Have you noticed that Russia Russia Russia, collusion, the Mueller report, and impeachment have all but disappeared as of late? Instead, we’re getting treated to a constant litany of “a coming recession.” Why? Because the media is hoping for a recession to defeat President Trump, and hoping that their constant yammering can make it happen
(Breitbart) President Donald Trump criticized many figures in the establishment media on Tuesday for rushing to report a looming recession, despite an overall good economy throughout his presidency.
“I think the word ‘recession’ is inappropriate because it’s just a word that certain people, I’m going to be kind, certain people in the media are trying to build up because they’d love to see a recession,†Trump said. “We’re very far from a recession.â€
The president commented to reporters at the White House that it was up to the Federal Reserve to keep growth going, pointing to their psychological impact on the economy.
“If the Fed would do its job, I think we would have a tremendous spur of growth,†he said.
There’s a huge difference between an economic slowdown and a recession. Places like the NY Times, Washington Post, NBC, etc, are all running fear stories, finding those economists who are Warning of a recession, and, when they are being honest, they say that it’s not the U.S. economy in trouble, but those in other nations. Also, that it’s simply a slowdown.
But, I disagree with Trump slightly: it’s not just the media, it’s Democratic Party politicians, their interest groups, hardcore leftist Internet outlets, and, sadly, right leaning #NeverTrumpers. That last group is the worst, because they’ve abandoned all their right-leaning positions to pray for a recession to get rid of Trump, never stopping to consider that it would mean a hardcore Modern Socialist winning the presidency.
They call themselves “libertarians” now, but, have been so infused with Trump Derangement Syndrome that they push Leftist positions and ideas. Nothing he does is ever good enough for them, no matter how conservative it is. They’re pushing ‘climate change’, defending Planned Parenthood, calling for banning guns and restricting the 2nd Amendment, dissing Israel. For instance, SE Cupp and Doug Mataconis. Both used to be reliable conservatives, but, if you read their Twitter feeds, watch SE’s show (no thanks) and read what used to be a conservative blog in Outside The Beltway, it’s almost all about Orange Man Bad, everything he supports Bad, and nary a bad word for Democrats.
As the saying goes, with friends like this who needs enemies? They, like the Democrats, really, really want a recession. None of them care if their loose talk hurts Americans. That’s how deranged they are.
