It’s rare to have the NYT or any other legacy media lay down a marker this early in a presidency, but this morning they did.
Just call me “Swami” because I can see the future. The economy is going to boom. And then there will be a chorus of lefties saying it’s because of growth that Biden planted before he left office. It’s 100% guaranteed they will do this. When they do, whip out this NYT article. Because it’s unambiguously clear who they think is responsible for what’s to come — and they’ll wish you forgot they wrote this. They’ll probably go in and stealth edit the article or just outright delete it. They’ve done it before.
You can tell they believe the economy is headed off a cliff for two reasons right away: number one, because they call the tax cuts “expensive” — which tells you they’re mopey, wrong Keynesians, and two, the simple fact that they put down a marker at all! They’re supremely confident this economy is going to tank.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
Oh this is going to be fun!
