Every recession we’ve had has been under a Republican president and there are still people that think that Republicans are more fiscally responsible. 😂

Did we not just spend 4 years under Biden needing to listen about how the economy wasn’t doing great because of the “lag” that happens after previous administrations? This was talking point #1 for 4 years

US Post-COVID recovery > literally the entire world. And if you want an economic discussion on it, it’s both yes and no. 3/5 stimulus checks were passed by Congress under Trump. Stimulus checks are inflationary by design bc they spur economic growth. We probably did one or two too many rounds. The other reason was the small business loan, for which there was a lot of fraud happening.

Businesspeople, literally tons of random guys, and politicians on both sides of the isle (Santos and Crockett) committed this fraud on a pretty large scale. If you were to walk into a federal prison, if their charge isn’t meth, chances are the charge is SBL fraud. So take an inflationary but economically-stimulating program and add rampant fraud and you’ve got worse inflation. These are both from Trump 1st term AND Biden
