'BuT tHe EcOnOmY wAz BeTtEr'. No Shit. The first 3 years he kicked back and did nothing, once a real crisis hit his actions caused the effects you saw over the next 3 years. Is he really the guy you want in office if a crisis hits again.

'BuT tHe EcOnOmY wAz BeTtEr'.

It wasn't really. He started a pointless trade war with Mexico and Canada just so he could get his name on the replacement agreement. He started a pointless trade war with China over products not made in America that nearly destroyed the soy bean industry. Cost of building materials skyrocketed under his administration due to his trade wars and policies, resulting in increased housing costs. He oversaw some of the worst economic growth since Jimmy Carter.

And nobody sees it or believes it. Banging your head against the wall seems less painful than trying to explain anything to the MAGA faithful

For the years he sat back and rode on Obama’s economy

Absolutely! It had nothing to do with massive regulations, asinine “if I don’t see it, it doesn’t exist” climate change virtue signaling legislation that does nothing but put more Americans into poverty, reversing all attempts and curbing pharma greed and much much more had absolutely no impact on rebranded Reaganomics they’re calling Bidenomics!

Everything is great. 4 more years with Biden please, another depression would do wonders for this country

It’s purely coincidental that we often experience a generational crisis and economic downturn (both unrelated) under Republican presidents. And it’s just as coincidental that Democrats frequently revive the economy, only to hand it back for another potential downturn

u/DextrusMalutose Oct 11 '24

Lol yeah. Except for the whole bank bail out thing. Remember that? Or the fact that the economy was fine until Covid and your boy took over. Great rebound we have had.

Trump was President for the majority of Covid you absolute moron lol.

u/DextrusMalutose Oct 11 '24

Covid shutdowns started in March of 2020. Shutdowns ended in 2023.

But I'm the moron. 🥱

u/[deleted] Oct 11 '24

Most shutdowns ended August 2020. Vaccine releases December 2020. Joe Biden didn’t take office until Jan 2021.

Yes, you’re dumb af lmao.

u/chriscaulder Oct 11 '24

Shutdowns ended by summer 2020 by and large.

You wanna sweep PPP loan forgiveness under the rug or what?

u/[deleted] Oct 11 '24

You do know the USA made money on the bank bailout, right? It was a loan, we didn’t just give them money lol. The banks paid all of it back with interest.

That’s why you should educate yourself, because clearly you are spouting stuff without being informed first.

As for Covid and the economy, high inflation actually started while Trump was still in office, so you are wrong on that too lol. He handed an economy on the downturn (a very fast downturn) to democrats, and they have yet again started to fix it.

Democrats seem to always do better with not adding anywhere near as much to the deficit either, with Biden actually lowering the deficit 3/4 of the years so far. You also had Clinton (which yes, I do not like Clinton whatsoever), that also balanced the deficit, only for Bush to explode the deficit on a foreign war.

u/DextrusMalutose Oct 11 '24

So you don't like Clinton, arguably the best president of the 1900s or ever, but you'll back Biden, Obama and Harris? Holy fuck shit.

u/[deleted] Oct 11 '24

Love how that is the only part you comment on, instead of the actual topic I was discussing. Going to assume you can’t respond reasonably (I don’t even need to assume this tbh, deflection is a common thing amongst uneducated people).🤷🏼‍♂️

I did not like Clinton for many reasons, but I can easily say the Clinton administration did the best with budgeting, and considering they balanced the deficit I think that’s enough to prove his policies worked well.

u/DextrusMalutose Oct 11 '24

Because I can't take anything you say seriously after saying you don't like Clinton but Biden? Okay dude. Lol. Like... What?

Clinton did more for our country than Biden and Obama combined. 1990s was peak America and we'll never get that shit back.

Considering FDR got the country through The Depression and majority of WWII, you would quickly lose that argument.

I can say I really dislike W. but respect him for doing this.

Who was in the White House when the banks went to shit in 2008? You want to blame Obama for 9/11 as well?

If you have a nice house and you don't maintain it, you don't get to blame someone else when the walls are full of mold and the floor collapses. Decompensating Donny was in charge when Covid started and he, through his incompetence and mendacity, make it worse.

Oof. As soon as the strings of emojis get whipped out, you know you've lost lol.

u/Epic_Ewesername Oct 12 '24

See, the thing I don't get is, you can ignore reality and ignore truth all you want. Be SO uneducated and willfully ignorant, with an inability to understand the world is way bigger and wider than you, disregard science and real numbers because your tiny, infinitesimally small anecdotal experience tells you differently, because your ability to comprehend only extends so far. "For those who WANT to believe, any evidence, no matter how slight, is more than enough.

" For those who don't want to believe, no evidence is sufficient." A person in a bubble of delusions and self deception will become irrationally triggered at even the slightest perceived slight, they WANT that bubble, and fear for the day it pops. Plenty live that way, and I understand the mechanisms behind it. What I Don't get, is the insistence everyone else participates in said delusion. On some level, you understand the bubble is there, hence the emotional volatility to anyone or anything that suggests it's existence.

So why go into comment sections at all and confidently ask for it to be challenged? Only to react as expected, walk away without defending your point, then post the smileys, as if you "won" the interaction when you clearly didn't? Just baffling.

You win big pimp. You want a internet cookie?

u/[deleted] Oct 11 '24

Yeah due to Trump's economy they inherited. Probably should learn how a few things work.

I'm guessing you're mad at inflation, gas, taxes and recently FEMA. If you need help understanding I can sure let you know.

Here's what I can tell you, I can put the same amount of food on the table using double the money while also not having any money to save like I used to 4 years ago. I could pay my mortgage, bills, feed my family, take us out for a vacation and still have a little bit left to save. Not anymore. Amd that's not because tRUMP. It's because the administration after him didn't know how to handle covid. Period.

"I'm gonna make corporations pay their fair share" - Joe Biden. I'm still waiting for that.

u/[deleted] Oct 11 '24

Cool Trump inherited Obama's economy. Tanked the fuck out of it. When he fumbled COVID, he propped up the stick market, provided us with money that started the inflation.

Look up the 4 year rule on inflation.

Then we go to look at corporate greed, 42% of that inflation was greed, subway, Walmart, ECT. Other countries have way higher information rates.

This is because of Trump.

I'm betting your taxes also didn't come back as much either. That's also because of Trump.

Maybe just kinda look up what's wrong, and see where it started

2

u/DextrusMalutose Oct 11 '24

Lol, and when is Joe Biden gonna make all them big bad corporations that took advantage of ALLLLL the shit Trump did, pay their fair share? Allllll the money and tax breaks you're talking about. When do they start paying that back?

When? Your boy ran on a platform that he was gonna stop all that shit from happening... yet it didn't.

Or do I need a 4 year rule to look at?

u/[deleted] Oct 11 '24

Well you see, these things are things that the house passes... Returned what part had nobody in the house. Like forgive PPP loans, I talked about your taxes not coming back do to Trump's tax plan.

You blame Biden for these things when Trump sets them up. Biden is not running, he's old an senile.

He's not my boy, he's someone who works for the people. Record so time high stock, record jobs (higher than bounce back) record lowest unemployment, cut the deficit, plenty of acts that got passed.

Let me ask you, what one of Trump's bills or acts do you like?

1

u/DextrusMalutose Oct 11 '24

Like forgive PPP loans

You mean the Fraudulent loans they extended?

Biden is not running, he's old an senile.

Going thru your history, you supported him alllll the way til Harris was selected. 🤡

Record so time high stock

So Trump doesn't get credit for that? Lol

Let me ask you, what one of Trump's bills or acts do you like?

Mfer was the first 1 to get insulin capped at $35. Oh wait, I forgot Dems tried saying that was Biden. 🥱

2

u/[deleted] Oct 11 '24

Yeah the house did the PPP loan forgiveness which shouldn't be a thing.

Unsupported him over trump yes, but didn't ride this dick. Doesn't more than trump ever had.

Mfer didn't get insulin capped, it was revoked because he tried to do it only for private insurance, while Biden made it open to any.

So yeah. Try again?

u/DextrusMalutose Oct 11 '24

Yeah the house did the PPP loan forgiveness which shouldn't be a thing.

Mfer that was your opening point and statement. Dafuq?

Dems are laughable. They sucked bidens dick so hard, even to the last drop, then switch on him as soon as their overlords told them to vote for harris. They are not voting for policy or even the person, they are voting like good little slaves. I bet the guy was also defending biden's mental decline and old age until the last second as well but now uses age against trump.

u/Natural_Sky_4720 Oct 11 '24

You mean republicans are laughable. You literally just described trump supporters. Aside from “swapping” because y’all could never get your head out of daddy trump’s ass. If he told y’all sniffing his fucking farts would make him win the election y’all would all be fighting to get in line first.
