The reason I prefer to avoid economic issues is that it is one where there can never be agreement. I avoid that, too. But, you see, I wasn't engaging in any economic issues. I don't care what Ginrich did or didn't do or the "dynamics of unemployment." I wasn't cheering for anyone or dissing anyone nor was I making any value judgments. You said that Trump's economy was the best and that is clearly not correct. I simply demonstrated the error. That's all. There is a right and wrong answer here. Comparing economies is fine, but you really cannot possibly think that as a metric for performing the performance of two economies the consequences of having shut down the economy... I subsequently mentioned that Trump's economy was better than Obama's before it fell off the cliff with covid. Message 33348375 But that's beside the point. Here's the point, just as I posted previously: There's nothing complicated nor political about that. Simple fact. If you want to make an excuse for Trump's cliff, fine. This shows the before and after: You can clearly see that Trump's 2.2%-3%, if you discount the cliff, is less than Clinton's results. Nearly 4 is greater than two and a half. That is an absolute fact. You can't reasonably argue it.
