    Up until recently, I always scoffed at presidents running on “the economy” due to the classical wisdom that presidential policies are a small drop in the bucket in the overall economic picture and that the influence they do have typically isn’t felt until after they’ve left office.

    Trump proved me wrong on this one. He’s speedrunning a recession.
