Which is more amazing: the fact that America has vastly outperformed other advanced economies without higher inflation, or the fact that Biden gets no credit?

I know this is true because Republicans have been saying it for my entire life!
average people with $1,400 stimulate the economy because they never issued any stock to buy back instead.
If Trump wins, he'll immediately take credit for the economy, ignoring all data and the media will mostly repeat the lie
If Harris wins, people will say Biden made the economy good, and the moment it crashes Harris will be blamed
And -- just curious speculation here -- would you ever work for such an organization?
the graph on the right shows prices have gone up 20% higher than they were before he was president.
maybe after Sputnik, or in the 1820s ?
and surely you know full well that salience beats facts every time; eg the Times article today on car insurance
Exhibit A: Precisely zero major media outlets covered last week's report on rising real weekly wages. https://bsky.app/profile/demdifference.bsky.social/post/3l6puccml7625
Kamala Harris is two points ahead of him in the polls, so Mr Trump says she's a slut, she's a commo (dead cattin').
"In 2021, there were 26.4 million years of life lost due to excess US mortality relative to peer nations"

We can see on here folks still poking holes, who are probably on his side.
How can you not vote for this guy???
Yet ppl still rush from all parts of the world to be part of that economy (and contribute to it).
Amazing no?
we moved to germany a little over a year ago and are much happier.
It's ok to have 2% inflation if salaries also rise by 2%.
US growth is fueled by immigration and unemployment still hovers over 4% (🇩🇪 6%) all this on a backdrop of the Fed balance sheet improving. So your 0.2% (🇩🇪 -0.2%) growth scenario can only be hypothetical
All economies, always, will leave some people behind. This economy, though has particularly benefitted people in the lower tiers.

"Wage rates remain insufficient for individuals and families working to make ends meet. Nowhere can a worker at the 10th percentile of the wage distribution earn enough to meet a basic family budget."
Pple at the bottom end hvnt been pd enough, inequality has been building for 50 yrs, & Biden didn't cure that ill. That is not why pple don't credit Biden for an overall good economy.
Its just a shame some Americans still believe the propaganda GOP are good at money despite all evidence to the contrary.
Dems always do better.

Also dammit, when will Americans stop buying the GOP two Santa Theory. (Where the plan is to 'shoot' dems 'Santa' by running up debt to prevent positive social change)
