My prediction for 2023 Is that Donald Trump failed former president gets indicted there are a number of ways that this could happen. There could be a federal indictment coming. There could be an indictment in New York coming. There could be an indictment in Georgia coming those are the three largest possibilities and most likely possibilities. I am not making any prediction as to whether Donald Trump will settle, will go to trial will be found guilty will serve time in prison. Actually, my prediction is he will not serve time in prison. But I do believe that during the 2023 calendar year Donald Trump is going to be indicted. Now the reality is that Trump could be indicted for so many different things, probably dozens of instances of interfering and obstructing with all sorts of different investigations during his first four years, you could make a case for sedition as part of Trump’s inciting and insurrection. You could make a case for significant criminality and Donald Trump acting in the state of Georgia to try to overturn the election results. Remember, Joe Biden won Georgia in 2020. Trump tried to steal it. He said I need 11,000 votes, give me a break, and acted and tried to strong arm people. There are so many possible crimes that Donald Trump has committed. And I believe at a certain point at the end of the day in 2023, it’s going to end with Donald Trump indicted, I do not yet know and some of the interesting questions are, how will this affect Trump’s 2024 Run? It’s been largely inactive. He’s mostly stayed home since announcing the candidacy in November. Polling is in the toilet, losing to Ron DeSantis. And many polls, Ron DeSantis, hasn’t even announced that he’s running for anything. And so it’s not looking particularly good. So there’s sort of two ways to think about this. If Trump is indicted, will it force him out? Or if Trump is indicted? will it provide an opportunity, a welcome opportunity for Donald Trump to bail on what is so far a completely failing 2020 for a campaign. That being said, I would advise my fellow liberals not to assume that Trump has no shot. Many assumed that in 2016, and we’re wrong. And it would be smart not to do that, because a lot can happen. A lot can change between now and 2024. In particular, Trump’s number one opponent, Ron DeSantis, is not actually running yet. And if indeed he decides not to run, that support is going to have to go somewhere else. And part of it may go to Trump and it might end up shaking out and looking kind of okay for him. So indictment watches happening. We’ll see if the campaign gets going. We’ll see what the scope of that campaign is. And also it’ll be important to see what happens within the Republican National Committee. Rhonda McDaniel is being challenged for RNC chair by Mike pillow, you know, the my pillow CEO and founder Michael and Dell. That’s a big pro Trump voice. We’ll have to see what happens there. So let’s see in a year, whether I ended up being vindicated or if this is yet another one of my failed predictions. I’ve had some bad predictions in the past. And we will continue to follow all of it very closely.

Trump knew his promise to lower egg prices was nonsense
In August 2024, then-candidate Donald Trump held a press conference surrounded by packaged foods, milk and eggs, proclaiming: “When I win, I will immediately bring prices down, starting on Day One.” Now, as President, Trump faces a surge in egg prices, which jumped more than 15% last month due to the ongoing avian flu — the largest… -
The real costs of Trump’s tariffs
In a high-stakes trade war initiated by U.S. President Donald Trump less than two weeks into his second term, the United States imposed 25% tariffs on all non-exempt imports from Canada, 10% for China, and nearly implemented a similar 25% tariff on Mexican imports before striking a last-minute deal with Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum. Following… -
H-1B visa program ignites a civil war within MAGA
On his first day back in the White House, President Donald Trump signed a record number of executive orders, including some intending to revise Biden-era immigration policies. However, one program stayed the same: the H-1B visa, which allows companies to hire highly skilled foreign workers. This has sparked a debate between two of Trump’s allies,… -
Voters must hold Trump accountable to his economic promises
Former President Biden leaves behind a soaring U.S. economy that economists say is the envy of the world. With record-low unemployment, record-high stocks, rising wages and 3% annual GDP growth, some analysts say it will be a difficult task for Trump to perform as well as Biden has. Yet President Donald Trump campaigned on the… -
Tracking economic trends from Biden to Trump
As Donald Trump starts his second presidential term, he’s stepping into an economy that looks very different from the one he passed to Joe Biden four years ago. The economy today boasts of consistent growth, lower inflation, rising wages and record-low unemployment. Trump has nonetheless made bold promises for the U.S. economy, including imposing tariffs…
