Did you see Krugman's reaction?

This wasn't part of the plan, that's why his brain short-circuited and he started sputtering about the agency behind these numbers being infiltrated by Trump yes-men. He didn't know any other way to handle the situation and his fried, tentacle-porn-addled mind sputtered out the first half-baked shit it could find as a response.

Sorry, globalist losers. You may win small, pyrrhic victories (relying on nothing less than coordinated government shutdowns of the global economy) from time to time, but you will never stump the Trump.
