Day 208 – Here’s Stagflation!!!

Trump has done an amazing job. Amazing how fast he has taken an economy that was the envy of the world and sunk it. It’s not sunk yet. We’ve just heard the tear as the ship has hit the iceberg and some are asking, “What was that?”

That was the economy starting to stutter and shudder as it begins its grind to a halt.

What we will experience is higher prices, lower wages, fewer jobs and a general economic malaise, clled “stagflation.”

Last time this happened two Republican presidents tried to reverse the effects and failed (Nixon and Ford.) It took a Democrat (Carter) to end it. It cost him a second term. Then Reagan came in increased the debt, destroyed unions and it has been downhill for the middle class ever since. And the poor? Forget about it.

We are now at the point where Republicans are not even hiding their contempt for – well – just about everyone. They continue their policies of cheating and pushing outrageous lies. It’s hard to understand how people who went to some of the most prestigious universities have become so stupid. It’s hard to believe they believe what they are saying. Maybe they do. Maybe they don’t. It doesn’t really matter. The fundamental problem is that their theories, if you can call them that, are nonsense. As are their solutions. I can’t think of a single thing this administration has done to help people. The problems they whined about in the campaign aren’t being talked about. Other that to perhaps quote on exstent data and to say everything is fine.

Imagine the ship is sinking and someone come to the captain and says, “the ship is listing to port.” And the captain replies, “Close the ports.” Thus demonstrating no understanding of nautical terrminology. That’s where we are with the economy.

People are running from side to side on the decks below and the captain gets on the public address syste and announces everything is fine, just a little rough water.

At some point, reality delivers the truth. And the truth is this President has done his utmost to ruin this economy, our government, and the health of our nation.

    And then we receive this lovely notice from Social Security this morning, the one he said he wasn’t going to touch. Here’s an excerpt:
    Today, Commissioner Bisignano also joined President Donald J. Trump at the White House as the President issued a presidential proclamation, recommitting to always defend Social Security and recognizing the countless contributions of every American senior who has invested their time, talent, and resources into our Nation’s future.
    It goes on with more B.S.. Almost giving Trump credit for creating it.
    I think it’s a warning that the corrupt jerk has his eye on it
    For some illicit cut.
