Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said she was working to address financial system vulnerabilities and economic risks, but cautioned against too much negativism in the outlook.

“I wouldn’t overdo the negativism about the global economy,” Ms. Yellen said.

The vice president had a reputation for being President Nixon’s attack dog and skewering political opponents as “nattering nabobs of negativism,” “vicars of vacillation” and “pusillanimous pussyfooters.”

The Trump nightmare still disturbs us, disgorging the egomaniac’s negativism and allowing us no rest from his divisiveness.

“So, we’ve got to be in a position to overcome all of that negativism that they’re going to be throwing at us, in addition to what they already have in place.”
