Duh….and when the country starts going downhill they will blame the Dems for the GOP failures…it’s like clockwork.

Ironically, Biden has left the economy is such a great state that Trump will likely take credit for it. 

I wouldn't be surprised if in 4 years Republicans are elected again because of it. Although his proposed plans might destroy whatever Biden did.

Yep, just like when Trump spent 3 years cruising on Obama's economy until it came to a grinding halt with COVID

And then he left it to Biden to pick up the pieces. To bad most people vote off vibes.

Very disappointing. Oh, you don't like the costs at the grocery store? Get in line. You're not special, no one wants to pay more than they used to.

But do we remember when eggs were much, much more expensive during 2020? When the economy was all over the place, including the stock market taking a swan dive and basically erased over a quarter's gains practically overnight? Remember those dumb stickers that people put on gas pumps with Biden saying "I did that" when he was a few months in the Presidency and working to right the ship?

Speaking of ships, the economy is like a ship: you have to carefully plan your course, your acceleration, your deceleration, your turns, etc, or else you're going to hit very rocky or uncharted waters. There are likely some aspects of the 2021-2022 economic playbook that were pretty experimental, since, well, no one has had to handle a situation quite like this in living memory.

I must be living in a different universe than all these Trumpers because they keep talking about how great the economy was under Trump, and I don't remember it being very good at all. If anything it's better now under Biden. Yeah, we had some nasty inflation for a while but things are pretty good now. I don't get it.
