One thought on “Nation’s economy shrank 0.3% in first quarter as trade wars disrupted business

  1. Trump’s policies have been an act of domestic terrorism to the economy. But no one around him will say it out loud because Dear Leader can’t bear to have his feelings hurt, much less point out his ideas were the primary cause, so instead we will hear about it’s someone, anyone else’s fault but Trump’s.

    Bidenomics has gone from an insult to something people long for in just 100 days. And as seen on the Internet, William Henry Harrison had a better first 100 days and he spent 70 of them dead.
