Trump Calls On the New York Times to Fire Paul Krugman

President Trump and Paul Krugman

Two economic ignoramuses go at it:

Paul Krugman is a lightweight thinker who doesn’t have a clue. Caused huge economic damage to his follower’s pocketbooks. He, and others, should be fired by @nytimes! https://t.co/1K5AtQbmrp

I usually ignore Twitter trolls, but it’s kind of amazing how much rent-free space I seem to occupy in Trump’s head. Shouldn’t he be focused on threatening Adam Schiff?

Of course, Trump is correct, Krugman is an economic lightweight, but Krugman is correct in pointing out that Trump holds idiotic mercantilist trade views.
