Insipid former New York Times economics columnist Paul Krugman is batting a thousand with the level of maniacal things he’s spewed onto the internet within just a 24-hour window. Krugman released a YouTube video of himself May 31 ironically calling President Donald Trump “mentally ill” before monotonously calling for a “thorough purging of the United States” tantamount to a “de-MAGA-fication” of the populace. He must have had some kind of inkling that what he said was cuckoo-for-Cocoa-Puffs, because he had to assure viewers that he’s “not going over the top by using a word that’s very similar to the ‘de-Nazification’ that we pursued successfully after World War II in Germany.” Hey Krugman, calling someone “mentally ill” while simultaneously calling for a “purge” of your fellow Americans you disagree with is some insane work. Worthy of note is that Denazification involved prosecuting “war criminals.” Is that what Krugman is saying should happen to his MAGA detractors? It seems like it.  But Krugman just kept running his perverted mouth: “It’s not just the MAGA ideology but the whole structure of hugely unequal power, hugely unequal wealth that made this horrific moment possible.” “Unequal wealth?” Krugman — for the love of Adam Smith — you’re a multimillionaire kvetching on YouTube while the average American is dealing with a salary hovering just over $66,500, according to SoFi. Go take a hike! Krugman’s anti-Trump screed-fest was published just a day before he plastered another deranged hot take on his Substack June 1 calling Trump’s crackdown on illegal immigration “pogroms,” in effect cheapening the horrific events that constituted widespread massacres of the Jewish people prior to the Holocaust. Krugman took it a step further, likening ICE agents deporting people here illegally — including violent criminals — to the sexual depravity undergirding the twisted philosophy of French nobleman Marquis de Sade: “The Trump administration’s attack on immigrants isn’t about rule of law, crime or jobs. It’s racism and sadism all the way down.”   Krugman has made himself the poster child for Godwin’s Law in just one 24-hour cycle, which is a fear unto itself. The “law” posits that as “an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches one.”  Here’s our tip for the Keynesian devotee with the perpetually dysfunctional crystal ball: Just because you can write and say words, doesn’t mean you always should. But who are we kidding? Trying to discourage Krugman from saying innately stupid stuff in public is like trying to keep a drunk uncle from grabbing the microphone at Thanksgiving— ain’t happening, and everyone’s gonna hear the same tired nonsense again.
