Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin denied that the U.S. is currently in a recession amid the coronavirus outbreak during an interview on Fox News Sunday morning.
Empty eyes, empty head, empty heart, empty soul.
Mnunchin added: “I would only call this a recession if a Democrat were president. Dear Leader can do no wrong, so we are in a YUUUGE economic expansion.”
Talk about walking around naked .
How many millions does Mnunchin think the Trump Organization will get out of the $2 Trillion?
My guess is financially 2020 will be the best year ever for Trump!
… “this isn’t the financial crisis that’s going to go on for years.”
“That financial crisis is still in the works.”
Tell that to the thousands/millions that have lost 20% of their investments in their retirement accounts. Not terribly relevant, indeed.
Phil Gramm - July 2008:
“You’ve heard of mental depression; this is a mental recession. … We have sort of become a nation of whiners."
Mnuchin: Recession ‘Not Terribly Relevant’
If I was worth 200 million dollars, recession would be the last thing on my mind. But since I am an older worker worth 200K, with a kid going to college next fall and another to follow in a couple years… the R-word is mighty relevant…
A saver and his money are soon parted.
The only thing relevant to these greedy pigs is how much they can transfer from the American people into their own coffers during this crisis, a crisis they are exacerbating by their intentional inaction.
he continued:
for smart investors, that is to say -‘insiders’ - it’s the opportunity of a lifetime.
If a recession isn’t terribly relevant, how does the Trump admin plan to address the plight of Americans who live paycheck to paycheck and the paycheck stops?? How long is a one-time payment of 1,200 bucks going to stretch?
Less than one Scaramucci?
Mnuchin: Recession ‘Not Terribly Relevant’
If one’s sole purpose is to deflect blame.
Had that purpose been to inform the population? Well…
With these guys the only answer is:
Next question.

Powerful.
When will we see it in a Democratic campaign commercial?
Well let’s have a look at those grades there my boy…
They have not yet begin to trash the economy. This is just the tryouts.
Only 20%?
This is the Trump Recession.
Repeat that.
Trump Recession.
Louder!
It is more than a technical question.
I can only hope that he is in the car with Trump and Melania when the partisans stop them.
