    Since this thread is about Trump and the economy, I have to ask a question. What exactly did Trump do that was bad for the US economy. Yeah, yeah, coronavirus shutdowns, but he was very much against shutting down the economy. Constantly said the virus wasn't as bad as you think it is because he didn't want to shut down the economy. So back to my question; what did he do that was so bad for the economy? Is putting tariffs on Chinese goods bad? Is trying to bring jobs back to America bad? Sure, we all love cheap merchandise but when we send jobs overseas and buy cheaper products from other countries we increase our trade deficit. Isn't that bad? Isn't that something that Trump was actually trying to fix?

    I'll be honest, my economics is not up to par, so when it comes to things like trade deficits and overseas jobs I don't know how it really affects our economy. But the general understanding I have is that it isn't favorable.

    The China virus created in the Wuhan Lab from monies sent by Obama/Biden is the only reason for our troubled economy.

    But don't worry, Biden is here to save the day!

    Or your can buy a Powerball or Mega Millions ticket!!!

    "Blame" is designed to distract. We as a country have shown our arrogance, and inability to do anything. All the righties and their "but ma fweedoms" BS is why we are where we are today. Almost a year in, and we are still INCREASING cases and deaths. But dont worry, you still have a freedom to die from it, because the virus doesn't care how "free" you are.

    LOL. Yea, they haven't had a single case since last February because they wear masks. Sounds logical
    We should do what they did. Just disappear people that come out of their house without permission.

    The SOA has forced their citizens to wear masks as well, and guess what, you are claiming that the SOA has 400k deaths from covid (a lie) while China only has 4.5k (also a lie). The case numbers are lies as well.

    Masks do not stop viruses. Their pores are far too large to stop the much smaller viruses.

    They also sealed people in their homes under the threat of death. You really think we could ever do that in the United States?

    They LIED, just as they've lied about their internment camps in Xinjiang.

    Do you believe those are "vocational training centers", too? :roll:

    So do we, and cases are surging...

    Not true at all. Cant stand Trump, but our economy is in sh*thole because of and only because of the FED,, and other Globalists. Trump tried to bring all their power into his own, not happening. Yet, Americans fight between each other while the FED controls the politicians to put more money and power into their hands. Right now, as I type, pre- planned questions are thrown at Janet Yellen by Democrats and republicans. All about SMALL things, women in workforce, Corona, blah blah while they print trillions and put the assets into their pockets. We have not had a +GDP in years. The only reason it doesnt show negative is the fact the govt. prints MORE money and adds their spending to GDP.

    This is all falling apart as a fast rate, and yet, none of it shows on the exterior. Prices continue to go up and Janet Yellen, the FED, all the Globalist couldn't give a rats ass.

    I can't speak for how it's going another areas but I can tell you that in my area we actually wish things would slow down it's freaking crazy right now. We are crushing it!

    Shout out to NY, IL, MI, NJ former residents for moving here! Our economy is on a roll.

    Second shout out to Ron Desantis, Florida's man of the year!

    No country in the world has handled Covid as badly as we have. And it would appear that operation Warp Speed is another in the long line of abortions.

    I wear a mask when in public. I went to the grocery store, where everyone was wearing a mask in public.

    I got corona virus.

    Shocker indeed.

    Nah blaming the CHINERS and WHO is the right thing to do.. All those death world wide is because they chose to allow free travel world wide when they knew the virus was being transmitted human to human is 2019..

    But that's sacrilege for the DNC to admit.. Far as I'm concerned, evidence proves that all these U.S. deaths are the product of the DNC plan to topple Trump. I also think they don't give a "Squat and a Drop" about how many have died and will die because of their sacrificial plan for power..

    The DNC is actually a bigger threat to humanity then every and all virus that have plagued humanity!

    You seriously believe China is going to tell the truth about their economy? Trump may have done very little but Biden's plan will force even more businesses to shut down.

    This is the kind of idea that cost 400,000 American lives.

    It's a primarily Republican denial of ALL responsibility for taking care of US citizens.

    And your medical degree is from where ?

    Masks are NOT a binary. Masks LIMIT the spread.

    Stop with the "their pores are much too large.....". Thats just ridiculous. Thats why the government recommends N95 masks
