• More than 700 economists from major US institutions signed an open letter warning against reelecting President Donald Trump.
• They wrote that Trump's "selfish and reckless behavior" had weakened the economy and described Trump's actions as a "sustained assault" on democracy.
• "He has a poorly-informed, zero-sum view of economics that engenders needless viciousness and cruelty," the economists wrote.
• Among the economists are seven Nobel winners, including Paul Milgrom, Oliver Hart, and George Akerlof.

7 Nobel laureates? I wish they would have sounded off earlier, like say, before the Trump - Biden debates.

The Trump campaign said the letter included little about why Biden would be better suited for the position.

Subject Matter Experts versus Yes Men.

So who do I trust. 700 economists including 7 Nobel Laureates, or Trump and his toadies and Fauxed Up Nooz?

In a 2016 letter, economists warned us Trump's economic promises made no sense at all. And here we are.
Creeping Chaos and disaster. 400 economists including 10 Nobel laureates warned us Bush 43's tax cuts would bury us in deficits. It did. But who listens to expert economists including Nobel laureates?

I wish that these economist could set up a website that excludes right wing think tanks, economic charlatans, and cranks, GOP ideologues, in a curated site where one could go to get reasoned and credible economics information.
