Welcome to IWETHEY!

New PK's Twitter interview today.
https://twitter.com/paulkrugman/status/958762632105873414

In usual Twitter fashion, the reply is above the question, here:

Paul Krugman ‏Verified account @paulkrugman

Paul Krugman Retweeted Handelsblatt Global

I briefly let my political dismay overwhelm my economic models (I retracted in 3 days). The fact is that in normal times central bankers matter much more for the business cycle than politicians; for now, the Fed and the ECB are doing their jobs, and Trump doesn't matter much

Paul Krugman added,

Handelsblatt Global
Verified account

@HandelsblattGE

Our first question @paulkrugman, is: The global economy is flourishing and not even Trump has been able to derail this economic boom. You predicted a “huge recession and market crash”. Why have your predictions not come true? #HBGlobalDay #economics #recession #GFC

FWIW.

Cheers,
Scott.
New Key point in there: "I was wrong, and here's where I said so"
Find anyone who spent 8 years predicting Obama would destroy the economy ... or anyone saying rampant inflation is right around the corner ... who has ever said that.
