Recession Odds Spike to 45% in Sharpest Economic Warning from Economists Yet
In 2025, the United States found itself at a crossroads in economic governance and constitutional authority. Following President Donald Trump’s re-election, the administration reinvigorated its protectionist trade agenda, dramatically escalating tariffs on a wide array of imports.

Trump Deflects Blame as First Economic Contraction of Presidency Sparks Backlash

The contraction, clocking in at an annualized 0.3%, came amid President Donald Trump’s renewed trade-focused economic policy, specifically a resurgence of tariff impositions on foreign imports. Occurring within his first 100 days of a historic non-consecutive second term, Trump’s aggressive return to protectionist trade tactics reflects broader legal and policy challenges in modern U.S. governance.
