Economy Halfway to a recession- US GDP shrinks by .3% in Q1

art of the deal!

First page of this thread is a great example of why it's hilarious some people think Sherdog leans right.

This isn't an accurate sample: 1) the righties on here are humiliated by the Trump numbers and Trump economy, so they don't want to contribute here; and 2) the right wing echo chamber hasn't told them the party line yet so, they don't know how to respond.

Nobody posting on these boards is old enough to remember a worse start to a Presidency, economically.

You have to wonder if there are any sane republicans left in congress that are willing to step up and strip his ability to levy tariffs before everything comes crashing down. If we do end up in a recession with bare shelves due to no imports, you have to think republicans are going to get absolutely slaughtered in the next election cycle.

Don't make that assumption. Never, ever underestimate the ability for people to vote against their own best interests. I don't want to assume your age but remember in 2008 during The Great Recession and after the War with Iraq for 7 years at that point? All of that and when the Presidential elections came around 45% of the country still voted for the McCain/Palin ticket. The last time I remember seeing an odd map (especially for a Presidential campaign) was 1976 when California voted Repub and Texas voted Dem.

All of them. Lotta collateral damage as well.

Not much you can do but play the fiddle and watch it burn when your choices in an election are Donald Trump and kamala Harris.

We have to blame the democrats those bastards!

They are too scared to speak up against daddy Trump

The Clown Administration LOL

Is this where you mention trannies for the 30th time today because everyone else can't stop talking about them?

31st. I love trans people bro.

Me too!

If it's good news, then why are you blaming Biden for it?

 

[Rational Poster]

lmao

You were predicting a recession in 2023 IIRC so forgive me if I take your claims with a grain of salt.

I mean, we had one in 2022 so I wasn’t far off

 

[Misfit23]

Worth it to own the libs?

 

[BEAST]

0.3%? That's nothing. Like a few hundred bucks?

 

[Cantalope]

Only thing Trump is good at is blaming everyone else for his fuck ups.

Now let's see what some of these people lighting their hair on fire thought in 2022...

You were though, you couldn't have been more far off and yet here you are without an ounce of humility over any of it.

I think it’s weird why people worry if a karate forum leans one way or another politically

I'd be so tempted to ask something like, "Some families are saying they cannot afford bread. Do you think cake is a viable alternative?", to this fucking idiot.

I’ve correctly called 12 of the last 3 recessions.

What a shitty response that is. Imagine saying stores will have a 94% reduction in sales and that it’s a good thing.
