I gather Trump doesn't like early estimates that may need revision. He prefers total ignorance.

Super sane (& smart) Donald: “that’s bad, right? And..it says I have done a bad thing and trashed the economy, right? Whelp…I guess I better resign as president since I’m so fucking bad at my job.”

Where exactly does he expect job growth to come from after gutting good government organizations and jobs and creating chaos with tariffs?

If I got fired for telling the truth, I would laugh in trumps face as I went out the door and say “ the truth hurts doesn’t it, you old bag of shit”! We are definitely a banana republic now! The government that can’t tell the truth will resort to anything to keep the people in the dark!

Like ALL autocrats, he needs liars, thieves, & cheats, who will cook the books to keep him looking like he's doing well. He's not. He's a failure. From hereon in, it's all about staying in power.. & he'll do whatever necessary, like point submarines at Russia, to distract from sinking polls.

Now data cannot be trusted. The anti-intellectualism of the Trump administration harks back to the days of burning witches. Even evidence-backed criticism of Trump is deemed heretical.

Responding to bad economic data by "blaming the messenger" undermines the transparency and accountability that are essential to sound governance. A leader's true power lies in confronting reality, not in controlling narratives or institutions. Trump is a piece of shit!

Who is Allen Weisselberg the new messenger Trump hired? Allen Howard Weisselberg is a former longtime finance loyalist and con at the Trump Organization. He was convicted of tax fraud and perjury, and served prison time for lying under oath during the Trump Organization civil fraud trial.

I blame them for ALL of this. It was THEIR job to protect us from a wannabe dictator.. Instead, they licked their lips and joined him. Incredibly detestable people. Every last one of them.

It looks like being compromised by the Russian leader who helped him into the White House could be something too ;-)
