‘We have the greatest economy we’ve ever had’: Pollyanna Donald Trump delusional about economy, dubs consumer misery ‘fake’

Trump insists the economy is doing great. You must be imagining that it's bad.

Donald Trump has figured out the secret to fixing the economy, and it turned out to be super simple! They’re calling it the “Nuh-uh” plan. Here’s how it works.

When he’s faced with data showing massive damage to the farming industry due to tariffs? “Nuh-uh!” How about grocery prices skyrocketing? “Nuh-uh!” Businesses collapsing from crippling import fees? You guessed it, “Nuh-uh!”

This, apparently, is the key to making America great again. Here it is in action, during a Trump interview with Fox News:

Trump was asked why you’re “anxious” about the economy. At first, he said you’re not, but if you are, you’re a delusional idiot who can’t accept that “We have the greatest economy we’ve ever had” and that “the economy is stronger than it’s ever been”.

If only that were true! The reality is that the economy is teetering on the cliff-edge of recession. Consumer and business sentiment has plummeted, inflation is creeping up, and Trump’s chaotic decisions are stifling investment and spending.

It’s… uh, not looking good

A poll last month found 75% of Americans reporting “soaring grocery prices,” with only 24% approving of Trump’s inflation handling. Only 34% approve of his cost-of-living policies, with 62% disapproving. But you don’t need me to tell you this, you go to the grocery store and you’ve winced as you’ve seen how little you’re getting for your money these days.

But if you think things are bad now, then hold on tight, as the economic rollercoaster may be about to plunge over the edge. Multiple economists have noted that the economy is currently supported by what looks like an “A.I. bubble”, with massive overinvestment and little financial return in A.I. tech.

Let’s face it, it can’t be good that graphics card manufacturer Nvidia is currently 16% of the entire US gross domestic product. If (and when) the A.I. bubble pops, it’s going to make the early 2000s dot-com crash look like a kid’s birthday party.

Don’t expect to see billionaires being evicted from their mansions over it, though, as usual, the person who’ll bear the economic misery generated by Trump’s disastrous and boneheaded economy is… you. But at this point, why not just stick your head in the sand and yell “nuh-uh” too? I mean, it’s not like you can do anything about what’s coming.
