President Donald Trump ’s economic policies are so bad, so baffling, and so poorly communicated that CNBC host Jim Cramer wonders if he’s deliberately trying to cause a recession.

CNBC host Jim Cramer went off on President Donald Trump for fueling recession fears and cratering the stock market, noting competitor markets are "crushing us." The post ‘They’re Crushing Us!’ CNBC’s Jim Cramer Flips Out on Trump Over Stock Market — Says He’s ‘Manufacturing’ a Recession first appeared on Mediaite.

Lower rates can stimulate the economy, and Cramer said the data in the CPI report gives the Fed room to cut, which would benefit the market as a whole. The central bank may actually have to cut, he continued, because tariff increases could lead consumers to spend less, which in turn means many retailers will miss their estimates.

CNBC’s Jim Cramer suggested tariffs dictate recent market action, saying stocks indicate that the White House should take a different approach to the issue.
