They did the same with Obama. Blamed him for an economy that he inherited from Bush. Then when Trump came around he boasted about how great the economy was... you know, the one he inherited from Obama.
That's why it annoys me any time someone suggests friendship and/or centrism with conservatives. They literally don't care about the truth, even what words mean. There is no "reasonable" discussion to be had; half of their opinions are literally because of belief in the supernatural, and the other half is Dunning-Kruger economics.
It's quite the opposite in many cases. Their voters have no clue about what is going on in most cases. The only thing they know is what they hear from their politicians on their "news" channels or from memes on Facebook.
Their voters have absolutely no idea its bullshit. They literally have no idea what's going on. If you watch the right wing propaganda for even a day, not a single piece of real information will be presented. It's just garbage.
Exact same thing this time around. Covid happened, Trump bumbled it and also Congress gave away 950 billion mainly to people who didn't need it, Fed lowered interest rates to zero... so Biden inherited rampant inflation and massive home price increases, and according to Conservatives, it's the 'Biden economy'. Of course they can never name anything they think Biden did to cause it.
Its quite literally Obama's fault 45 looked so good. Obama's presidency is responsible for starting the largest/longest bull run in the history of the stock market, which 45 ended due to utterly fumbling the pandemic, but can now blame Biden for since he has to deal with all the economic fallout from 45's term in office. While all 45 had to deal with was a humming economy he still ran into the ground. Not saying what Obama did for the economy was good for the country, just that it was good for what is considered 'economic health' by the majority of the US population.
