The elitist left is wishing for a recession before the next election. Stephanie Ruhle declares it “about time we get a recession.”
Many MSM talking heads have been excited about the prospect of a recession as Donald Trump is facing re-election in 2020.
MSNBC commentator Stephanie Ruhle defended recessions, declaring them “a normal part of economic activity.”

“A recession is OK. A recession is a normal part of economic activity. We see them upturns and downturn. A recession doesn’t mean it’s a crisis, but if you’re a sitting president, you don’t necessarily want a recession on your watch. You want people feeling good. But seeing that we have been in economic expansion for the better part of 10 years, it’s about time we get a recession. But the fact that the Fed has already cut rates to try to extend this economic expansion, you think that would breathe more life into it.”
Ruhle continued, “[J]ust remember: One of the reasons the economy has extended in positive growth for this long is the massive corporate tax cut that the president gave us a year and a half ago. He said that would result in GDP boom in business investment, three, four, five percent growth. We’re at 2.1%. That’s the average.”
“So when the president says this is the best economy ever, it’s not. And if we did face a recession, it would be normal and it would be OK,” she concluded.
Twitter chimed in:
The left is praying for Americans to suffer just so they can say, I told you so. Why does the left hate America so much?

The Democrats and their proxies in the #MSM have thrown everything but the kitchen sink at President Trump and all have failed miserably. We now have propagandists like @SRuhle embarrassing themselves because this is all they have left. The #ItMayHappenApproach #Trump2020
