Looks like Apollo is calling a recession for Summer 2025. The Trump crew is already trying to blame Biden, but that's 100% horseshit. From what I gather this is unlikely to be reversible so brace yourself in whichever ways you can. There are suggestions this one may be worse than 2008.

"The early reviews are in: Trump 2 is a box office disaster.

Trump has now matched his own record as the only president in modern history to post net negative approval ratings just 100 days into a term."
