Howie Lutnik is always so bouncy and obviously totally full of it. He's perfect for this misadministration.

It's obviously the erratic tariff policies on and off like a light switch that has effected many businesses which are effected by import tariffs in a way, that are now the defining component of our economy today and, sorry Lutnik, that is all on Trump whether you want to admit it or not! It's pobably not going to be referred to as the Trump economy though; it's the Trump disaster! Realize trying to make Trump's tariffs trying to make tariffs into a profit center for our Treasury while the rest of the world is still tryimg to creatie products people around the world want. His scheme to bing wealth to America through tariffs is counterproductive and an insult to American business by assuming "protectionism" is the only way American busibesses can aucceed.

The second Trump decided to manipulate tariffs, fire thousands of government employees, freeze money going to social safety programs, and threaten our international trade partners, it became his economy.
Republicans can't do anything but lie, that's all they're good at doing.
Just wait until next year when their big beautiful trillion dollar tax breaks go into effect.

Not to mention chasing out or arresting the people who worked the fields and tended to live stock and fed and took care of this nation.
This nightmare has just begun.

Fine. Let's put a pin in it. If the economy is worse by the end of the year then the media should savage Lutnick and Trump on it. Don't let them move the goalposts or deflect.

Lotnik is not considered to be an important commentator on our economy; no partisan hack's opinion matters a.bout anything because everything they say is in support of their agenda.

Pedo 47 is selling a strong economy. Voters aren't buying it.

The economy is dead.
Goods are 20% more expensive.
The value of the dollar has fallen 11%.
The Trump administration has fired thousands of government employees.

So, question is, do they actually think this nonsense policy will work and the jobs market will improve? Or is it just a stall tactic until the next few months' worth of authoritarian power grabbing is complete then they won't have to bother lying anymore?

I guarantee that no matter how good or bad the job numbers and inemployment numbers, the new apparatchik in BLs will fudge them in favor of Trump. It has already been all but broadcasr.

Not a single Trumper has posted on this thread because they'd rather remain distracted by Charlie Kirk's death than acknowledge Trump has destroyed the American economy.

So when we're deep in the doom loop of stagflation later this year, will it then be Dotard's economy, or will Nutlick push those goalposts to next year? Nobody is building factories, nobody is onshoring because that won't relieve tariffs on inputs, and ICE raids facilities where where lawful workers are doing their jobs. So most corporations will wait it out and hope the next POTUS will be sane.

What is Nutlick going to say when the economy is even worse at the end of the year?
