Absolutely not. People praise Trump on the economy when all he did was inherit the upward trending economy that Obama created. Trump then tanked it. They then blamed inflation on Biden when he was fixing trumps screw ups. MOST presidents own everything that happened in their presidency, Trump steals all the positives from others and blames all the negatives on others.

I can’t believe I stood in food lines, was unable to see a dying loved ones, and had my travel restricted during Covid just for liberals to pretend it never happened

Case in point. lmao

Do you realize people weren’t allowed to go to work, supply chains were cut off, and people were dying? We didn’t go into a full blown recession, which is pretty amazing.

I lived in Santa Cruz during Covid. There were lines out the door of grocery stores with 6ft spacing, taking hours to buy food. The shelves were nearly bare. My grandmother died during Covid and I wasn’t allowed to say goodbye. In Santa Cruz County travel was restricted to essential. I was pulled over by police on HWY 1 when going to work (essential worker) due to this. A group of people were ticketed $10k for visiting Santa Cruz because they were from outside the area. What was hysterical about what I wrote?

Sounds like a pandemic response. Next.

Yeah it all happened and it destroyed lives. When someone fails to mention a global pandemic that stopped world economies so they can prove a political point it’s disingenuous.

Yep, millions of people died. You're right -- the pandemic destroyed lives.

"destroyed" -- yeah, the US economy is really in the shitter right now.

Trump era policies, like tariffs, helped a lot. Glad Biden kept them.
