A Quick and Dirty Comparison of Standard Economics and Trump Economics

A generalized comparison of Economics models.

Standard Economics:

Dollar ↑ = Trade Deficit ↑
Tariff ↑ = GDP ↓
Tariff ↑ = Inflation ↑
Undocumented Immigrants ↑ = GDP ↑
Undocumented Immigrants ↑ = Employed Americans ↑
Repatriated Jobs ↑ = Inflation ↑
Fed Rate ↑ = Inflation ↗↓→
Top Marginal Tax Rate ↑ = GDP ↘→



Trump Economics:

Dollar ↑ = Trade Deficit ↓
Tariff ↑ = GDP ↑
Tariff ↑ = Inflation ↗↘→
Undocumented Immigrants ↑ = GDP ↓
Undocumented Immigrants ↑ = Employed Americans ↓
Repatriated Jobs ↑ = Inflation →
Fed Rate ↑ = Inflation ↑
Top Marginal Tax Rate ↑ = GDP ↓

Nothing makes sense in the Trump Economics model, and often they contradict each other.
