Why a Former Obama Economist Just Offered the Biden 2020 Campaign a Very Stark Warning

...We’re about to experience a massive economic boom, folks. And it will occur in the key months prior to Election Day. It’s a V-shaped recovery. And this isn’t just the Trump economic team making these projections. Former Obama economist Jason Furman has gone on record to declare, “We are about to see the best economic data we’ve seen in the history of this country.”

This has reportedly sent his former colleagues in the Obama administration into panic mode. The concerns among Democrats are high. With Donald Trump handily beating Sleepy Joe Biden on handling the economy and besting him in battleground states, this is an election-killer. The fact that Democrats want to extend these stay-at-home orders absence of evidence or justification only makes this more of a death blow to Democrats, as voters will correctly see them as being the biggest obstacles to them getting back to their jobs. The reason will be painfully transparent: they want to prolong economic turmoil to increase their odds of winning an election. Well, that won’t happen when people can see you telegraphing the easily decipherable political play here...

What a surprise it is to learn that an Obama advisor could be right about something!

We are seeing the hand of providence here. Every single line of attack has boomeranged back on the Democrats.
Thank God for Trump.
and thank God there is still a faithful remnant of praying Christians to stay the Hand of Judgement.

It’s amazing how no matter the situation, the only hope for Democrats is disaster for America.

We don’t need that kind of political party.

I think it is too early to call for a V-Shape recovery.

I am under the impression a lot of the DOW movement today was from Moderna’s vaccine announcement earlier today. Monderna’s stock started falling at the end of the session. This happen with another vaccine company before then the failed the next day. The stock market is still moving on emotions.

What would any former Obama economic advisor know about anything? Practically nothing, but in this case, a 9 yr old could predict this.

Obama was an incompetent, irresponsible, partisan shithead dealing dirty politics off the bottom of the deck. That's all he knew how to do, and that's all his monkeys and his hyper partisan, sycophant media ever did either. They couldn't care less if they destroyed America as long as their party got all the power.

They need to be ground into dust now.

this was a message to Senile Joe’s handlers to get him out of the basement and back to the campaign trail.

“The stock market is still moving on emotions.”

The market always moves on emotions. That’s the same criteria for how people vote.

If the market moved on fundamentals, we’d be screwed. The endemic, long term fundamentals are not good. Not good at all.

For those who have lost their jobs or businesses permanently, remember who to vote for in November.

Burisma Bagman Biden talking smack.

Hold the fire until their convention is over. Trump will have the best ever acceptance speech, one hanging curve after another.

The dems would gladly force everyone into poverty and misery just so they can get into power.

a death blow to Democrats

I can't describe the feeling that sweeps through me at that phrase, other than to say it's like chugging hot chocolate with Bailey's Irish Cream on an empty stomach. With whipped cream.

On July 1, fedgov will report lower economic activity for the second consecutive quarter. This will mark the US economy as in an official recession. EVERY media story from July 1 through Sept 30 will be about the terrible “Trump recession” and how we won’t be able to recover.

This prediction about the “V” recovery is exactly what they don’t want . . . . on Oct 1 news about the rebound boom. Trump will rightly blame the recession on the Wuhan flu and the eneMedia will angrily bluster.
