President Trump sat down for an extensive interview with NBC Meet The Pressโ Kristen Welker on 05/04/25. As expected the interview covered all the major topics of the dayโeconomy, immigration, military, foreign affairs, and in typical Trump fashion, even some humorous moments. Hey, heโs not a tv ratings magnet for nothing.๐๐คทโโ๏ธ
One of the most humorous moments for me, came when host Kristen Welker asked him when problems in the economy can be attributed to his actionsโostensibly referring to the damage the tariffs are doing to the economy. President Trump responded by saying that when the economy does good, he should get the credit, and when it struggles, his predecessor Biden should bare the blame.๐
It will be interesting to see how this position holds, as the effects of tariffs become visibly evident from the empty store shelves. Will MAGA blame the empty shelves on Bidenโs economic policies? Hmm, as Trump famously says, โWeโll see what happens.โ
