Dream on
When quantitative tightening takes the place of quantitative easing
The market will crash and Don the Con will be looking for someone to blame
He and the Trumplicans will have controlled all branches of government for at least two of the previous years and a majority for four.
He already increased the debt in an expansion, what is he going to do in a contraction
Declare bankruptcy?
He has no idea what he is doing, why do you think Haley bailed?
Because the next years would help her political career?
Or she’s better off to disassociate herself now?

We will see PeteF. But you are another lemming praying for failure. Think about that.

And btw,who was the last president to not increase the debt during expansion?

And how did he do it? Do you remember? Did he do it by embracing liberal economics? Or did he do it by signing Newt Gingrich's budget?

Are you claiming that Newt was responsible for later collapse of the economy, housing bubble etc.
Did you forget the "largest" tax increase in history signed by Clinton in his first year?
The dot com bubble, booming stock market along with a surge in capital gains taxes paid

I said that Newt Gingrich crafted the budget, which Bill Clinton signed, which most people say helped the economy soar for a decade. You are, of course, free to disagree.

As to the housing bubble? Blame on both sides. The law that allowed banks to get into the business of selling fishy derivatives was crafted by a republican congress and signed by Bill Clinton. And I know that liberals like yourself don't like this notion, but we also did a lot to bring it upon ourselves. Too many of us bought houses we couldn't afford. It's not the governments job to be our personal financial advisors.

"Did you forget the "largest" tax increase in history signed by Clinton in his first year?"

no, I remember it. I also remember it failed to help the economy, so he eventually teamed up with Gingrich.

"a surge in capital gains taxes paid"

Aha!! Correct!! More capital gains taxes were paid!! But that was AFTER capital gains tax rates were cut. Clinton lowered capital gains tax rates, and then capital gains tax revenue collected, increased.

Boy, you just can't process anything that doesn't support pure liberalism, can you?

He didn't do it. The debt increased under Clinton. Maybe Pete is mixing the deficit with the debt.

I can guarantee you that a contraction is coming
Cohn and Kudlow have been doing everything possible to delay it beyond 2019
Maybe listen to Ray Dalio talk about markets debt and politics instead of idiot politicians

You have information on why she resigned? Because I didn't see anything. You are so well informed...
