Only because they changed the meaning of what a recession is so Biden didn't have one. Negative quarters in a row absolutely occurred under Biden

Yet, Obama had the great recession with a double dip.

At least, Clinton had claimed the dot.com boom and made the sun rise in the morning!

Well, when you have the democrats in charge, they throw the peoples money around like a drunken frat kid with his dad's credit card.

That spending in turn (as we have seen with the Biden admin) props up the economy until the adults try to curb some of the recklessness.

Joe Biden presided over a recession that they refused to name as such.

Last 3 -

2001 - 911/dot-com bubble

2008 - subprime housing bubble (started in 1990s with Dem rule changes to lending)

2020 - COVID

and the "new jobs" was mainly a rebound after the 2008 financial crisis and O taking over just as the bottom was reached and 2020 with Biden taken over just after the bottom...

most of these jobs were rebound not "created" jobs

I mean there was but Scumbag is implying that 911, the housing crisis, and Covid were the fault of the presidents in office when those things happened. It’s WILDLY dishonest

Didn’t they change the definition of recession when Biden was in office?

the one under George W Bush was the fault of the sub prime loan bubble, which was primarily perpetrated by Democrats.


That...and let's face it. The economy does tend to be cyclical. If someone is President for two terms, eight years in a row, chances are very good of some sort of recession during their tenure. Clinton, Bush II and Obama all had a downturn during their time.

They really do. I don't know what he's paying them to re-brand his image and prep him for a run in 2028, but Newsom is coming across as crazy and unhinged.

When you drive a car and wear out the engine the one’s having to fix may take a bit before the next pubescent driver gets in and starts the next problem. Reagan fixed Carter, Bush couldn’t fix Clinton’s as the banking nightmare in late 90’s stewed a bit before the explosion with the added bonus of jet fuel after 9/11 money spending. Obama magic wand never could work even with another 10 trillion spending in which Trump was looking great in waving his wand till the sudden miraculous onslaught of covid and his spending but still held things together without any serious inflationary pressure. Biden handlers knew nothing about repairing economy but rather focused on destruction of. Trump’s new term in 7 months has applied more strength to the economy than 4 years of Biden’s turmoil. Please explain again how democrats fix republicans breakage

“96% of jobs creates under democrats”

To me, the translation is that democrats create a bunch of government jobs which inflates those numbers, then republicans get in office and have to enact policies to increase private sector jobs in order to pay the salaries of all the new public sector jobs. Growth policies don’t happen overnight or without pushback from the freeloaders.

This IDIOT is wasting his time. Virtue-signaling left-wing loons who vote in Democrat Party primaries aren't going to choose him. The Dem Party Establishment would have to cheat their asses off in order for him to be the 2028 nominee.
