Well, we found out what washed-up Lou Dobbs is doing with his time these days. Working for Lindell TV and giving Trump a platform to spout un-American hateful nonsense like this:

Donald Trump admitted Monday that he wants a severe economic downturn to happen during the next year, because it will help his odds of winning the presidential election. [...]

Dobbs asked what Trump would do to “restore primacy” for those who are “fighting for their economic and their real survival.” [...]

“So what we will be doing is we will be drilling, we will be reducing energy, that will bring down inflation, that will bring down interest rates,” he said.

“We have an economy that is incredible,” he went on to say, reflective of last year’s strong labor market gains. “We have an economy that is so fragile. And the only reason it’s running now is it’s running off the fumes of what we did—what the Trump administration did. It’s just running off the fumes.”

“And when there’s a crash, I hope it’s going to be during these next twelve months, because I don’t want to be Herbert Hoover,” he continued, referring to the president when the Great Depression hit in 1929. “The one president—I just don’t want to be Herbert Hoover.”

As Raw Story noted:

While Americans are climbing out of the economic fall in 2020, numbers have slowly improved, charts posted by the Washington Post explain. Inflation is continuing to go down. Employment continues to go up. After Republicans blamed President Joe Biden for high gas prices, those have fallen. [...]

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) was criticized early last year for claiming that "extreme" Republicans are hoping for an economic crash and that ushering in another government shutdown could help them create one.

We all know Trump has no filter, so he keeps saying the quiet part out loud.

The Biden-Harris campaign took note on Twitter.
