    Jesus… This will directly and unequivocally shrink the economy. That money? It’s paid to businesses for services. He just fucked our GDP.

    And it’s going to disproportionately affect red states, because those are the states that receive the most federal grants.

      They want to kill off the little fish that need that money. Also, this is a death nail for most nonprofits. Nonprofit, is a dirty word to oligarchs. Why do good things for no personal gain?! Watch for profit large corporations snap up assets and market shares of services previously provided by nonprofits and charities.

          Just done it myself with deepseek. Fed in a list of the executive orders and got it to model scenarios and knock on effects.

          That’s worse case, if he manages to deport a significant % of immigrants, retains all funding freezes, doesn’t have anything knocked back in court.

          Just realised any tariffs that go into effect are not included in that estimate either.

          I didn’t reference it as a source you need to get a grip lol

          It’s as accurate as me roughly working it out would be.

            Buddy if you have even a napkin math model that can predict this with confidence, you’re going to win the nobel for economics.
