Trumpy-nomics -- "fixing" an economy that is already great. What could possibly go wrong?

Frankly. I'm worried.

 

 

Trump's plans are tailored towards oligarchs and inflicting pain on the masses.

I don't think we have many oligarchs here.

It's interesting to compare to Argentina who elected a Trump-like character as well for economic reasons.

But Argentina's economy has been a basket case for generations, and radical change made much better sense there.

The worse months of the inflation time under Biden would be like a pipe dream for them.

Indeed inflation is down in Argentina (still objectively quite bad though) but poverty has spiked massively as the price.

Elon Musk even before the election signaled great pain was in store for the American masses, but I don't think very many Trump voters heard that (or let it get in the way of the magical thinking about the powers of "strong man" Trump).

So more or less Argentina kind of HAD to take massive risks with their economy.

The USA most certainly didn't. On the face of it -- INSANE.

You overlook that the only alternative to Trump was Harris, and most of us know why she was defeated by Trump.

If you want to moan about it, blame the Dems for putting up the worst possible candidate.

Why worry? Until Trump's administration enacts the legislation or imposes its edicts it's an as is operation.

 

And if the expected changes are as bad as claimed, then the outcome will be the best thing that can occur for those who are opposed to Trump.  Financial pain and disarray will  illustrate the folly of Trumpenomics. On the other hand, if the Trump policies are solid, then there will be national prosperity. Looks to me like there will be a positive outcome either way. The fact is, that trump has a mandate to act, and he will.

Not talking about the election.

Talking about what we're getting.
