A Shift in President Trump’s Messaging on the Economy
Provost Emeritus and the Lawrence Herbert Distinguished Professor Herman A. Berliner was featured in a Newsday story about President Donald Trump’s economic messaging, which has shifted from promises to end inflation to warnings of “a little disturbance” amid lagging consumer confidence and a slumping stock market. “This is a very popular president. He’s listened to by a lot of people in the country. If he says that the economy is going to go through some turbulence, people will believe that,” said Dr. Berliner. “He’s an enormously influential person in terms of both steering the economy and reassuring the country about the economy.”
