Trump’s economic worldview is close to that of Adam Smith’s, i.e. “the tiny, almost invisible hand”.

Donnie needs to once again keep working on the economic word salad of the teleprompter glitch of the trickster King of the muddied stance of the claim of the not lengthy or memorable phone call of the hardening of the softening of the detail dodging of the walk-back of the flip-flop of the sarcasm of the stumble of the tongue of the obfuscation of the abbreviated language of what the loser liberal media poorly covered during the earpiece malfunction of his original, widely documented comments.

Sen. Clinton is a running a traditional campaign. Trump is a reality show. Nothing of what he says matters. Is it time to go off message and really take him on. I don’t know?

Trump didn’t offer up a projected cost for such a tax plan.

No shit, Sherlock. Donnie didn’t realize he would be talking to smart people who actually succeed in business without having to resort to multiple bankruptcies.

If Trump beats Clinton, it could wipe as much as $1 trillion from the US economy

A win for U.S. presidential candidate Trump could have grave implications for the world’s largest economy, according to Oxford Economics.

Even if the “economists” in the room won’t challenge his patently ridiculous claims, I hope and pray that HRC will if he tries to make the same claims during the debates. 25 million jobs??? where? how? 5% growth? how? when? specifics please…

Speaking at a Thursday meeting of the Economic Club of New York, Donald Trump
made some ambitious promises, vowing to grow the economy by at least 3.5
percent per year, create a staggering 25 million jobs, cut taxes, and
slash regulations while preserving entitlement programs.In
the address to the club and a “fireside chat” that followed, Trump
didn’t get any pushback on the policy proposals, but offered very few
details when he was pressed for specifics.
…
Specifics:
A chicken in every pot and a car in every garage (assuming, of course, that you have a pot and a garage).
If the GOP doesn’t disown this fraud then they really don’t believe their own holy platform that they have run on in every election in my near 70 year lifetime.

“Trump Rolls Out Word Salad Econ Policy To Room Full Of Economists”

Where in the article do you establish that he was spewing “word salad”? I don’t see any juicy quotes, short or lengthy, to show us how what he was saying was complete gibberish.

It’s true what they say. you learn something new every day. Today I learned that the Economic Club of New York is made up of a bunch of pathetic morons and/or spineless cowards.

Trump: “The macroeconomic externalities of global meta-consumption insure that econometrics provide a marginal yield curve of microeconomic supply-side proportionality, with potential growth and domestic per-capita production, given a revised forecast in the 3.5% range, R less than G, and a real interest rate on debt not exceeding the collection of underpants.”

GOP Establishment: “Harrumph!”
