Remember the horrible Biden economy, the one beating jobs numbers month after month? (1 Viewer)

Amazingly the Donald is blaming his failure on that same economy.

Amazingly?

Amazingly the Donald is blaming his failure on that same economy.

Everyone needs to remember this. Many are still under the impression that many trump supporters will stop supporting trump if he destroys the economy. Not true. They still support him after leading an insurrection against our country. A bad economy or even a depression will only lose him maybe 15 or 20% of his supporters. Yes, that's enough to where he will lost some political power, but he will still be a force to be reckoned with and that kind of support loss will only make him more angry and more inclined to break the law.

Remember the horrible Biden economy

Do you mean the one poised at the edge of a recession at the end of last year?

the one beating jobs numbers month after month?

Biden's best unemployment figures were in 2023. Job numbers have been slipping since then.

Amazingly the Donald is blaming his failure on that same economy.

There is a grain of truth in that.

Everyone needs to remember this. Many are still under the impression that many trump supporters will stop supporting trump if he destroys the economy. Not true.

What is your basis for this?

Trump has always done well with the economy and very well during the pandemic.

They still support him after leading an insurrection against our country.

That was only in the news, not in reality.

Lying about is central to the Democrat's loss of credibility.

A bad economy or even a depression will only lose him maybe 15 or 20% of his supporters. Yes, that's enough to where he will lost some political power, but he will still be a force to be reckoned with and that kind of support loss will only make him more angry and more inclined to break the law.

Your unsupported opinion is noted.

There was a recession at the end of last year? Did unemployment skyrocket in 2024? Where was I when this stuff happened? Trump did nothing but lie to us about COVID so yes, he is an extremely good liar. I honestly don't know what you think you are defending? Still trying to own the libs?

 

[Feynman Lives!]

Do you mean the one poised at the edge of a recession at the end of last year?

No. The one poised at the edge of a recession in January 2009. And from which Biden pulled us out. Economists agreed that there was NO threat of recession at the end of last year... UNLESS... Trump were to become President.

 

[ElChupacabra]

Amazingly?

"Predictably"

 

[CaughtInThe]

Trump is just a horrible business person that a fake TV show turned into some kind of genius.

He's just a dumbass (except for conning and extorting).

 

[Jay59]

There was a recession at the end of last year?

Read for comprehension.

Did unemployment skyrocket in 2024?

You said it lowered month after month when it didn't.

Where was I when this stuff happened?

Complaining about the election result

Trump did nothing but lie to us about COVID so yes, he is an extremely good liar.

That's demonstrably false.

I honestly don't know what you think you are defending?

The facts.

I understand it may be a foreign concept.

Still trying to own the libs?

What do you mean still?

No. The one poised at the edge of a recession in January 2009.

That makes no sense.

The economy in January 2009 was poised on the edge of recovery.

And from which Biden pulled us out.

Biden was Vice President and had little input on economic matters.

Economists agreed that there was NO threat of recession at the end of last year... UNLESS... Trump were to become President.

America’s Image Abroad Rebounds With Transition From Trump to Biden

A new survey of 16 publics finds a significant uptick in ratings for the U.S., with strong support for Joe Biden and several of his major policy initiatives. But many raise concerns about the health of America’s political system.

Yes, that's why we need to go chasing after real things like secret Kenyan birth certificates, cancer-causing wind turbines, and cat-eating Haitians in Ohio.

 

[Feynman Lives!]

That makes no sense.

The economy in January 2009 was poised on the edge of recovery.

I meant 2019. Trump left the country on the verge of a recession. Even BEFORE Covid.

Obviously. Last year we were pretty much out of any danger of a recession. Thanks to Biden.

You are claiming I have made comments I haven't made I never said unemployment got lower each month, I said the Biden economy was beating job expectations month after month. Trump lied about COVID and you say it is demonstrably false, so demonstrate the falseness you claim. What does 2009 have to do with today?

That was only on Fox News. Here was the reality at the end of last year:

That's right. You love conspiracy theories.

Not before. Coinciding with the official discovery.

How much do you trust the Chinese to tell the truth about embarrassing internal matters?

Obviously. Last year we were pretty much out of any danger of a recession.

Then why did we have recession warnings for the last three quarters?

Thanks to Biden.

Thanks for nothing, Joe.

I no longer have a dog.

Trump is what Trump is--a pain in the ass who is very good at the job of chief administrator.

BEFORE! The strong economy that Trump inherited had significantly slowed down even BEFORE 2020

The Trump administration was ruining the pre-COVID-19 economy too, just more slowly

You don’t have to be an economist to know how the U.S. economy is doing today: It’s an utter shambles, with tens of millions of workers unable to find the work they need to get by, and with tens of millions of families facing extreme hardship and anxiety. These terrible conditions are mostly the...

No idea what the Chinese have to do with what I wrote.

Then why did we have recession warnings for the last three quarters?

And the warnings were RIGHT. Trump DID become President. And now it's MORE than a warning. A recession is imminent if Trump doesn't COMPLETELY change course.

Maybe you should have paid attention to the warnings BEFORE voting for Trump.

He is demonstrably not very good at it, as the economy is showing.

Correct. I grew up in your state and we both know that audience well.
