Maher and Richard Engel

bill: More recently, at least one journalist openly sided with left-wing comedian Bill Maher who wants a recession to get rid of President Donald Trump, according to MSNBC. NBC's Richard Engel chimed in Short-term pain might be better than long-term destruction of the constitution, after Maher said I really do want a recession on HBO's Real Time with Bill Maher Aug. 9. Despite 3.7 percent near record-low unemployment, wage gains, confident consumers and growing economy, liberal journalists obsessed over recession every single day of June and July. A recession is generally considered two quarters or more of negative economic growth. That could have serious consequences if economist Mohamed El-Erian was correct when he warned we've got to be careful because we can talk ourselves into a recession. That hasn't stopped the media from pushing dark clouds and the likelihood of a recession coming soon, possibly even before the 2020 election. (news.financializer.com). As reported in the news.
