I’m puzzled - Trump claims the US economy is booming yet at the same time wants the Fed to slash interest rates and use other measures such as quantitative easing to boost the economy. Is he beginning to realise his tariff war is damaging the economy

@Dlrannie No. Trump doesnt do "realising". He does everyone else being wrong and it being their fault. As do his supporters. The problem with the US is, the Government, The Chinese, the Mexicans, the Weather, Black Footballers kneeling, The Arabs, (except the ones who have oil and buy arms) Women, Disabled people. The Media. Elizabeth Warren and any of his former friends or Allies who dare to disagree with him.

@whowasthatmaskedman How silly of me not to take all of that in to account. 😂😂

@Dlrannie He was like this before the tariff war began in earnest. What it is, is a short term mentality coupled with a lifetime in a boom/bust industry. Squeezing out what you can while the going is good is a strategy that starts to look tempting in that context.

@QuixoticSoul It’s a pity he can’t figure out that running a country is not the same as running a real estate business

@Dlrannie But it is. You dont think he is selling America up the river?

@whowasthatmaskedman didn’t he sell the rivers last year?
