I'm sure any recession will be blamed on the Democrats and the mindless drones will believe the fairy tale.

Spanky von Dumbfuqsky Trump at the helm. Thanks Repukes. Thanks a whole bunch.
Don't invest money you can't afford to lose in the market. Although the market is up about 10% for the year.

Donny says he delayed tariffs because of concerns over Christmas shopping season

https://www.cnbc.com/2019/08/13/trum...ng-season.html

Wait... I thought China was paying the tariffs!? Donny keeps up the lie that China is paying, not American consumers. Such a buffoon.

Peter Navarro compares Wall Street Journal to a communist paper after its editorial board warns of a ‘Navarro Recession’

https://www.washingtonpost.com/busin...rro-recession/

Right. The WSJ, voice of the Repubes, run by the disgusting Murdoch family of Faux “News”, is a commie mouthpiece. Only the best people, eh Whell!? Lol.

Donny Panics, Rushes Into Xi’s Arms

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/trump...033846875.html

Quote:
It only took a small taste of what a U.S. recession might be like for President* Donald Trump to suggest that he wants a trade deal with China after all.

Ever sensitive to stock movements, the president* tried to calm the markets after the close. Abandoning his hawkish trade rhetoric, Trump extended an olive branch to Chinese President Xi Jinping in a series of tweets, calling him a “great leader” and a “good man.” He ended his posts with “Personal meeting?,” without specifying whether he was proposing a summit.

The question is how Xi will respond to Trump’s overture. Who’s more desperate for a trade deal right now?
Because he’s the world’s greatest negotiator!

A new report offers fresh evidence that Trump's trade-war tariffs are hurting the US — even though he says they're not

https://markets.businessinsider.com/...9-8-1028453869

More facts proving Donny’s an idiot.

Take it easy! Relax!
It is a condition of modern times: People reaching for the extreme, jumping into non sequitur.

Additionally putting Putin in context - you are a Putin lover. It is used in attempts to silence critics.

Here once more but in a nutshell: Putin - just a competent bureaucrat, but in the larger scheme of things is small fry compare to a person like Xi.
