Awarding Krugman the Nobel Prize in economics was the indication that the Bamster was a shoo in for the Peace Prize.
Paul Krugman. Has there ever been anybody more wrong more often? This guy seriously needs to be committed.

You stole my punch line. And the answer to your query is NO, nobody is wrong more often than Paul Krugman.
So we should great Krugman predictions of trouble ahead for Trump as GOOD NEWS. I do. Coming from the almost always wrong Krugman.
Krugman repeats the falsehood that Russians hacked Podesta’s email. Podesta fell for a transparent phishing scheme that succeeded in exposing his email because he didn’t have a secure password.
He’s off the wall.
I think he’s becoming print journalism’s Keith Olbermann.

I watched the futures market closely in the overnight hours after Election Day. It was a beautiful thing. In the early hours after midnight, when Hillary! was building what seemed to be an insurmountable Electoral College lead (given the widespread belief in a Midwestern “blue wall”), the Dow futures plunged 700 points. Once Trump won Florida, Ohio, and North Carolina (states which the media expected to go for Hillary!), the Dow futures abruptly reversed and the Dow rose by 600 points the next day. This was a 1300 point turnaround in the space of 14 hours.
The American economy goes on a boom, democrats lose more senate seats in 2018, Trump gets re-elected, he and the republican governors defund the left into an obscure, regional party.
Quick, grab the tin foil and get chicken little on the phone...this is Yuge!
Which time zone are you in. I remember the futures market drop starting around 8 pm EST when the odds of Trump's win took a sudden climb.
How much of that was from panicky Asian and European traders? Once the American markets opened on the morning of the 9th the climb was well underway. I had hoped for a longer drop because I was ready to buy, buy, buy. But by the time I had a chance to, the crash was already done.
Eastern Time Zone. You are correct that the Dow futures were down substantially before midnight EDT. They were down about 700 points until Trump ran the table with Florida, Ohio, and North Carolina. When Pennsylvania was called from Trump, the futures began their turnaround, before the “blue wall” for Hillary! collapsed. By 2:30 am, when Fox and a few other networks began saying a Trump victory was likely, the futures were in a steep rise, turning dramatically positive.
Krugman needs to be fitted with a new jacket with the sleeves in the back. For his own safety.
Krugman has this narrative written already about anyone registered as a Republican - he just tinkers around the edges with the “main idea” of the narrative to make the same point - any Republican is out of control / apocalypse now, etc. If Hillary Clinton could have been cloned with everything being identical except her voter registration being changed to Republican, that Hillary Clinton would have been cast by him as being totally nuts, etc. That is how far removed from any sort of reality he is.
Yes, it was the uncertainty, not the prospect of Trump winning that were causing them to drop - they thought maybe the election would be undecided and drug out, but it didn’t end up being even close.
Paul Krugman may be correct about the peril of the U.S. economy because of the Obama Administration. However, trying to tie Donald to a Russian conspiracy against America’s economic interests is L.S.D. thinking. A strong U.S. economy is good for the entire world.
Maybe Krugman can sign up for the one way trip to Mars. He belongs on another planet.
Obama’s house of cards is about to fall down, and they have to lay the groundwork for the “Trump’s fault” narrative.
Not even suicide can ease krugman’s bitter effin’ pain.
Time to start Photoshopping clown noses on these idiots.
And Krugman has an apoplectic fit.
Remember the Maine
Where was Krug the Drug when the Russians paid Bill Clinton $500K for a bs speech.
Down payment for Uranium One
