And that's why stat ppl are being replaced. The actual numbers would shock America so we'll be lied to and told 2+2=5, up is down, empty streets mean business is booming, etc, etc. The dictator has no clothes, in other words.

He's never been unable to lie, but he's found a WHOLE NEW "power band" to accelerate his dishonesty as he fleeces the American people. We'll see what happens now that the TrumpTax went into effect: I wonder if there are still morons believing "tariffs bring 💰 INTO the country" when it's a SALES TAX🤷‍♂️

Traditionally the market crashes in October, so we have a few more weeks left to play make believe before the truth becomes undeniable.

I dread it, but I am relieved because I thought the TrumpTax would go into effect sooner and we'd crash by July. We lasted longer than I predicted, but the effects of his policies and capriciousness are already here and will only be exacerbated by the TrumpTax. I feel for my farmers: they'll be hurt

It's not just the tax. It's ppl afraid to go out bc they may be profiled. That's a big hit. And the tourism apocalypse is another huge hit. Thousands of public service employees lost jobs in DC. The places they use to spend $ will crash now, and ripple outward. All self inflicted damage. All of it.

My coworker worked in Vegas doing promotional stuff for years (moved here when his mom died unexpectedly to deal w/house, etc), and his buddies there are saying HORRIBLE stuff about the loss of tourists. Like they've "never seen anything like this before in their lifetimes." Layoffs. Closures. BAD!
