I give it even better odds it will be a depression.

I think we are heading for a moderate deflationary depression.

The velocity of money is going drop very significantly.

Trump knows he can't get prices down so now he has this excuse. There will always be an excuse. He's even blaming tariffs on past presidents because THEY didn't do it during their time in the office

say we weren’t warned last year by economists. Several times they said if he puts tariffs on multiple countries, we would be in a recession by summer. My feeling is it might be by the end of this spring.
