As the economy faces a once-in-a-century recession, with more than 38 million people out of work, Trump is increasingly talking up a future recovery that probably won't materialize until after the November election. He's asking voters to look past the pain being felt across the nation and give him another four-year term on the promise of an economic comeback in 2021.
Its a transition to greatness, Trump says over and over, predicting a burgeoning economy come the fall. Youre going to see some great numbers in the fourth quarter, and youre going to end up doing a great year next year."
His chief economic adviser, Larry Kudlow, echoes the wait-until-next-year sentiment, holding out hope for a big bang 2021.
Trump has also pledged to release a Republican health care plan after the November polls close
despite having served more than three years in office without revealing the Trump healthcare plan.

(7,947 posts)I don't see what Kudlow sees, but then, I'm not sure I'd want to focus on Trump's big kiss-inviting azz.

(365 posts)2021 will be a good year as Biden and his administration will clean things up as the economy soars and we are no longer the laughingstock of the world.

(2,336 posts)There is no way the economy will recover anytime soon; millions will never return to their earlier jobs. Hundreds of thousands of small businesses will be forced to go bankrupt. Millions of vendors supplying all these failing businesses will also be in trouble. The trickle this time is up.
Sadly we must wait until Jan 20 to begin to do something about it and by then the die will have been cast
