Conservative strategist Shermichael Singleton questioned President Trump’s ability to perform well in the face of a potential recession on Tuesday, raising concerns about debt and the deficit.
“The economy is doing fairly well, but look at the debt. Look at the deficit. That is what is concerning me the most,” Singleton, a former aide to Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson and a columnist for The Hill, told Hill.TV’s Krystal Ball and Buck Sexton on “Rising.”
“I think a lot of economists are beginning to wonder when we will see our next recession. We’re thinking in the next year or two. So I’m beginning to wonder considering President Trump and some of his unpredictability, how well will he lead the country if we do face another recession,” he continued. “I’m not certain that he’ll do fairly well if presented with such a problem.”
