Democratic President rebuilds economy, just in time to hand it off to Trump — again
Trump damaged the Obama economy he inherited with his trade war, and now appears poised to repeat that move with the Biden economy.
Summary
President Joe Biden touted his administration’s economic recovery efforts, citing job growth, reduced inflation, and infrastructure investments, as he prepares to hand off a strong economy to Donald Trump.
Biden criticized Trump’s proposed steep tariffs on imports, warning they could harm the economy and reintroduce inflation.
Trump plans tariffs against China, Mexico, and Canada, raising concerns about trade disruptions similar to those seen during his first term.
Economists caution that such policies could quickly reverse recent economic gains and weaken the U.S. economy.

more like stabilize. without the second term to actually make some progress this is going to go in the shitter fast.
People really can’t understand the economy turns like the Titanic. Trump fucked it, but we didn’t see the real effects until Biden’s term. We were heading into another Great Depression, and coupled with the effects of Covid, people massively underestimate how well the economy actually did under Biden.
Trump will coast on the Biden administration’s success for a while, and will take the credit. Once he fully fucks everything (and IF there are fair elections in 2028, which doesn’t seem likely), a future democratic administration will be blamed for the effects of trump’s fuckery. Repeat ad infinitum.
That’s how it’s worked for a century, and uninformed voters will always fall for it.
Nah. It takes much more to build than to burn down. This is why bush senior had to do the things that angered his base. Whats been built in the last four years will fall within 2. Even trumps first term it was actually covid which allowed him to get through it. Obama was not able to really get things good in two after bush jr.s two wars and when trump dropped rates and overheated everything the market was due for a big crash but covid ironically created this wierd condition were it bounced back due to the stimulus of the checks and just that generally the haves did not want to fuck around with that shit going. Everything became about keeping things going. Its gonna be a rough few years coming up.
Are you implying the president's desk does not come with a big green Fix the Economy and a big red Ruin the Economy button?
