    Default U.S. Economy Drops 32.9% In Worst GDP Report Ever

    The coronavirus pandemic triggered the sharpest economic contraction in modern American history, the Commerce Department reported Thursday.

    Gross domestic product — the broadest measure of economic activity — shrank at an annual rate of 32.9% in the second quarter as restaurants and retailers closed their doors in a desperate effort to slow the spread of the virus, which has killed more than 150,000 people in the U.S.

    Even worse than that of the great depression.

    Whatever Trump touches dies. That being said, The USA is now the s**t-hole Trump accused other places of being. Think Trump Steaks, Trump water, Trump University, etc. Other countries have weathered the storm because they are not killing off their citizens and paid them to stay home.

    A Modest Proposal For Separating Blue States From Red

    Dear Red-State Trump Voter,
    Let’s face it, guys: We’re done.


    It is a tragedy that so much of the work that so many men and women toiled at for so long to make this a better country, and a better world, has been thrown away, leaving us all in such needless peril.

    This is why our separation in all but name is necessary.

    Be sure to give credit where credit's due...this recession started in February and was caused by the Russia Tax Cut from 2017/18 that every single Conservative insisted would lead to growth of at least 3%.

    No they thread ban because they are stupid with fingers in ears saying nah nah nah like a little kid.

    Their whole Trump is great world is blowing up, and it is so richly deserved. This election cycle is playing out like Clockwork Orange
    with toothpicks to hold their eyes open therapy, or maybe Jack Nicholson doing McMurphy while getting EST

    Why did Trump weaponize the sniffles hoax, murder 150,000 Americans and drop a loaf of Orange Turd
    of the engine of commerce? Discuss.

    Democracy scares them as well. Too confusing. They prefer daddy authoritarians.

    Now they're focused on why we shouldn't hold an election.

    You've been on this with Dummkopf for almost three years now. Now they can blame the trump virus for lousy GDP.

    And they all but promised 4%. 'Rocket Fuel' as it were.

    The only thing the trump/Russian tax cuts boomed was the deficit. It tore away cash on hand, leading to a near complete collapse of the economy last September. Had anyone heard of almost every major corporation going bankrupt at once before? And that was MONTHS BEFORE COVID-19!!!

    And the moron pressured the Fed to cut rates to zero. Probably trying to stimulate spending. How can you stimulate spending when the consumer class has no money?
