Judgment Free Zone: "Do you think Trump was better for the economy?"

[King_Sage]

Trump was handed the best economy arguably ever, and caused record inflation with inaction and ignorance around the pandemic. Democrats have historically been better than Republicans for economy. Trickle down policies don't work, when the game is capitalism

 

[DEAD7]

The president doesnt control the economy in a way that makes the question make sense, and the current president rarely is responsible for what impact we do see in the economy.

 

[I Really Mean It]

clearly not.

we’re presently emerging from the ruins of an economy that collapsed under trump’s malignantly inept management of covid.

 

[Buddy]

and that was congress. Trump just stamped his name on the 2nd wave of relief checks

I was honestly tryna make fun who people still nostalgic over that shyt

 

[How Sway?]

No he wasn't necessarily better. He benefitted from inheriting the largest economic expansion in us history and Obama's attemp to actually balance the budget deficit in America.


Plus donald overhauled the tax code making it harder for a lot of people to deduct certain expenses and make adjustments on you taxes (although business owners benefitted the most from the TCJA which is good for them, but the avg American ain't a business owner).

And quiet as kept, the federal debt exploded under trump. And this was before the pandemic. All this inflation bullshyt were dealing with was ultimately gonna happen anyway but covid just accelerated it. (And yes, covid was Trump’s blunder. The fact that he still has a shot at winning is nothing short of Amazing and tells you how fukked up and racist a lot of Americans are in the head )

But at the end of the day, the president dosent control the economy as much as people think so it is what it is.

No he just inherited Obama's economy which was booming. The same people who say that about Trump though will say that Obama had a bad economy.

 

[Born2BKing]

Its why he’ll win this election. All about perception. Facts don’t matter to people

Perception is he is a rich successful business man, so he will be good on the economy. Its ignorant and untrue, but its the perception. Hey let the people get what they want if they vote for Trump. They finna find out.

@ORDER_66

He a broke b*stard that let inexperienced McDonald's workers outhustle him in hourly pay

 

[Wild self]

who says this? he was the worse thing in basically every way

Its because in the Trump era, people were making $11 an hour, talking about "I'm balling" working 3 jobs just to get by.

People in the Biden era are making at least $24 per hour now, with the same job.

 

[Starman]

Where's the poll?

 

[Wild self]

Judgement free zone?

If you don't explain yourself as articulate as Colin Powell, then you just a lackey for partisanship.

 

[Wiseborn]

Yes the war in Gaza and Ukraine impacts the global economy more than what Trump or Biden did.

 

[Rice N Beans]

No, because it was (and still is) too top heavy for policies.

 

[jerzboy]

If you're lov-income, then COVID was a very weird godsend, because the government sent you checks that was probably more than your paychecks. But overall, nope.

That $1200 was LIFE CHANGING
