Sadly, he only needs to say "it is the best economy in the history of this country. You have so much money you don't know what to do with it", and voters immediately believe him.
The right around the world convinced people that they were the economic conservatives whilst running up the debt, cutting services and benefits, giving companies and the rich tax cuts so that there's no way back. And the media, owned by the rich, say this is what is best for the country.
Carter inherited from Nixon & Ford a wicked stagflation economy and unemployment exceeded 7%, so he doesn't deserve the ignominy as a president who triggered a recession. In fact, he probably deserves credit for setting up the economy that benefited Reagan's legacy.
And we all know why - who survives a downturning economy? The wealthy. Who actually thrive in a downturning economy? The wealthy, who scoop in and buy everything they can and increase their wealth. It’s almost like they do it on purpose 🤨
The Republican budget will put us in a DEPRESSION as they gut regulation and spending on Main Street.
5-8 years of contraction and mass homelessness in the cities from ppl from rural America as farming is gutted thanks to tariffs and spending reductions
Actually even Trump said the Democrats were better at the economy back when he was a Democrat. He is not really anything...he just wanted power and it was easier to get from Republicans.
That 2007 housing crisis nearly killed me. My husband died, 3 kids in college, my home value dipped 35%. Took years to recover. I hope we're not headed down that road.
Exactly this is their playbook they are forcing a recession so they can purchase undervalued stocks, real estate, and businesses. To flip for profit when the dems take over and resuscitate the economy. Rinse and repeat and people’s well-being be damned.
Excuse me? Dow Jones has gone down almost 3000 points since Trump has been in office. Joe Biden had the highest stock market on history and Trump ruined it within a few months. There is your reason.
Notice, only one democratic president in the group! What does that tell you? Republicans always put money above people!! They only care about themselves, and I really don't think they even care about their family members! I see no evidence of that by the way they vote!
Jon, your stats are terribly misleading. I am sure there are leftists out there stupid enough to believe everything you say, but me, I did my own research and not only did you leave a couple dates (left) out, you forget...
You know Jon, I just looked at the data again, and it seems you're dishonest
My friends in the resistance, please take note, since 2015, of all those who betrayed your country by collaborating with the traitor Trump, from his family members, aides, cabinet members, to valets. In France, we did "beautiful" things to traitors: We beheaded them!
Lol. No. This time the World heads into a Great Depression. The federal cuts by doge alone will do this. Then we have people defaulting on creditcards, on autoleases, on housing credit. Commercial realestate is failling etc. etc..... The world is fucked. We are fucked.
Republicans do it on purpose so the gluttonous rich can buy up stocks and properties then the democrats fix it, their value skyrockets and rinse and repeat
The billionaires own democrats too and most politicians are rich in their own right . It’s why Dems never do anything real to stop it
This will be far far worse than a recession. When Musk eliminates Social Security Medicare and Medicaid we will need to dig mass graves for the elderly and disabled. Sounds more and more like 1939 Germany.
From the end of Nixon's term to the end of Carter's, OPEC quadrupled the price of oil. Imagine if gas went from $3.50/gal to $14/gal what it would do to the economy. Carter warned America about fossil fuels and put thermal solar panels on the WH, which Reagan removed and yelled drill baby drill.
Such a similar look to Conservative power in the UK compared to Labour. The people with money tell us to tighten belts and champion austerity. A more socialist outlook cares for a workforce, bring more taxes into government.
I'm going to sound like one of those old ladies, but the 20-30 something crowd acts like the world began when they were born. Do young people have no interest in what occurred before their time?
Well after just watching 24 minutes of Rachael Maddow, Trump needs to be handcuffed & trotted off to insane asylum. Troops preparing to invade Panama, annex Greenland & Canada has to be 51st st. As a Canadian suck shit Trump.

Republican in White House pretty much guarantees a recession. And worse.

Don't worry, you get a free red hat at the soup kitchens.

His economic literacy is even worse than his actual abilities
Republicans again.
