Donald Trump

Independent, UK -   President Donald Trump on Wednesday launched into a bizarre attack on Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer — the highest-ranking Jewish person in the American government — by inexplicably claiming that the New York Democrat was no longer Jewish during a marathon media availability alongside Irish Taoiseach Micheal Martin. 

Bloomberg - s Donald Trump took the oath of office on Jan. 20, he was flanked by some of the world’s wealthiest people. The billionaires present that day — including Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos and Mark Zuckerberg — had never been richer, flush with big gains from frothy stock markets. Seven weeks later, it’s a different story. The start of Trump’s second term has delivered a stunning reversal for many of those billionaires sitting behind Trump in the Capitol Rotunda, with five having lost a combined $209 billion in wealth, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index.

Occupy Democrats - The conservative Wall Street Journal enrages MAGA world by warning that we are crashing straight into a full-blown "Trump recession" thanks to his disastrous tariffs. When a Republican president loses the WSJ you know things are getting bad... "Recession fears are roiling markets, as tech stocks and the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell sharply again on Monday. Stock prices have been richly valued for some time, and this may be merely a market correction. But there are also signs of a slowing economy that should have the Trump Administration on alert," the Journal's editorial board wrote in a piece entitled "Will There Be a Trump Recession?" The board went on to criticize Trump, saying that he "didn’t help the mood" over the weekend when he refused to rule out the possibility of an economic slowdown and said instead that "there is a period of transition, because what we’re doing is very big." What exactly Trump hopes to gain from his harebrained tariffs — beyond some nebulous demands about immigration and fentanyl smuggling — is still unclear. "Mr. Trump was right to note that a President shouldn’t be preoccupied with short-term investor reactions to economic policies that will boost long-term growth. But there are flashing signs that the U.S. economy is slowing," the Journal wrote. Specifically, the right-wing newspaper pointed to recent disappointing jobs reports, the escalating trade wars with our close allies Canada and Mexico, as well as the general chaos and uncertainty caused by this administration. The board also cited specific instances where the tariffs are crushing businesses. One transportation equipment manufacturer stated that "customers are pausing on new orders as a result of uncertainty regarding tariffs."
