The left-leaning Axios admitted Wednesday that it is so far, so good for President Donald Trump’s economy, despite the dire predictions regarding his tariff policy.

In an article titled “Why everything’s coming up Trump on the economy,” Axios chief economic correspondent Neil Irwin wrote, “Economic, market, and policy developments have been a wind at the president’s back in the last two months. The threatened downsides of an erratic policy process have not materialized, and economic naysayers — for the moment, at least — look silly.”

“Why is President Trump escalating a trade war that had seemed dormant, threatening high tariffs on major trading partners, imported copper, and pharmaceuticals? A better question is ‘why not’?” he asked.

Sometimes things are going so spectacularly well that even the moon bats can't deny it.
Everything that is supposed to be up, is up.
Everything that is supposed to be down is down.
 
Even the Market has settled down....Nice gains followed by legit profit taking, rinse and repeat, with a steady upward movement....The way it should work.

Now if Trump can just straighten-out the Fed and rein-in housing loan rates.

A lot of dem oldsters got poorer in March and April when they panic sold for no good reason other than their TDS....Meh, sucks to be them.
 
There are no indicators of any looming recession the TDS promoters keep sniveling about. Even Europe is anxious to renegotiate those ridiculous trade deals that have been screwing the U.S. for decades now.

Yep -

The spectacular run that President Trump has been on regarding every subject can't be denied by normal people.

You see it here -

Normal left-wing posters for the most part have given up.

We are left with the mentally Insane - Berg, DrP

And the self-important insane - CityGator and Mac.

I miss those days; lot of bargains out there then. Now even Ford is too high. Could have got it for a couple of bucks cheaper and getting 9% or so on the dividends.

You know, this piece is actually a pretty good reminder—not just of what’s happening, but of how we talk about what’s happening.

Yes, Axios ran the story. Yes, it said Trump’s recent economic numbers are surprisingly strong—though the actual source is Neil Irwin’s blog on Substack, not Axios’ front page or editorial board. Western Journal, true to form, padded the framing like it was a campaign ad. But the quote is real: “Economic, market, and policy developments have been a wind at the president’s back... naysayers look silly.

And that right there is the real takeaway.

Because in 2016, instead of running on policy, the Left ran on rage and ridicule. In 2020, they ran on fear. And now, in 2025, they’re trying to run on selective memory.

Here’s the cautionary bit: When you shout “fascist” for four years straight, and then inflation drops, wages rise, and markets rally under that same man… people remember. And when news outlets quietly admit the storm clouds didn’t deliver the apocalypse they forecasted, people remember that too.

So, to our friends on the Left, three tips:
  1. Pick your panic carefully. If everything is always on fire, nobody takes your smoke alarm seriously.
  2. Give credit where it’s due. It buys goodwill, and more importantly, it earns back trust.
  3. Talk to the voters you’ve written off. Not everyone who disagrees with you is a moon bat.
Because here’s the thing: If you keep writing the same headline—"The End Is Near"—and it keeps not ending… eventually, people stop reading. Or worse: they vote the other way, just to shut the alarm off.

But but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but




what about next week, next month, next year, 2026, or 2028? Surely by then the economy will tank.

And, don't forget, Orange man bad.

This is fantastic.

I am going to take a moment to do something now that I suspect very few on this site bother to do - at least while perusing the board.

I'm going to read the article! ;)

They should have listened to him..... He told them plainly.... Buy the dip.....

$100,000 on the downside of that dip would have turned into 350,000 on the upside just a few months later.

I loved the dip. I wish another one would hit, as I still have loose cash sitting around and don't want to buy in an up market.

The part that cracks me up is that he gave everyone a chance to make a bundle. And instead of being happy they're more miserable than ever.

That's because the dems panicked and are much poorer for their effort.
To be fair the market is always a Gamble but that particular tip off was a once in a hundred year opportunity....lol .... Both Trump and Bessent came right out and plainly said: " Buy the dip"..... I jumped all over that shit.

I only wish I could have seen ahead on the copper futures.
