Trump's Final Numbers, lost 2.9 Million Jobs, unemployment rose from 4.7% to 6.3%

Don’t forget trump’s gigantic tax cut, JV, the $1.9 trillion dollar Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. Passed entirely by Republicans in 2017 by 51-49 in the Senate and 224-201 in the House (12 Republicans voted against it), it played a very large role in adding massively to the deficit, Covid or not. The huge tax cuts for corporations are permanent. The tax cuts for everyone else? Most expire in 2025, something mentioned by the GOP and trump’s administration as little as possible.

Just thought I’d mention it.

I'm not dogging Biden. I'm dogging the person who thinks quoting numbers without context is somehow an insight.

 

Your typical weekend sniveling has become cute like a starved teacup poodle.

You dug this old subject you love to half-aassedly rehash that we could go over several times with context in this thread.

At best, you're just too lazy or stubborn to address anything in detail in that thread.

At worst, you've Dunning Kruger'd yourself (like your thoughts on "QE" for China or the Depression (!)) And can only nitpick lines from me to make us both look bad.

I shouldn't derail this embarrassment and let you cook.

 

So it just really hit me that we're going to spend the next 8 months re-hashing The Donald's first term from both sides of the isle over and over, drilling down on meaningless minutiae ad infinitum when we can't even achieve consensus on the basic facts, and I'm already over it.

If anybody can put me in a medically induced coma until Nov 7th, I'd be willing to pay good money.

 

COVID a Hoax I'll tell 'em. Let 'em die while I lie. I need to golf and hold rallies & fundraisers. We need people there. I have flags & hats to sell, propaganda to push, and lies to spread.

 

COVID affected those numbers
There was a DNC congress for half his term
The economy is shaped by more than executive orders or implementation of legislative policy, and grows and contracts more consistently than on a presidential electoral or partisan scorecard (as we should want it to).

 

Sadly many seem to have short term amnesia or selective memory of what things were like during his first term. Heck practically every member of the GOP in Congress seems to have forgotten that many of them were hiding or running for their lives on Jan. 6th.

 

4 years ago under Trump, we couldn't find toilet paper on the shelves of grocery stores, there were no paper towels, shelves were empty, people were unable to work and somehow we should long for those days?
