growing and is doing much better than it did during the Autopen Regime.

As of right now Trump has got Manufacturers and retailers all in a frenzy not knowing what to do.

This is a lie. Many manufacturers and retailers (that conduct foreign/multinational business) are currently moving and/or adding manufacturing to the USA so that they don't have to pay tariffs to access the USA consumer base. This is VERY GOOD news for USA businesses and USA workers.

And them market is also unstable.

What is "the market"?

It is a real mess and Trump's BS isn't helping.

WHAT is a "real mess"? What is "Trump's BS"? You aren't actually saying anything, dude.

This is a rather piss poor attempt to deflect.

For one thing stupid IF you ever read the news you would know a LOT of the TOP NAMED economists are saying the SAME THING as the unnamed economists are saying.
And I am SURE they know more about what is going on in the economy then a stupid ASSHOLE like you do.
And again IF you ever read the news you would know NOT ALL of Trumps tariffs are in place, IF you don't know Trump said the rest of them will be going into effect on July 9th and then you will really start seeing prices go up.
When did point 1% become " MUCH HIGHER " ?
WHAT?????????
" The USA is currently coming out of an economic depression that was caused by Team Democrat back in 2020"
Do you even know what a DEPRESSION is?
When Trump left office in 2021 the economy was in a lot worse shape then when he took office. over 7 MILLION more people were unemployed then when he took office.
Only President ever to have that many less people working when he left office then when he took office.
And two major auto companies have moved all their production OUT of the USA and right now GM and FORD are raising the price of their autos because of Trumps tariffs making their sales fall, and at least in this area they are laying people off, Ford has been laying people off for a week or two then brings them back for a week or two and has been telling these people they may be getting laid off indefinitely if things don't turn around soon.
The trucking industry is starting to slow and is laying off people,
Major retailers are laying off people, people are NOT spending like they did 6 months ago . Trump has consumer confidence dropping likw a rock.
And you say things are going good.
After July 9th when ( IF ) Trump puts the rest of his tariffs into effect maybe you will wake up and see the real facts.

Who? Jim Cramer??

And I am SURE they know more about what is going on in the economy then a stupid ASSHOLE like you do.

How would YOU know? You just mindlessly believe whatever some unnamed "top economists" tell you.

And again IF you ever read the news you would know NOT ALL of Trumps tariffs are in place,

All baseline tariffs for all countries are already in place. It's just a matter of determining specific rates for specific countries. That's what the ongoing trade negotiations have been about.

IF you don't know Trump said the rest of them will be going into effect on July 9th and then you will really start seeing prices go up.

"The sky is falling!" "The sky is falling!" "The sky is falling!"

When did point 1% become " MUCH HIGHER " ?
WHAT?????????

WTF are you even talking about?? I'm talking about the Q2 GDP report which will be coming out one month from now (on July 30th). That GDP number will be MUCH higher than Q1's number.

" The USA is currently coming out of an economic depression that was caused by Team Democrat back in 2020"

Yes. Do YOU? (Answer: No, you don't)

When Trump left office in 2021 the economy was in a lot worse shape then when he took office.

Cherry picking dates; ignoring history during the days between those dates.

over 7 MILLION more people were unemployed then when he took office.

Cherry picking dates; ignoring history during the days between those dates (in this case, mainly the Team Democrat "COVID" hoax).

Only President ever to have that many less people working when he left office then when he took office.

See above.

And two major auto companies have moved all their production OUT of the USA

Who? I've only ever seen stories about auto companies moving their production TO the USA (in order to avoid tariffs while retaining access to USA consumers).

and right now GM and FORD are raising the price of their autos because of Trumps tariffs making their sales fall, and at least in this area they are laying people off, Ford has been laying people off for a week or two then brings them back for a week or two and has been telling these people they may be getting laid off indefinitely if things don't turn around soon.

The trucking industry is starting to slow and is laying off people,
Major retailers are laying off people,

people are NOT spending like they did 6 months ago .

Outright LIE.

Trump has consumer confidence dropping likw a rock.

Outright LIE.

And you say things are going good.

Yes, because they ARE.

After July 9th when ( IF ) Trump puts the rest of his tariffs into effect maybe you will wake up and see the real facts.
