Trump was spending even before Covid was a thing. He was President in 2020. He deserves all of the blame. He was in change and fumbled the ball and it cost him the election in 2020. Paying people to sit at home and not work and allowing Fauci and Birx to take over policy for the country was fricking stupid to do but Trump did it anyway.


Pretty sure that spending was more than just the executive office, during a pandemic none the less controlled by evil aholes.

i was down voted to no end for asking a similar question on the money board. stock market is rallying, but why? Houses and cars not selling because of high prices and interest rates. Good employees are hard to find.



T-boy is bragging about the investor economy which is booming because its built on debt.

The worker economy has been destroyed by immigration. T-boy doesnt care about workers, or managers.

Just his investment account built on the labor of others.

So when it crashes because the upper has to be paid at some point that’s ok as long as you get yours?


People are hurting financially now more than ever. Wages are lagging way behind inflation and that’s before you consider shrinkflation.

Trump kept signing record level bill after bill and whining no one was reading them.

Why didnt he read it?

Trumps economics are Bidens economics
. Both are built on the back of borrowed money which cause inflation.

Both are basically practicing Modern Monetary Theory.

Trump wanted even more stimulus than was given out. Congress wouldn't allow it. That's a fact.

As long as you are making money it's OK for the country to go to crap. Screw everyone else. Glad you are happy (and self centered).

The people struggling are the ones who have taken credit card debt to record highs. They have no investments so that number is meaningless to them. And BTW - I seriously doubt the 24% number.

The Democrats dilemma. Their usual voting base does not have this 24% gain. This is all fine and dandy for the white college educated middle upper class, but your average black or hispanic voter is getting all the higher prices and none of the benefits of the stock market. Which is why Biden is polling at historically low rates among those groups.

Right. Food prices dont affect people like T-boy like they to Leshanta and Juan.

But T-boy dont care. He came out slightly ahead (or he thinks he did)

You sir, are a liar.

No doubt it’s been better the last 12 months (you are still lying about 24%) But go ahead and do me the last 36 months.

That money you lost during that time….you NEVER make up. EVER.

AND THAT IS JOE BIDEN’s FAULT!

Fair. Biden is the president of Wall Street, not Main Street.

Those with the luxury to invest are doing better than those who work paycheck to paycheck. Minus the fact that the 24% you speak of is ~15% when you take into account the purchasing power you’ve lost the last three years. But I think you knew that already.

The rank and file Democrat is too stupid to realize that progressive politics fricks them over and helps the wealthy.

Its a "feel good protection racket."

stocks are doing pretty well. I don’t think the economy is as bad as some people want it to be. But I also think if the Biden administration got out of the way it could be much better.

Spoken like someone who isn't invested in the market. 24% gain(s) is not out of the question recently depending on what he is invested in.
