Would we be in a recession under a Trump second term?

All other things the same coming off covid, Trump wins instead of Biden. What's your honest expectation of where our economy would be under another year and a half of Trump. Remembering in an election year, there's a swampy cohort of all parties actively working against the well being of Americans in an effort to take down Trump.

Would still be democrats fault for using Covid as the focus of a political agenda to destroy the economy on purpose.

Would we have had a downturn? Yes, simply due to factors like inflation.
Would it have been this severe? No, because Trump wouldn’t have done a lot of the stupid shite Biden did like cancelling Keystone which had a long term negative effect on the oil and gas industry.

No, because Trump would have had us back to normal by March 2020. Now maybe New York and California would still be fricked, but we wouldn’t be fricked like this.

I think we'd still see a real estate bubble popping but gas would still be cheap and that fuel price is part of what is driving inflation. There'd be a hell of alot less illegals that we are having to borrow money to pay for their social services.
I don't know if we'd still be in a recession or not, but we sure as hell would be better off.
Also I think the ukraine situation never happens so EU would be better off too.

WE would have some serious inflationary pressure regardless because of all the COVID stimulus but Trump wouldn't be waging a war on fossil fuels, he would be cutting taxes, regulations, securing borders, cutting trade deals that would benefit on-shore manufacturing, cutting government spending, and he wouldn't have passed that ridiculous second spending package that lit the fuse. I don't think Putin moves on Ukraine if Trump were President and the Ukraine war has exacerbated this whole thing.
We would have some inflationary pressures but no I don't think we would have raging inflation that necessitated these rate hikes....I think we have strong economy with full employment and moderately higher interest rates

I don’t know about a technical recession, but you would have had to turn off the cash firehose fairly aggressively, without a doubt to avoid a serious downturn. It’s hard to comprehend the fundamental damage done by revoking 45’s rollbacks of regs and permitting in the energy sector. The current regime’s policies are an insidious cancer that infects all parts of the economy.

Trump is pro-business and pro-America.
Any downturn would have been swiftly kicked in the nuts.

Trump would have put "on hands on deck" to get the supply chain issues cleared. That alone would have helped with inflation and GDP. Xiden doesn't have a clue.

Will never know, but I think it's plausible if not likely. A large reason we are in the mess we are in is because of inflation, and Trump loved printing the shite out of some money in his term. The wild card is Ukraine IMO and I do think it's likely that Trump would have handled that better.

It’s exactly why Trump let the stolen elections occur. He couldn’t handle having a recession tarnish his legacy. Once he knew how fricked the country was going to be, he let the cheating occur, knowing the democrats will be known for this recession. He’ll come back, win, get this country back on track and strengthen his legacy even more.

Doubtful. Trump understands economics. This administration clearly does not.
Posted on 7/28/22 at 10:33 am to Lsuhoohoo
Better question is how many times would they have impeached him in his second term? I'm guessing 50 minimum

The consequences of democrats policies will be felt for a long time.
Until you get an honest media, it won’t matter anyways. They will lie and do everything they can to manipulate peoples’ opinions.
Plus democrats still run the big cities, so it will still be shite in all those areas.

If he kept spending money the way he was, no doubt.

We’d be in trouble but not as bad as we are.
The money printing & Covid would secure that. Whatever excess the Left created with the current illegitimate admin would have been averted & then factor in the corrective measures Trump would have initiated.

This. Completely out of control.

At the end of 2020 our national debt was $26.9 trillion. Of that, Trump was responsible for $6.7 trillion. That's 25% created by Trump. A so called conservative. So, no. I dont think we'd be doing that much better.
