Former treasury secretary Larry Summers warns that no economist without political agenda says Trump big ugly bill is good for US economy. Instead most economists view the bill as harmful and increasing risks of higher inflation, interest rates and recession. More debt and less investment in machinery, buildings, education and research could make economy less productive. Summers dismiss as nonsense white house claim of $11 trillion in deficit reduction from economic growth.
I have more faith in the expert economists than the fascists.

The FBI warned major US tech companies ahead of The Post’s first reports on Hunter Biden’s laptop in October 2020 that Russian agents were preparing a strikingly similar document dump.
Unreal !

Trump is lucky to inherit a strong economy from Biden. However positive trajectory is starting to show weaknesses. GDP contracted in the first quarter of 2025 in first quarterly decline in 3 years. Also US dollar has biggest decline in first half of year in over 50 years because of loss of confidence due to Trump's bad economic policies. If his tariffs are fully implemented, economists expect lower economic growth with higher inflation and unemployment in the future.

What likely gets more expensive from Trump’s massive tariff hikes
CNN -
Trump has said that tariffs won’t lead to higher prices. But the US economy seems to disagree: Inflation, which has remained fairly tame, is slowly creeping up because of tariffs.
Trump’s latest round of higher taxes on imports, which went into effect Thursday, will immediately make imported goods from impacted countries more expensive in the United States.
The new tariffs will probably raise prices on:
Electronics Clothing Shoes Alcohol Furniture Toys

Trump Tariffs are giving parents back-to-school sticker shock
New York —
Lisa Ward was startled at the prices on sneakers when she recently went back-to-school shopping for her twin boys.
“All of them were at least $10 or $20 more than last year. That pissed me off, but I didn’t have a choice,” said Ward, a finance professional who lives outside of Atlanta.
Jake Cohen, head of industry and insights at Klaviyo, told CNN the higher prices are an obvious consequence of trump's trade war.
“Trump tariffs have driven prices up! Brands are trying to create margin. The simplest way to do that is to raise prices,” Cohen said.

Not sure if they're buyer's remorse when it comes to next midterms. If majority of voters are again casting their ballots to Trump's party? This ideology prevails every other thing, just hard to comprehend, Fubah.
Can Dems retake one or two chambers in next midterms to check one party rule currently in our nation? We will see.

Nobel economist Paul Krugman warns that mass deportation can cause more economic barm than people realize. Illegal immigrants constitute 5% of US. workforce but are concentrated in some industries. For examples, construction, agriculture, senior care, meat packing and others which could be crippled by loss of workers. Americans would be worse off with higher inflation, unemployment and lower economic growth. Potentially worse than Trump tariffs.
