That's all? Are you telling me that he isn't even a convicted criminal like Trump is?

This guy disagrees with you. But what does he know! Nike 'Won't Build Factories' In US, They Will Sell To Countries Like China Economist Peter Schiff warned on Thursday that Nike Inc. (NYSE:NKE) won’t shift production to the United States despite newly imposed tariffs, predicting higher prices and reduced domestic sales for the footwear giant. What Happened: “Nike won’t build factories in the U.S. to make sneakers. That would add more cost than the 40% tariffs,” Schiff wrote on X. “The result will be fewer sneakers sold in the U.S. at much higher prices.”

JPMorgan becomes the first Wall Street bank to forecast a US recession following Trump's tariffs JPMorgan believes the US economy will enter a recession in the back half of 2025 as the impact of President Trump tariffs takes hold in the economy. The firm's chief US economist Michael Feroli sees a two-quarter recession occurring in the back half of 2025 as GDP contracts by 1% in the third quarter of the year and by 0.5% in the fourth quarter. For the full-year 2025, Feroli's team projects GDP will fall by 0.3%.

https://www.reuters.com/markets/us/wall-street-futures-lose-ground-after-china-retaliates-against-us-tariffs-2025-04-04/ Fallout from Trump's sweeping tariffs stoked fears of a global recession, wiping trillions of dollars of value from U.S. companies. Highlighting growing panic among investors, the CBOE Volatility Index (.VIX), opens new tab, or Wall Street's fear gauge, closed at its highest level since April 2020. Since late on Wednesday, when Trump boosted tariff barriers to their highest level in more than a century, investors have dumped stocks, fearing both the new U.S. economic reality and also how U.S. trading partners might retaliate by steepening their own trade barriers.

"Last thing we need": GOP panic grows as Trump team can't get its story straight on tariffs Republican lawmakers are seriously worried about President Donald Trump’s far-reaching and market-rattling plan to impose tariffs between 10 and 50 percent on all U.S. imports. Amid a bloodbath on Wall Street, GOP members of Congress worried the cost increases levied on many goods could come back to bite them in future races. Former Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., historically one of President Trump’s biggest enablers despite the animosity between them, called the scheme a “tax on everyday working Americans” on Thursday.

Good idea. As parts of my savings are in stock funds that's the last thing I wish for. It's bad enough already, but that's what you get when a useless clown is in charge. But at least the market crash hasn't interfered with with his endless golf rounds, thank the gods! What a strange thing to say. Guess you're just grumpy that the job figures that you mentioned when closer examined aren't as great after all. Or maybe you're just tired from all the "winning".

And in Russia Putin's political opponents keep flying out of windows or mysteriously getting poisoned but on this issue you don't question his innocence at all. Why is that? PS. Rhetorical question - I know why. -

Yes, about that: March jobs report: U.S. adds 228,000 new jobs — but that was before Trump’s tariff event https://www.marketwatch.com/livecoverage/march-2025-jobs-powell-today/card/march-jobs-report-u-s-adds-228-000-new-jobs-but-that-was-before-big-tariffs-4fKmmC2gibQC9hZaexDO The increase in hiring was concentrated in companies that tend to see pickup in business when the weather warms. Unusually cold weather in the first two months of the year depressed employment. The unemployment rate, meanwhile, moved up to 4.2% from 4.1%, matching the highest rate in five months. The latest snapshot of the labor market was taken before Trump announced the biggest U.S. tariffs since the Great Depression in the 1930s.
