Trump The Economic Genius

Lemme just say if President Bernie Sanders had unilaterally imposed, by executive fiat, hundreds of billions of new taxes, personally browbeat executives about job cuts and investments and then fired the head of BLS, the Chamber of Commerce and the business orgs would not be sitting idly by.

Imagine if Clinton, Obama or Biden tried any of that? Hell, I think they would have had a meltdown if Bush had done it. But Trump? He’s a magic man for whom there are never any consequences for any stupid, ill-informed thing he does so why bother? Everything will be ok for Trump and, therefore, will be ok for everyone.

I honestly think that’s part of their rationale. They think that his total imperviousness to accountability means that nothing bad can happen while he is president. It seems unlikely but then he staged a violent coup attempt and stole classified documents in boxes full of garbage and stored them in the toilet yet was re-elected so anything is possible.
