The new budget is going to hurt the economy massively. There are 4.5 trillion in tax cuts to high earners and corporations and 880 billion in cuts from “Energy and Commerce”.
DOGE has put in some massive cuts to research, but the cuts hit research hospitals hard and are going to result in a lot of loss of hospital jobs because of loss of overhead.
Tariffs will also hit the economy hard, especially tariffs on energy, where there’s little ability to domestic producers to eat cost increases.

“The golden age of America begins right now.” — President Donald Trump, during his inauguration speech.
We promised that, if elected, we would return America to “a golden age.” And by God, we did it. We delivered on that promise.
Admittedly, it’s not the golden age you were expecting—the one when stuff was affordable, employment was high, traditional industries were booming, weather patterns were still basically predictable, and a sense of national pride coursed through the healthy, fluoropolymer-free veins of every man, woman, and child in the land. If you were hoping for a golden age like that—a gilded era of health, wealth, and prosperity—we can’t really help you. But you can’t blame us for that. Because that’s not the golden age we were talking about.
You assumed. And that’s entirely on you.
