which will hurt the market and economy, tra la. It's a clown show at the New York Times these days.

the economy really is.
A guy I know (union laborer) who has never been unemployed at all through the Biden years and often posts images of his extensive and expensive sneaker collection often posts Trump memes about the Biden economy. The last time he posted one of his sneaker images (an image of 8-10 pairs of brand new, rare New Balances) one of his friends replied "Too bad the economy is so bad!" The reply got twice as many likes and laughs as the post. He took the post down!
Hard to be down on the economy when you have thousands (literally, thousands) to spend on your sneaker head hobby.
