Haberman: Trump is afraid to reject the recession from a “front to wear it”
The New York Times political correspondent, Maggie Haberman, cleaned President Trump’s lack of concern about the possibility of stagnation, describing it as a “front”.
During the emergence of Friday evening on the “source” of the CNN, hosts, Kaylan Collins Haberman, asked whether she believed that Trump was not interested in how another sweeping tariff on the American economy.
Haberman replied: “I think this is the front he places.” “They got good news today in terms of front. Yes, the market numbers have recovered somewhat.”
She said, “You are right that he continues to say things about prices that are not compatible with reality,” referring to a post on the social truth, as Trump suggested that the prices “have decreased and everything is very low now.”
Haberman continued, “A group of responses, which are usually very praise for him, at the top of praise, said mainly:” It is not the place where I live, not where I live, and not where I live. “
Then the veteran journalist suggested that there was an end to the extent of Trump and made the voters to believe it.
“But now, he seems to believe himself,” Haberman said.
Its analysis comes after the data showed that the total of the local product (GDP) decreased during the first quarter of 2025 by 0.3 percent. Wall Street analysts warned that the country may head towards recession in light of the president’s trade war, which rocked the global trade order.
Trump, however, rejected concerns about economic uncertainty in the wake of the customs tariff.
“Well, as you know, as you say, some people say in Wall Street … well, tell you something else. Some people say in Wall Street that we will get the greatest economy in history. Why don’t you talk about them?” Trump said during an interview with “Meet The Press” from NBC, scheduled to be broadcast on Sunday.
When the host Christine Wilker was asked whether the recession might happen, the president said: “anything can happen, but I think we will get the greatest economy in the history of our country.”
Earlier this week, he also blamed former President Biden for turmoil in the stock market, and rejected the idea that fluctuations due to import taxes imposed on almost all global trade partners.
“This is the stock market in Biden, not Trump,” Trump said on Wednesday. “I did not take over until January 20.”
He added: “The definitions will start soon, and companies began moving to the United States of America with record numbers. Our country will flourish, but we have to get rid of the Biden.”
Despite the decline, nearly half of the adults in a recent survey said the current situation of the economy is Trump’s responsibility.
