Former President Donald Trump has warned that America’s economy is on track for a bigger disaster than a recession, with his remarks coming shortly before government statistics showed GDP printing negative for the second consecutive quarter, which is a rule-of-thumb definition for a recession.
Trump made the comments during an interview with Fox Business Network on Monday, saying that he was “very worried” about what was happening in the economy. He pointed out that while it was not technically a recession yet, he had seen warning signs of what could be ahead.
