(7,635 posts)we have decades of evidence showing that the economy and job market always fare better under democrats yet the common belief that republicans are better at managing it and democrats squander it is still strong.
We suck at messaging , of course it's partly because the gop played the long game and established a network of radio stations and now TV to spread their nonsense completely drowning our message.

'Scumbag EX-President Trump', worst job creation by a president ever.
I can't even bring myself to spell his name or mention his name or even watch his numerous videos (most of which are full of the stupid things he's done, etc.). I am just sick of him.

(6,841 posts)It looks like even if Biden were to have zero jobs created during the rest of his first term of presidency, he'd still have over 200,000 per month, far ahead of ALL the Republicans in monthly job creation.
That's impressive and not bad for a "failed, unpopular and helplessly flailing president".

And, of course, Trump is in the Dumpster.

(11,258 posts)Trumps Covid failure set up Bidens outsized growth where Biden didnt have to do much outside of a reasonably competent vaccine program (not a high bar really).
Trumps failures (which included unnecessarily pressuring Jerome Powell to cut rates to boost the stock market to bubbly heights) also set up the inflation disaster and market mini-crash that Biden is taking the heat for.

him with the jobs. The inflation is significantly due to trump, but also world affairs with Russias invasion and Chinas over the top zero Covid approach crushing supply chains.

(7,332 posts)that were not paid for therefore running the deficit through the roof thats why we have an inflation problem, President Biden is having to clean up the mess.

(11,258 posts)War in Russia, supply chain disasters in China, and pent up demand from consumers who couldnt spend for a couple years are the cause. Also Powell playing it fast and loose partly under pressure from trump caused this. Powell was slow to take inflation seriously too. He has a lot of the blame as well.
The supply chain disasters and pent up demand are mostly on trump since he did his best to prolong Covid causing all the extended lockdowns and what not. Biden has to clean that up and has a ways to go.
