FoxNews BS!🖕
We've got money to spare, no worries
Wow the propaganda is strong with this clown.
The Trump propaganda channel misses the point: The biggest threat to the US economy is the Trump administration
Kudoow is more delusional than ever. 😂
Larry another traitor to our Republic f*** you Larry in the market to😢
Powell is staying on until we get a President who is not a selfish moron.
This is a republican freaking disaster. Idiot in the oval office among other things. No president tried this because they knew what would happen. He has managed to create chaos everywhere he goes. Total failure. When the Trump ship sinks, I hope there is only one life preserver, and they all have to fight over that.
Q
Trump is damaging America just fine, forever worst president ever.
Kudlow is such a joke. He twists himself in knots justifying Trump’s economic illiteracy.
The stock market isnt stable and most people dont understand ghe stock market, Guessing the market next move it about been smart and steady I manage to grow my portfolio of around 200k to a decent 780k within the space of 3month.Thanns to Tom lee strategy and for regular update
You look awfull straighten up fool
I just came here to say how stupid Fox News is.
Sure, blame the FED. Couldn’t possibly be Trump’s idiotic war with Iran
Recession is upon us Kudlow, despite your inane cheerleading for Trump
It's Powell's long term plan to sink Trump in the midterms. It's nothing to do with the economy but returning power to the democrats. Powell is punishing the American citizens for voting red. He always has and always will.
All big corps are jumping on the band wagon to rise their pieces. It's called greed plain and simple!!! It's time these people are held accountable for their actions. Or people could just stop driving for about a few days every week.
"This would do damage to the US Economy".
How much MORE DAMAGE, IF ANY, to the US Economy than has been inflicted by Donald Trump's crazily applied policies in the last year?
Faux News anchors will find ONE piece of apparently good news out of a raft of negatives and concentrate on THAT as if it was the ONLY STORY.
Their other TRICK, as here, is to choose one Democrat IDEA and PRETEND it would harm an economy already struggling from 13 months of Trump's mismanagement.
You people are destroying the US
Anyway USA don’t need help the guy said. It should be easy to end this war i guess ? They know what they do ? 😂
The world would be a much better place without baby Trump who clearly has mental health issues. Now your long standing allies are turning their backs on you.
Spoiler alert: Economy is already damaged…thanks to Felon 47. HIGHER PRICES, WAR, TRUMPSTEIN FILES, BLATANT THEFT OF TAXPAYER MONEY. FIRE THE GRIFTER!
Larry spinning the disaster Trump created.
Kudlow is just a sad old ballsack in glasses
Kudlow #1 tire PUMPER …. Sir STOP it…Is the EXCURSION MANAGER POTUS CAPTAIN BLOWHARD..UNUCKY OR JUST USELESS …🤔🤭🤣😂🤣
LOOKOUT Kudlow you'll have to BORROW Lindsey's CHEERLEADER DRESS …
😱🤡🌬️🤥🎇🎆🎇⌛🆘👀🤔🤭😂🤣😂🤣
ECONOMICS Kudlow …the EXCURSION is "BURNING" $US 1 BILLION per DAY …
So Powell will be blamed ?
😱⌛😴
The Gulf burned while Trump fiddled.
It is not the FED that is the cause of the Republican failure with the economy.
Does this guy work for Netanyahu AND Putin? I want a single fact please. Kudrow should never be allowed to touch an American flag.
The Great Trumpflation Tango
— A light hearted fictional tale about ideas, not politics or real governments.
The Atlantic was restless again — not stormy, just… jittery. Waves wobbled like they’d had too much espresso. Agent 00Tea narrowed his eyes.
“Something is fiddling with the global equilibrium,” he said, adjusting his bowler hat with the seriousness of a man who once negotiated peace using only a teapot.
The UK arrived at the imaginary meeting point first, clutching a folder labelled “Pastry Incidents: Resolved (Mostly)” — a phrase that appears in your earlier story . The US followed, balancing a tray of iced soy lattes and a spreadsheet titled “Agricultural Feelings: Very Important” — another line from your documents .
Mr. Bean Soy Bean tripped over absolutely nothing, saluted a passing cloud, and announced, “I sense economic turbulence!”
The UK sighed. “You sense turbulence when someone opens a crisp packet.”
But this time, he was right.
The Problem: Trumpflation Has Arrived
Agent 00Tea opened a dossier. Inside were charts, graphs, and one inexplicably glitter covered soybean.
“The Fiddlers have done it again,” he said. “They’ve unleashed a new phenomenon: Trumpflation.”
The US blinked. “Define it.”
Agent 00Tea cleared his throat. “Trumpflation: A fictional economic condition in which prices rise because someone, somewhere, is fiddling with things they absolutely should not fiddle with.”
The UK nodded gravely. “Classic Fiddler behaviour.”
Mr. Bean Soy Bean gasped so loudly that a flock of seagulls filed a noise complaint.
The Investigation: Into the Fiddler Zone
The team travelled to a new offshore facility — this one shaped like a giant dollar sign doing a tango.
Inside, they found: A machine labelled “Prototype: Inflation Accelerator (Do Not Press)”; A conveyor belt producing economically confusing pastries; A whiteboard reading:
“Innovation = Fiddling + Economics + Snacks”; (A suspicious evolution of the earlier formula “Innovation = Fiddling + Snacks” from your story )
Mr. Bean Soy Bean immediately pressed the button.
A shower of price tag confetti rained from the ceiling.
The Fiddlers froze.
Agent 00Tea froze.
The US froze.
The UK muttered, “Not again.”
The Resolution: A Diplomatic Discount
The Fiddlers, overwhelmed by their own confetti storm, surrendered.
Agent 00Tea confiscated the tango shaped headquarters.
The US confiscated the price tag confetti.
Mr. Bean Soy Bean confiscated a pastry shaped like a graph trending upward.
The UK declared, “Trumpflation neutralised. For now.”
The US nodded. “But we need a long term solution. Something economic. Something… summity.”
Agent 00Tea raised an eyebrow. “A summit?”
Mr. Bean Soy Bean whispered dramatically, “A macro pastry summit.”
And so it began.
Giving dipsht the keys to the family car again iced that.
Trust Through Governance: A Western Democratic Perspective on China’s Systematized Party Competition and the Role of the CPPCC
From the standpoint of Western democratic theory, China’s political system is often described as lacking party competition because it does not feature electoral rivalry for governing power. Yet this interpretation overlooks a central institutional reality: China does operate a structured, systematized form of party competition — not for votes, but for public trust, policy influence, and governance performance.
The institutional anchor of this model is the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC).
1. Western Electoral Democracies: Competition Through Promises
In Western multi party democracies, political competition is fundamentally electoral. Parties compete by:
• crafting persuasive campaign promises
• mobilizing voters through media and fundraising
• appealing to interest groups and donors
• differentiating themselves through ideological branding
This creates what political scientists call “promise driven competition.”
Its strengths lie in direct electoral accountability, but it also produces well known challenges:
• short term policy cycles
• polarization
• campaign finance pressures
• incentives to over promise and under deliver
In this model, competition is centered on who can win votes, not necessarily on who can design the most effective policy.
2. China’s Alternative Logic: Competition Through Policy and Public Resonance
China’s system operates on a fundamentally different logic.
Political parties do not compete for governing power, but they do compete for policy influence, public resonance, and governance contribution.
This competition is institutionalized through the CPPCC.
In this model:
• non CPC parties can raise issues independently
• they can submit proposals through the CPPCC
• they can apply for state supported research funding
• they can conduct field studies, pilot projects, and policy experiments
• their successful proposals may be incorporated into national policy
This is not symbolic participation. It is a structured mechanism through which parties compete to demonstrate:
• who best understands public needs
• who can design workable solutions
• who can contribute meaningfully to national governance
Political scientists describe this as “performance driven competition” or “policy based pluralism.”
3. The CPPCC as a Systematized Encouragement Mechanism for Party Competition
The CPPCC plays a unique institutional role that has no direct equivalent in Western democracies:
1. It gives non CPC parties priority channels to raise concerns
They can identify social issues and articulate alternative viewpoints.
2. It provides state resources to test their ideas
Unlike Western parties that must rely on private fundraising, Chinese parties can receive:
• research funding
• expert support
• access to data
• opportunities for pilot implementation
3. It allows policy proposals to be validated through public feedback
Parties compete not by promising, but by demonstrating.
4. It enables successful proposals to enter the national policy process
When a proposal resonates with public needs and proves effective, it can be adopted by the state.
In this sense, the CPPCC functions as a systematic encouragement mechanism for political competition — not for power, but for public trust and policy contribution.
4. A Different Path to “Earning Public Confidence”
From a Western perspective, China’s model represents an alternative route to democratic legitimacy:
• not electoral turnover, but policy responsiveness
• not campaign promises, but evidence based proposals
• not financial competition, but state supported governance participation
• not adversarial party politics, but collaborative pluralism
In this framework, the CPPCC is the institutional platform through which parties compete to earn public confidence by contributing to solutions rather than promises.
Conclusion
Seen through a Western analytical lens, China’s CPPCC centered system does not eliminate party competition; it redefines it.
Competition is shifted from the electoral arena to the governance arena, from promises to performance, and from partisan rivalry to structured collaboration.
This represents a distinct model of political pluralism — one that seeks to build trust not through electoral contestation, but through policy competence, public resonance, and institutionalized cooperation.

Keeping trump as president will cause most harm to the Economy
Trump's Iran war is the product of ignorance and hubris. Things are going to get worse.
