Sixteen Nobel Prize-Winning Economists Warn a Second Trump Term Would ‘Reignite' Inflation
2024-06-25
Always listen to the 'experts'!
[CNBC] - Sixteen Nobel Prize-winning economists signed a joint letter Tuesday warning of what they see as economic risks if former President Donald Trump were to serve a second term, including reheated inflation.

"While each of us has different views on the particulars of various economic policies, we all agree that Joe Biden’s economic agenda is vastly superior to Donald Trump’s," the economists wrote. Axios was first to report the letter.

"There is rightly a worry that Donald Trump will reignite this inflation, with his fiscally irresponsible budgets," wrote the group of politically progressive academics.

Given the current sorry state of the US economy, prominently featuring the 'fiscally irresponsible budgets' they bemoan when it may / might be done by a Republican, there's no reason to believe this complete and utter dishonest piece of shit article is anything other than an appeal to authority.

#9  Economics and astrology have a lot in common - except astrologists have a better success record.

#1  The Mendoza Line for experts weighing in on Presidential issues is 51. Anything under 51 experts means it is bush league.
