Trump said "I did not want to see economic catastrophe"?

In his remarks about the deal with Iran, he made this comment!

Well, hells bell? If he wasn’t president, we wouldn’t be in an economic catastrophe?

If he was the genius that he claims to be, we wouldn’t be in an economic catastrophe?

If he did not start two wars with Venezuela and Iran, we wouldn’t be in an economic catastrophe?

Only 2 years ago and 2 inches, we wouldn’t……..?

Just saying!

Oh the stable genius has the clarity of a 2 year and the mind of an imbecile!

about the Smoot-Hawley tariffs, which Hoover signed into law against the advice of his economic advisers, and which deepened the Depression because trading partners retaliated with tariffs of their own. Sound familiar?

He is blowing 2 trillion in debt a year while degrading just about every agency and building no new infrastructure.

Biden was left with a shitshow in 2021. The next president will likely face an even graver situation in 2029. Trump will be remembered as worse than Hoover. He makes Bush seem like a genius. He cannot escape the crapfeast he unleashed on this nation because he's a moron.
