Trump Dismisses Short-Term Economic Concerns Amid Transition Claims

Former President Donald Trump reiterated his indifference toward short-term economic downturns, framing current conditions as a transitional phase. "Everything’s OK. This is a transition period," he stated, later echoing the sentiment on Truth Social: "We’re only in a transition stage, just getting started!" The remarks followed lackluster April job growth data.

Trump seized the figures to renew calls for Federal Reserve rate cuts, arguing that lower borrowing costs—coupled with stable employment—would accelerate economic momentum. The stance comes as critics amplify warnings that his tariff policies risk stoking inflation and stifling growth. Markets, however, appeared buoyed by progress on trade negotiations and anticipated Fed actions.
