McKinley and Hoover's tariff taxes caused depressions so why would it not do it a 3rd time. Companies are failing. Layoffs are occurring. It happens during Bear Market. The closures and layoffs spiral out and cause more closures and layoffs.
The cherry on top is the drought conditions mud rain and dust storms. The removal of migrant farm workers. The fact that most of our food is from Canada, Central America and South America. The cutting of SNAP and stopping food from going to food banks has the makings man made famine. The delusional dementia addled old man says prices are down and that gas is 1.99/ gallon.
