I'm as left as you get and wouldn't say the economy sucked under Trump. If you draw lines on unemployment and GDP graphis, you would see most of that growth was started under the previous administration and just continued under Trump. What Trump and GOP accomplished was giant tax cuts(unsustainable) for corporate and the upper levels, that gave the economy a nitro like boost that inevitably wears off quickly and takes it toll on the engine---in even more national debt.
People really need to look at the economy like they are looking at a giant ship like the Titanic. It doesn't move quickly, it doesn't stop or turn on a dime, but can be sunk by a catastrophic event(covid, housing crisis). The passage of Chips, Inflation Reduction a couple of years ago are starting to take effect now. Just like turning a giant ship, it's not a fast process.
