Summary
Donald Trump claims he inherited an economic disaster from Joe Biden, but key economic data contradicts him.
When Biden left office, unemployment was 4.1%, inflation had dropped to 2.9%, and GDP growth was strong. Job growth under Biden outpaced Trump’s tenure, and manufacturing saw major gains.
While inflation spiked due to global events, the economy remained resilient. Wall Street performed well under Biden but has struggled under Trump’s tariff policies.
Economists widely reject Trump’s narrative, calling Biden’s economy one of the strongest post-pandemic recoveries.
The reality is that both of these people are using the same phony metrics to further enrich the already extremely privileged.
Neither of them is talking about 4-day week, minimum wage, healthy environment, etc. They don’t actually give a shit about improving normal people’s lives. That’s actually opposed to their bullshit scheme.
