No we wouldn't unless we could show polices Trump put in place that were responsible for it. What did Dementia do to take credit for the unemployment rate? He paid people to sit home until the end of September. Then when people had to go back to work, you are giving him credit? That's like giving a bank robber credit for returning the money he stole from the bank in the first place.
We gave Trump credit for the economy because he lowered business taxes to their lowest level in history. He not only removed costly regulation, but created policy that for every new business regulation made, two had to be removed in it's place. He got rid of Commie Care fines and restrictions. He greatly reduced people invading our country and then getting jobs here. It eventually led to us having a million more jobs than Americans who could work them.
If Trump just sat his ass in the White House and took credit for an economy he had nothing to do with, then you'd have a point.
Bullshit. Once again Ray, you prove yourself to be an economic idiot, believing the lies and bullshit Donald Trump fed you. And denying that Biden did "nothing" to help unemployment after passage of the American Rescue Act, the Child Tax Credit, and the Infrastructure Bill is simply denial of reality.
You gave Trump credit for Obama's economy, which you claimed was the worst recovery in history when Obama was in office, despite Trump having done NOTHING to increase employment, GDP, or trade in his first year in office, prior to passing the tax cut. Trump spent his first year trying, and failing, to repeal the Affordable Care Act, and passing his tax cut.
Trump's tax cuts failed to produce any real jobs. 2018 had the highest pre-covid job creation of his Presidency, mostly on the back of Trump's outrageous spending, and it was still lower than Obama's job numbers from 2016. Obama managed to increase jobs and GDP, while the House and Senate did everything possible to stifle growth and spending.
As for cutting regulations, no jobs were created by doing so. Despite gutting regulations on coal mining and the pollution from coal fired plants, jobs in coal and in manufacturing continued to decline. The ONLY effect of Trump cutting environmental regulations was the degradation of air and water quality across the USA, and an increase in greenhouse gasses.
As for Trump's immigration policy, Trump INCREASED illegal immigration to its highest levels in 30 years. He declared a National Emergency on the Southern Border in 2019 as a result of this increase.
The president’s decision incited instant condemnation from Democrats, who called it an unconstitutional abuse of his authority and vowed to overturn it with Republican support.

What President Biden did to take credit for the unemployment rate is to pass the American Rescue Plan and the Child Tax Benefit which put thousands of dollars into the hands of American taxpayers, allowing them to pay off debts, and begin to restock their homes with clothing, electronics and other consumer goods, with their household savings during the pandemic. Sales of all consumer goods, electronics, and cars are at an all time high was a result.
The Child Tax Credit is one of the nation’s strongest tools to provide tens of millions of families with some support and breathing room while raising children. It has also being shown to be one of the most effective tools ever for lowering child poverty. Enacted in 1997, the credit currently...

But keep pretending Trump wasn't a total disaster, and Biden isn't doing anything, Ray. It makes you look like a the gullible shill the Republican bullshit machine that you truly are.
