NEW 🧵 A quick thread of charts showing how Trump’s economic agenda is going so far: 1) US consumers are reacting very very negatively. These are the worst ratings for any US government’s economic policy since records began.

Oh only 1368 days to go of this mess. If we are lucky. He’s worse than Covid, he’s the biblical pestilence. If I believed Jesus I’d say he’s the Antichrist just how the Bible described

Yeah. Why would term 2 be different? Everything he promised to do in the campaign was going to be a disaster. Tariffs done indiscriminately are bad. But the media didn’t even push him to say it’s a tax on Americans!

I'm sure he thinks returning the economy and markets to the state they were in during his last administration is a great thing. In two days he made everything that took place over the last four years vanish into thin air. Quite an accomplishment really.😏

Little nitpick: the same impact on economic uncertainty as a global pandemic*with Trump at the helm*. He basically managed to recreate the COVID economic anxiety and confusion even without any actual pandemic going on. It would be impressive if it wasn't so incredibly stupid.

Actually if I'm reading the chart right he's having a *worse* impact on it. And no doubt it's gonna keep trending in bad directions because Mango Mussolini just cant stop being stupid.

3) That was just the US version. What’s particularly impressive is that he’s managed this on a global scale. Starting to get the feeling that “Trump” annotation is going to be the chart equivalent of a layer of volcanic ash in the fossil record.

Motion to rename Iridium “Trumpium” in his honor. He’d be so excited to have an element named after him he wouldn’t even realize it’s the signature we look for in global mass extinctions. Alternative: name eighth row elements after him, since they are so unstable they self-annihilate in seconds.
