Trump is the selfish, and spoiled rotten, child. He's been that all his life and continues to this day. Trump is busily ruining the country and those such as tinfoil cheer him on. Serious economic problems are coming. The signs are everywhere.

The problem is the fact that TRUMP has the fix in at the FED....unlike the manufactured crash of 08. (Trump has his own people embedded within the FED). The FED will shortly lower the interest rate index...this will carry the market into next year.....at that time TRUMP will suddenly lift all tariffs from China, Mexico...and any other tariff in play. The market will soar. Trump will get re-elected into a lame duck administration. Then....ALL HELL breaks lose....Trump will deliberately crash the FEDS market place, and go back on an independent standard where the US stands behind their own currency...removing the fed and the central bank completely out of the picture. It was the plan all along....the central bank has controlled the world economy long enough. Its time to end it and burry it. The US and Great Britain are just the first 2 nations to kick the legs out from under and hamstring the world bank. The PEOPLE are taking their nations and their independence back from the money changers.
I agree with you.....I am pray'n for a CRASH....a big one.....right after the 2020 elections.

For starters the President doesn't run the economy. We give the President way too much credit/blame for economic results. That being said they clearly play a role. Trump's prior history as a business man isn't relative to what I wrote in the thread you quoted. Corporate tax reform isn't unique to Trump. Deregulation isn't unique to Trump. Now the releasing of the animal spirits could be.
If you really want to get into the economy what do you think of what Powell and the Fed have been doing?
Hello Howard the Duck,
Yes. That's it in a nutshell. If they economy crashed, many of Trump's supporters would turn on him. Then they would begin to see his crimes in a new light. They would stop giving him the benefit of the doubt. With the support of constituents, enough of Congress would join the chorus advocating for his impeachment. Once the tide of public sentiment turned against him he would be toast.
Absolutely. They would stop protecting him, allow his taxes to be examined, which would lead to examination of his financial records. That would reveal all his dirty laundry, reveal he is a total crook and a terrible businessman who rips people off. He would not only be convicted, he would likely face charges upon becoming an ex-president, and would likely end up in prison.
It all hinges on the economy. A president is popular if the economy is good. As soon as the economy tanks, so does his support, and with it, his protection from prosecution.

Hello Sirthinksalot,
Thank you, but I am not very proud of this realization. No, I would not want anyone to do anything to bring this about. I do not wish this crash on the many who as you say would be hit very hard. But I can see the big picture and how things work.
I would not be surprised if there are some who would purposely bring this on if they thought it would give them power. I certainly do not believe all liberals and Democrats would do this, no.
I do strive to have a realistic impression of our political situation and it is very sad that this is what we have come to.
Naturally, I wish there were some other reality, but I am powerless to change the nation.
It is extremely unfortunate that we find ourselves in a such a compromised position that a recession can be seen as a necessity toward a better outcome, but that is exactly the case, like it or not. I didn't create the situation but I cannot ignore it. I do now wish for that to happen, and I also wish that if it does happen that it is just enough to get rid of Trump, and then the subsequent recovery is strong and rapid, and also includes getting control of the federal budget and the deficit which is far too high.
It should also be noted that this would not be required if Republicans would stop making excuses for the inexcusable behavior of the president, stop protecting him, stop giving him a free pass on his many serious lies and digressions, demand that he fulfill his word to release his taxes, demand that he also release and open up all his financial records, stop using the office as a profit tool, and begin to hold him accountable for the crimes of which he is accused.
Because the removal of a president is a political process, not a judicial one, he can break the law at will as long as he wins the court of public approval.
If only we could bang a few pots and pans and get him out as easily as the Puerto Ricans got rid of their leader!
