"Political Leaders Spar Over Economic Predictions and Impact on Working Families"

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi criticized former President Donald Trump for expressing hope that the economy would crash within the next 12 months, stating that he doesn't understand the impact on America's working families. Trump's comments, made during an interview, were seen as self-serving and insensitive by Pelosi, who also praised President Biden's handling of the economy. Economists have largely expressed optimism about the economic outlook, despite Trump's remarks, and White House and Biden campaign aides condemned his comments as "vile."
