Re: Why everyone misses the Trump presidency, including YOU!

The Biden administration has been a nightmare for the American people. When Trump left office we were recovering nicely from the Chyna virus, unemployment was cut in half and dropping, the economy was growing at over 6%, the vaccine was rolled in record time, mortgages were around 3%, real income was growing, gas was cheap, the wall was under construction and illegal immigration was plummeting, the Abraham accords were bringing peace to the middle east, Russia, Iran, North Korea and China were contained and afraid of Trump.

Now we have inflation and record energy costs, the border is wide open with over 7 million illegal aliens flooding into the country, real wages are shrinking, war breaking out across the globe, personal debt is at record highs, mortgages are over 7%, the Chinese are flying spy balloons over the country and building bioweapon labs in America and the Biden administration is arresting their political opponents. From top to bottom the Biden administration has been a catastrophe for America and the world.

Unfortunately for Dead Man Walking, Americans have awakened and they recall fondly the Trump era, and they want it back!

Trump in a LANDSLIDE, MAGA!! A few mean tweets are worth saving our country from the Donkey Fascists that have destroyed our democracy in just three years! The irony is stunning.

We have a strong economy today, no matter how desperately the MAGA team wish it weren't so. And everyone remembers that this country was in tatters from the pandemic when Trump left office. Biden had to pick up the pieces from an absolute disaster in terms of economics, and health. But things are going much better now:

Consumer sentiment is very high right now.

Inflation is down almost to the 2% target (it was caused by supply shocks from the pandemic, not by joe biden). And this was done without job-losses, with the recession that MAGA-heads were "sure" we'd have:

Unemployment is very low, at 3.7% (Biden inherited over 6% from Trump):

Employment-to-population rate for prime-age 25-54 is very strong at above 80%:

Job growth has been strong, better than during the so-called "Trump boom":

The stock market is very strong:

And GDP growth has been strong. Under Trump we never had a single year where we even achieved 3% GDP growth. We've had that and then some since Trump left office:

Uninsured rates are at historic lows, recently at 7.7%, which is the lowest in our history:

Wages are outpacing inflation (even though MAGA won't admit it):

As for the pandemic, everyone knows that the vaccine rollout mostly occurred after Trump left office, as it was the Biden team that was responsible for the vast majority of that rollout. The US was a laughingstock during the pandemic. But we've come out of it, and are in a good economy right now, stronger than than anything we saw during the Trump presidency.

Oh, BTW, all this stuff about China and Russia: Our support of Ukraine has been critical at keeping Russia pinned down. Putin mis-calculated and is now bogged down in a war that will eventually drive his hermit kingdom into the ground. And China is dealing with very tough trade sanctions from Biden that are much stronger and more effective than anything Trump ever dreamed of. And they are watching our support of Ukraine very closely, as that is a deterrent to any of their Taiwan ambitions. This stuff about the US being weak is nonsense.
