There's nothing Biden can even point to as a success thus far, competing for one of the worst runs as President in history. As a country, we should be extremely embarrassed that he is even considered re-running, let alone actually doing it. Very well said... You don’t really have to go back too far. Bush years were a much bigger disaster. Attacked the wrong nation, 20 years there.

The Real timschochet 6,769 Posted April 25, 2023 49 minutes ago, Hardcore troubadour said: 2017-2019 were three of the best consecutive years in our nations history. Peace and prosperity ruled the land. During those 3 years, the only significant economic actions that Trump took was to: 1. Cut taxes on large corporations while effectively raise taxes on the middle class. 2. Impose tariffs on trade, particularly on China, particularly on US agriculture. I believe these actions severely weakened the US economy, though it took a few years to show. That is because ALL Presidential changes to the economy take a few years to show. The truth is, the economic prosperity you described above are the result of Obama’s policies, not Trump, (specifically Obama’s economic recovery and budget reductions from the previous, high spending Bush administration.) Likewise, we will see the results of Biden’s economic policies not now but in the next 4 years, whether he is re-elected or not. I expect they will be positive but we’ll see. If you disagree with this analysis please explain specifically what I got wrong and how. TIA Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Whatever tax break you received personally did not occur until 2019, and by then all of the advantages you think you were given were already erased by the awful trade policies.

RLLD 4,230 Posted April 25, 2023 Boring. I still hope that Desantis is able to secure the nomination. That being said, no one seems to be mentioning that Biden's approval is so very low. Isn't it interesting that the clear lack of support for him is not concerning to Democrats. And we do not wonder why? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And most citizens didn’t keep more of their own money in Trump’s tax plan. You think they did because of the immediate child benefit increase. But check out the plan over 10 years and you’ll see that you’re actually paying more in than you did before. It was a scam and you fell for it. Congrats?
