""For many devotees, Trump was a political savant. He was playing '4-D chess,' supposedly outsmarting billionaire backers and Nobel Prize-winning economists who cautioned against his policies.""
""In an April 7th video, Iowa-based evangelist Julie Green claimed that God had warned her of the economic crash before the tariffs were announced, citing a divine plan in action.""
In the wake of devastating economic predictions following President Trump's tariffs, House Speaker Mike Johnson urged trust in Trump's instincts. Supporters echoed this sentiment, attributing Trump's moves to a strategic genius likened to '4-D chess.' Contrastingly, many established economists and analysts raised alarms about the adverse consequences of his economic policies. Amid these conflicting narratives, figures like evangelist Julie Green suggested a divine intervention in the economy, claiming that God forewarned the crash. This marks a significant shift from the more analytical political approaches seen in earlier administrations like Obamaâs.
