Trump even with unprecedented deficit spending during a time of global growth still couldn’t top the rate of jobs created under Obama’s final years. “I take no responsibility “ is Trump’s glorious leadership during a pandemic he downplayed and continues to downplay. We have more dead and economic damage because of Trump.


In an unprecedented crisis, Trump has overseen in the last 3 months three consecutive months of the greatest monthly job growth ever recorded. In spite of half the states locked down by Democrat governors just to hurt him and influence the November election. That DOESN'T erase that for Trump's first 3 years he created the best economic growth in 50 years.

The deficits were because of a Democrat-controlled House that refused to give him funds to rebuild our military, and extorted $900 billion in additional liberal spending in exchange for the 700 billion he demanded for Dems to pass a House spending bill to rebuild our Obama-destroyed military. So once again, what you blame Trump for is in fact specifically caused by the Democrats. And then Dems ironically use it as a talking point blame Trump. A lying narrative that is carried and fronted by the 93% anti-Trump Newspeak liberal media.

And once again, if Trump quantifiably has the best economic performance statistics in 50 years, those are clearly higher numbers than in any of Obama's 8 years.
You front that lying narrative of "Obama has higher growth than Trump" by ignoring the massive job losses in the millions in Obama's first 3 years.
When Trump was elected, even before he was inaugurated, the stock market dramatically rose in anticipation of policies of Trump that were known would stimulate jobs growth. THE OPPOSITE happened when Obama was elected, the economy that was already entering recession TANKED EVEN MORE in anticipation of the known regulation and "punish capitalism" policy that Obama had promised while campaigning! And the economy continued to plummet for the first three years of Obama's presidency, and did not improve almost immediately, as it did in Trump's first year.

So yeah, if you shave the numbers and only look at the last 5 of Obama's 8 years, you can front the lying narrative that Obama "created more jobs", by ignoring that about 2.9 million of those jobs were just regaining the millions of jobs lost during Obama's first 3 years. But if you look at the net jobs growth over Obama's entire 8 years, that false narrative of "Obama created more jobs than Trump" is absolutely not true.

It's still hilarious to me how in W. Bush's last few months in 2008, the liberal media was selling the narrative "the worst recession since the great depression" talking points to help Obama win.
And then as soon as Obama was inaugurated, and the numbers ACTUALLY WENT DOWN EVEN MORE, AND CONTINUED TO GO DOWN, FOR THREE YEARS INTO OBAMA'S PRESIDENCY that same Newspeak media was selling the narrative "Ohh we're already in economic recovery and we just don't know it yet, unemployment is just a lagging indicator!"

The ironies abound.

    Liberals who bemoan discrimination, intolerance, restraint of Constitutional freedoms, and promotion of hatred toward various abberant minorities, have absolutely no problem with discriminating against, being intolerant of, restricting Constitutional freedoms of, and directing hate-filled scapegoat rhetoric against conservatives.

    EXACTLY what they accuse Republicans/conservatives of doing, is EXACTLY what liberals/Democrats do themselves, to those who oppose their beliefs.
