Forums - Politics - What economists think of Trump's financial plans

But this is all part of the plan. When Trump said he would make America great again he meant crashing the economy, make the population poor and turn them into slaves, and have them build a giant pyramid.

Markets went down after the Brexit vote as well, so typical panic reactions when the status quo is being seriously challenged. The world is not going to end though.

I woould like to point out that the pound is at a historical low.



Bet with PeH: 

I win if Arms sells over 700 000 units worldwide by the end of 2017.

Bet with WagnerPaiva:

 

I win if Emmanuel Macron wins the french presidential election May 7th 2017.

If he does that, then he might really save America :p.



In the wilderness we go alone with our new knowledge and strength.

We (and I mean the world, not just the US) are in for some dark times...

Can't read the full article. Could you copy paste it here (that is if you can)?

It's basically a letter saying that his economic policies will be terrible for the U.S.

Here's another source.

Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.

I can imagine him sweeping our debt under the carpet and make some dumb excuse to not pay any of it. Worked for his taxes, might as well try it on our country's deficit

Just gonna declare bankruptcy and the debt is gone.

As a proud American, I would just like to congratulate China for becoming the world's greatest superpower!
