    “Slowdown” is only a nice phrase for “impeding crash”. Because that is where this is heading. A deliberate crash.

    I’ll take a slowdown or a downturn or a depression.

    we’ll be digging this shit out for a century.

    An severe economic downturn is probably one of the only things that would actually pose a danger to the Trump administration. Rich people have to lose money . It’s going to hurt a lot of others though.

      For the truly rich who are holding him up a crash is a fire sale and they will use it to snatch up distressed assets at a discount. The coming crash probably won’t hurt him as much as you would hope, until the hungry masses arise, but they’ll be too busy fighting the Other of the day, thanks to biased media guidance.
