Trump’s policies will worsen next recession, top Moody’s economist says
Mark Zandi claims promised 4 percent GDP growth is "not gonna happen"
(Excerpt)
Donald Trump’s economic plans may worsen the next downturn, according to Moody’s Analytics chief economist Mark Zandi.
“I think the economy is going to be more cyclical as a result” of Trump’s election, Zandi, a Democrat, said Thursday at a Urban Land Institute New York event.
“Trump’s been saying ‘I’m going to get 4 percent GDP growth’ – that’s not going to happen,” Zandi said.
Zandi, one of the country’s best-known economists, had first claimed that Trump’s proposed economic policies would lead to a “lengthy recession” in a June report.
