THE TRUMP ECONOMY SLUMP

THE TRUMP SLUMP

By: Derek Varsalona

President Trump is heading into Christmas with a lump of coal in his stocking.  He is riding the Trump Slump as of right now, and things are not looking pretty for him.  

The current economic downturn was first created by President Biden, and his successor, President Trump, is not doing any better. America would be doing better with a former businessman in office, who was not a career politician.  I was wrong, and I will admit that.  The nation is doing better under President Trump than it is doing under President Biden.

President Trump is polling at 39%.  But that does not matter to his loyal supporters, whom, by now, my readers know I am definitely one of.  President Trump is not dead in the water.  There is time to rebound from this mess.

The best present President Trump can give America is another tax cut that does not tax the rich and makes the poor pay for the taxes.  The fact is, the Democrats have already taxed their own base the poo,r with inflation.  Inflation is a tax on the poor.  With inflation, the rich just deal with the consequences, while the poor suffer and starve.  As always commentsare accepted.
