‘Great Depression Far Bigger & More Powerful Than 1929,’ Trump Warns

In light of the recent banking collapses and stock market calamity, President Trump warned that Joe Biden’s fiscal policies will lead to a new ‘Great Depression.’

This from welovetrump.com.

Trump wrote on Truth Social:

With what is happening to our economy, and with the proposals being made on the LARGEST AND DUMBEST TAX INCREASE IN THE HISTORY OF THE USA, TIMES FIVE, JOE BIDEN WILL GO DOWN AS THE HERBERT HOOVER OF THE MODERN AGE.

WE WILL HAVE A GREAT DEPRESSION FAR BIGGER AND MORE POWERFUL THAN THAT OF 1929.

AS PROOF, THE BANKS ARE ALREADY STARTING TO COLLAPSE!!!

Business Insider reported:

A Trump spokesman told Insider that ‘out of control [democrats communists/globalists] and the [Obiden Regime] have continued to pathetically try to blame President Trump for their failures with desperate lies, such as the CCP spy balloons, the train derailment in East Palestine, and now the collapse of SVB.’

The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation shut down the Silicon Valley Bank on Friday following a catastrophic bank run. The collapse of Silicon Valley Bank has now become the largest bank failure in the US since the 2008 financial crisis.

The FDIC insures deposits for up to $250,000 per depositor, per institution, per ownership category. However, startups with money in Silicon Valley Bank exceeding $250,000 are now in danger of not being able to make payroll next week.

The spokesman told Insider:

{Blaming Trump] is nothing more than a sad attempt to gaslight the public to evade responsibility.

On Sunday, Senator Bernie Sanders blamed the Silicon Valley Bank collapse on the “Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief and Consumer Protection Act” signed by Trump in 2018.

And as usual, leftists shrieked on social media that blame for the crisis should rest on Trump’s shoulders:

Fox Business noted:

EJ Antoni, research fellow in regional economics with The Heritage Foundation’s Center for Data Analysis, told FOX Business on Saturday that the collapse had ‘nothing to do with Trump or Dodd-Frank’ and more to do with an ‘unusual confluence of events.’

Antoni explained that the bank:

[D]ealt almost exclusively with tech firms which usually rely on continuously rolling over large debts which means that the firms are not paying off their debt but simply taking out new debt to pay off the old.

Antoni said:

Second, SVB put a disproportionate amount of its cash into long-term bonds. Ordinarily, that’s not a bad strategy, but it’s unwise when interest rates are zero because those rates must rise eventually.

When rates rise, bond prices fall. This is because an investor with the choice to buy an existing bond at a low rate or a new bond at a high rate will choose the new bond since it’s a better return on investment. If you want to sell the old bond with its lower interest rate, you must be willing to sell it at a discount; otherwise, no one will buy it.

Antoni explained that SVB’s undiversified clientele mean:

Too many depositors needed cash all at once forcing the liquidation of bonds that had lost value and a death spiral quickly ensued.

Antoni said:

SVB had to sell its bonds at a loss to raise cash. Limited transactions like this would not have been catastrophic, and in fact happen regularly in the financial sector on a small scale.

Antoni told FOX Business:

SVB was a case of mismanagement that was made possible by the unrealistically low rates from the Federal Reserve.

Final thoughts: This is mental illness on a grand scale—communists/globalists acting out suicidally in untold ways intending to destroy our nation and blaming Trump for the death spiral in which we find our beloved country.
