Lord Dampnut's tale of Bad Faith and Bafflegab blaming a Biden "Overhang" [1]

The U.S. economy shrank 0.3% in the first quarter of 2025, catching Wall Street off guard and kicking recession chatter into high gear.
The "==" symbol in Trump's Truth Social post from April 26, 2025, is likely a stylistic choice to emphasize urgency, particularly after "and FAST!" Trump often uses unique punctuation, like multiple exclamation points, to draw attention to his messages.
Some speculate it could be a typo or formatting error, as transcriptions vary (e.g., some see it as an em dash). Others suggest it might be a coded signal, but there's no evidence to support this.
Given Trump's history of dramatic social media tactics, like the "covfefe" typo in 2017, the symbol probably aims to spark curiosity and discussion around his call for rapid deportation of those he labels as criminals.
