PALM BEACH, Florida — Former President Donald Trump told Breitbart News exclusively on Thursday evening that if he does not win the 2024 presidential election, he expects the nation’s economy will spiral into a “depression” like the 1929 “Great Depression.”

Trump, who sat with Breitbart News for more than two hours on Thursday evening at his Mar-a-Lago resort, also said during the interview that recent stock market gains are happening because the polls show him leading Democrat President Joe Biden significantly and that people are betting on a Trump victory in November.

“I think if I don’t win, we’re going to have a depression like 1929,” Trump told Breitbart News. “I think the reason the stock market is up is because if you look at the polls, people say I’m going to win. Biden is getting lucky in that regard. I had a phenomenal stock market. Everything was good about our economy. We had no inflation.”

Trump is correct that the stock market is booming right now. According to CNBC, on Friday — the last trading day of 2023 — the market closed out the year by climbing for the ninth straight week, ending the month, quarter, and year with gains.

“Stocks fell slightly on Friday, but the S&P 500 closed out 2023 with a surprising gain of 24% as inflation slowed, the economy remained strong, and the Federal Reserve signaled an end to its rate-hiking campaign,” CNBC’s Samantha Subin wrote, continuing:

The S&P 500 rose for nine straight weeks to end the year, its best win streak since 2004. Big Tech stocks lifted the Nasdaq Composite to its best year since 2020 on AI enthusiasm. The broad index fell 0.28% to settle at 4,769.83, with a 24.2% gain for the year. The S&P 500 ends 2023 just short of a new all-time high. At one point on Friday, it climbed within 9 points, or less than 0.2%, from its record close of 4,796.56 attained in January 2022.

Trump told Breitbart News that while inflation has cooled somewhat in recent months, he thinks that it has done so because the broader economy is in trouble — and that the jobs numbers are “fake” because he said millions of people are sitting on the sidelines not even looking for jobs.

“The inflation has eaten up any gains,” Trump said. “The inflation is so rampant. The inflation has calmed down a little bit now, but that’s because the economy is not good. The jobs numbers are fake because millions of people are not looking for jobs.”

Trump’s comments came during a section of the interview when Breitbart News asked him why he thinks many in the establishment media are aggressively attacking him as an “authoritarian,” with some even going so far as to ludicrously compare him to the German dictator Adolf Hitler. Asked why he thinks they are doing that, Trump said it is “because they have nothing else.”

“They have nothing to campaign on,” Trump said of the Democrats pushing the authoritarian claims into the media. “The country is a disaster. Inflation has eaten up everything. There’s a new narrative; I’m telling you the reason the stock market is up is only because people think I’m going to win the election. That’s coming out big right now. They’re saying the stock market is up because people think I’m going to win the election. That’s happening by a lot.” Since the interview with Breitbart News, Trump has pushed a similar message predicting a “Great Depression” if he does not win in November 2024 on Truth Social to his millions of followers there:

Recent polling from Morning Consult showed a majority of American voters — 50 percent — view Trump as the more trusted candidate between him and Biden to handle the economy. Biden clocks in at just 32 percent, 18 points worse than Trump.

Much more from Trump’s latest exclusive interview with Breitbart News is forthcoming.

And welcome to the hundreds who joined this month. We’re glad that you’ve joined the class. Be sure to like and share. It helps my reach.

As we approach this election year, 2024 promises to be the most eventful ever. And as a Christian conservative editorial cartoonist and journalist with over 45 years experience, I will do my best to illustrate the right view of the news with a Biblical perspective that the mainstream media won’t.

2023 CARTOON GALLERY: 33 different cartoons — one every 8 seconds. Sit back and watch the slide show (above) of the craziness that happened in 2023.

January: The Republicans gaveled-in the new Congress by bickering over who was going to be Speaker of the House. After 15 ballots, Kevin McCarthy won the seat, but not for long.

In Biden’s America, the media was excited to see the FBI raid former President Donald Trump’s home to retrieve classified documents. But when Top Secret documents from the time when he was a Senator were discovered in Biden’s garage next to his vintage corvette, the media didn’t seemed concerned. The media also didn’t care that Biden’s son, Hunter was living at the home at the time.

February: A spy balloon floated slowly over our country. It appeared to be from China. Biden had it shot down after it had safely collected enough data, uh I mean, after it traveled out to sea.

A train derailed in East Palestine, Ohio and was leaking toxic chemicals so officials blew it up wafting a toxic mist into the air. Transportation Secretary, Pete Buttigieg assured us that the cleanup crew would be diverse. President Biden never visited the disaster area. I’m sure it was NOT because the town voted for Trump in 2020.

Going Woke: Willy Wonka author Roald Dahl's children's books got a rewrite to make them politically correct. The publisher Puffin scrubbed language it deemed “insensitive” and “non-inclusive.” What’s next? Birthing Parent Water fowl?

March: Dr. Fauci ate some crow after two U.S. intelligence agencies said they believed COVID-19 was the result of a mishap in a Chinese lab, rather than Fauci’s story that it came from a bat in the wet market.

In Biden’s America inflation crushed consumers with price increases costing families an extra $11,400 a year.

Communist Chinese President Xi Jinping and Russian President Vladimir Putin have met over 40 times in the past decade but their bromance of evil appears to be getting a lot more dangerous.

Three students and three adults at Covenant Christian School in Kentucky were killed by a school shooter who was a former female student who claimed to be transgender.

April: In Biden’s America, democrats used the courts to indict former President Donald Trump. The ploy backfired when Trump’s poll numbers increased. Voters see the trumped-up charges as election interference.

In Biden’s America, smash and grabs have become commonplace causing some businesses in major cities to close or move.

Elon Musk and others voiced a concern over the dangers of AI - Artificial Intelligence.

In a shocking move, Fox News fired Tucker Carlson, their most popular host.

May: When parents complained to their school boards about pornographic materials in school libraries, the left, media and the FBI called them book-banners and domestic terrorists.

Special counsel John Durham concluded his 4-year investigation and found that the FBI should never have launched an investigation into Donald Trump for Russian Collusion. The illegal probe that crippled Trump’s presidency was a hoax paid for by Hillary Clinton. The FBI knew it early on.

In Biden’s Green New Deal America, gas appliances are bad and must be banned.

June: For Pride Month the mainstream media gave us a nauseating diet of stories on Drag Queen Story Hour for children...

President Biden tripped and fell at a graduation ceremony reminding us once again of his age concerns in his reelection campaign.

We learned that Hunter Biden created 20 shell companies that circulate foreign money but don’t provide a service. Curious. When the president was asked about it, he said, “Where’s the money?” Good question.

July: In Biden’s White House, Secret Service discovered a bag of cocaine. Despite being the most secure building in the world, they didn’t find who was responsible.

August: Minority leader Mitch McConnell froze in mid-sentence on more than one occasion leading the public to question why we have so many octogenarians in political office.

President Biden kept perpetrating the tall tale that he never discussed his son’s business despite eyewitnesses who say he dined with Hunter’s foreign business associates and on 20 occasions called into their meetings to discuss the weather. It must’ve been raining money.

Trump didn’t participate in the first presidential debate with the other GOP candidates, but he overshadowed the event.

September: Trump was arraigned, photographed and pleaded not guilty in a Washington, DC, federal courthouse to charges related to the January 6 case. His mugshot made for an iconic cartoon.

Hunter Biden threatens to sue the IRS for embarrassing him. Didn’t he do that to himself?

In a prisoner swap with Iran, the world's leading state sponsor of terrorism, President Biden decided to unfreeze $6 billion in Iranian assets to be used only for humanitarian purposes. I trust them, don’t you?

October: Rep. Matt Gaetz of Florida, challenges and successfully ousted Kevin McCarthy.

On Oct. 7, Iran-backed terrorist group Hamas attacked Israel killing over 1200 innocent men, women and children with indescribable brutality. Americans were among the hostages reminding us of Jimmy Carter’s foreign policy.

More than 3,800 car dealerships sent a letter to President Joe Biden urging him to put the brakes on his demand for EV production because the dealers are losing money on them.

Mike Johnson becomes the new Speaker of the House.

November: Millions of anti-semitic protesters take to the streets in cities around the world and at American colleges in opposition to Israel and the Jews. Protests on campuses became threatening to Jewish students.

The General, former IU Coach Bob Knight died.

Biden’s poll numbers are worse than Jimmy Carter’s at this point in his presidency.

December: The Colorado Supreme Court ruled that Trump should be kept off of the ballot for president. Maine Secretary of State Shenna Bellows also barred Trump for the 2024 ballot. It’s obvious that the media, the courts and the DOJ are all out to interfere in the 2024 election.

My “It’s a Wonderful Life” cartoon says, protect your children from psychological poison. Instead “Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in him.” - Psalm 34:8
