He'll change his mind and praise Trump or off to the El Salvador
concentration prison for him and all dissenters who offend the leader.


Hurting the leader's feelings by saying bad things about him will soon carry
even stiffern punishment than rotting in a foreign prison.

Laffer is kind of a quack. Take his
prognostications only just SO seriously.

New 'AI' models that can keep track of a LOT
more data points MAY be a little better. Alas
you can only model economies just SO well because,
alas, HUMANS are involved. Too many butterflies,
too many keen on six impossible things before
breakfast.

Get it ?

Or is your horizon nothing but pissing on Trump ?

Laffer is kind of a quack.
And you're ok that the President of the United States is taking his
economic advice from this 'quack'?

Keep the basics and don't run way off game without careful study of
the path.

Let me know if he does anything worth more than a piss.

Laffer is kind of a quack.
He also advised Reagan.

This is a pretty important question since you brought up a "quack" who
just happens to be your one of your guy's economic advice "bestie".

"In 2018, Laffer wrote the book Trumponomics with conservative
economic commentator Stephen Moore, wherein they lauded the Trump
administration's economic policies.[19] In the book, Moore and Laffer
argue that the Trump administration's 2017 tax plan would raise growth
rates to as much as 6% and not increase budget deficits."
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arthur_Laffer#Politics>

I guess Mr Laffer of the "Laffer Curve" really *is* a quack.

So why do Republicans keep taking economic and tax advice from him?
