And that's different from the other 171 infected nations... how?

I would argue that Trump's exceptional economy (quantifiably the best economy in over 50 years) better allows the U.S. to endure the hardships of shutdown than other nations.

As I expressed earlier in the topic, I'm deeply concerned about not just the severe economic impact in the United States, but far more so the potential for a snowballing global economic collapse.



It’s just such a huge number. Even under best case scenarios this will have huge ramifications. I’ll just point out that most of the economic expansion happened under Obama’s last term and some of his first. Trump inherited a good economy and blew up the economy for not even much of a gain in GDP. His record now includes this.

Fair play!
