Is there anything this man can’t do?
The man got unemployment under 9% in five months it took Obama Biden 30 months to achieve this wow!
Wow. You Trump supporters really do drink the Kool-Aid. LOL. Let us know how it tastes. If you feel funny, be sure to let the rest of know quickly.
So let me get this straight. You're comparing numbers and recovery time in a depression bought around due to a collapsed housing market and the economic policies by the GWB admin to unemployment bought about by an incompetent response to the pandemic and the economic fallout (most of which wouldn't have been necessary with a competent administration handling it)....and making it more laughable by pointing out that this economy is just recovering jobs furloughed????...and posing that as some kind of accomplishment? Jeez, you Trump supporters really have jumped the shark.
The housing collapse was not due to GWB policies, this was an over-reach by you left-wing nuts to try to give loans to those that previously couldn't afford them. Everyone knows this, except lefties. Do tell how we could have avoided a downturn during this pandemic. The left wanted to shut thing down even longer, which would kill the economy.
Lefties can't this naive.
I pointed that out. Probably wasn't as clear as it should have been. And we can have as many discussions on the origins of the housing collapse as you'd like. Both sides had a hand in that one. But the massive tax cut, bloated budgets, and a few other economic blunders of GWB were like spraying gasoline with a fire hose on a house fire. Right now, the unemployment rate is down because people are being called back to jobs they already had. Not because there are a plethora of new ones. During the 2009-2011 recession, those jobs were lost for good and then companies slowly rebounded and grew. There are jobs that were had in this economy that are probably never coming back. Not to mention a class of people (in the over 50) category that may never be able to hold another job like the one they had before the pandemic.
To say that Trump is a genius for overseeing a reduction in the unemployment rate when it was his response to the virus that caused it in the first place is...well...bullshit.
