Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Trump Urges Patience as U.S. Economy Shrinks for First Time in Three Years
Caption: Trump Urges Patience as U.S. Economy Shrinks for First Time in Three Years. President Donald Trump is calling for more time to revive the U.S. economy after it shrank by 0.3%—the first contraction in three years. The decline has fueled recession concerns and sparked criticism of Trump’s early economic record just 100 days into his presidency. At a White House event, Trump blamed former President Joe Biden for the downturn saying the effects of his own policies aren’t yet visible. He also claimed that $8 trillion in promised investment would help restore U.S. manufacturing. Trump dismissed the GDP figure as misleading, arguing it was skewed by companies stockpiling goods ahead of his new tariffs which have rattled markets worldwide.
