Yea a great economy, lowest unemployment in 50 years (particularly for minorities), energy independence and rising wages across all incomes is definitely a step back from the spiking inflation, out of control gas prices and stagnant wages we have now

See this is the manipulation I'm talking about. Every point you made is objectively false or misleading.

The 'economy' is a relative idea. For the lower/middle classes during Trumps pres, the economy was horrible. No upward mobility for employment, businesses going stale, I moved during this time to one of the most conservative states and you saw the exact same thing even before the pandemic. Empty buildings, reluctance to hire, stagnant wages.

Unemployment was already dropping in the US since the early 2010's and the continued trend towards low 'unemployment' was unrelated to the trump presidency. Not to mention that 'Unemployment' is just a metric of people collecting 'unemployment' and not an actual metric of who don't have a job. You can change the unemployment qualifications to kick 2 million people off of it and suddenly you have 'LOWEST UNEMPLOYMENT EVER' it's just another manipulative trick they use to keep you in the herd while not helping.

Gas prices always fluctuate, last year they were the lowest we've seen in over 10 years, and rebounded once again after the pandemic subsided. So moot point there.

Wages were stagnant through the entire trump presidency and have BOOMED since Biden took office and fixed the pandemic shitstorm, in Montana they are advertising paying $14 an hour at TACO BELL.

You don't live in reality Conan, pay attention to the world around you.

All good things under president I don't like are illusions, all good things under president I like are totally attributable to him 100%

Welcome to the discussion. I see you created an account to participate and this is your first post!

Your sentiment I fundamentally agree with. Though I voted for the ice cream man, it wasn't because I liked him. I on a human level could not stand Trump, and the mania that surrounds him is a cult of personality divorced from reality and terrifies me as an american.

What do you mean? This is actually a debate for the next candidates for 2024, sit back I’m wondering where this is actually going to go.
