Trump Says The Economy Is an A+++++, 3% of Americans Agree

[Lesh]

It is accurate that the initial U.S. job numbers during a period of the Biden administration were significantly revised downward by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). The revisions showed hundreds of thousands of fewer jobs were added than initially reported, leading to political controversy and claims that the original numbers were false or misleading.

Key Details on the Job Data Revisions
Preliminary Annual Revision (August 2024): A preliminary "benchmark" revision for the year ending March 2024 suggested job growth was overstated by 818,000 jobs, or 0.5% of total employment.

Final Revision (September 2025): A later preliminary report indicated the overstatement for a slightly different time period (12 months through March 2025) was even larger, at an estimated 911,000 jobs.

Total Overstatement: Accounting for both the annual benchmark and monthly revisions, some analyses indicate the total number of jobs was overstated by approximately 1.18 million in the year through March (data from 2024/2025).

Comparison: The 2024/2025 downward revisions were described as the largest or one of the largest downward revisions since the 2008-2009 period during the Great Recession.

Tire point being what?

That initial jobs numbers are later adjusted (both down and up) as more information comes in?

Didn’t you post this and declare

“Don’t pick out one product”?

You just “picked out one product”

You could be be more dishonest but you’d have to try really hard

Price Comparison Details
Peak Inflation Period (under Biden): In 2022, food prices overall, including produce, saw the fastest increase in over 40 years, due to factors like supply chain disruptions, energy costs, and the war in Ukraine. While a specific single-month percentage for just produce is not available in the snippets, the overall food-at-home index rose 11.4% that year. The price of specific items like eggs skyrocketed due to an avian flu outbreak.

Total Price Change Under Biden: From January 2021 to early 2025 (Biden's term), the overall price for fruits and vegetables rose about 13.8%. The broader "all food" Consumer Price Index (CPI) rose approximately 23.6% from 2020 to 2024.

Current Prices (as of late 2025): The current price changes are much more modest. As of September 2025, the 12-month change for the fruits and vegetables index was a relatively low 1.3%. The monthly change for fruits and vegetables in September 2025 was flat (0.0%), after a 2% increase in August 2025. Some items like tomatoes and certain fresh vegetables have seen price drops at various points in 2025 due to improved growing conditions.

So a comment made by Biden five years ago affected the amount of oil produced under Trump?

You are dancing. You went from "Biden was bad for energy" to "he could have been better" when pointed out Biden had record output. Give it up.

It continues on, despite your blindness, poseur.

So you managed to prove

A. Prices jumped under Biden because of Covid

B. Prices have NOT come down under Trump and are escalating

Way to go tard

 

[C_Clayton_Jones]

recent polls show 3% of people think the economy is great

Three percent of people lie as much as Trump.

 

[Rogue AI]

For the last ten months liberals predicted economic collapse. Nothing they say should be taken seriously.

The revisions were done under Biden. If they were fake then Trump would have had to revise them with different people and different data. How dumb are you? Biden put out data throughout covid recovery without any issues.

Also they aren’t additive. You have to average them. If I estimate the temperature is 70 degrees every month and it was 71 degrees I am not off 12 degrees. I am off 1 degree.

Sometimes its like trying to communicate to children around here.

And they’re all on this board

What you don't understand is that there is an alternate universe of prices if Kamala Harris would have won and continued Joe Biden's disastrous policies.

1. Gas today is under $3 a gallon, under democrat "war on energy" policies, a lot higher
2. Electricity prices are going up slowly, under democrat "green energy" policies prices would be a lot higher
3. Rents and housing are going up, under democrat's "open borders" housing would be even higher
4. Groceries are going down slowly due to deportation of 2 million illegals, under democrats' open borders prices would be higher.
5. Since ACA, employer healthcare premiums went up 30%, but ACA premiums went up 300%, ACA is a scam.

Trump's energy policies and deportations will lower prices, or at least have them go up much slower than democrat policies.

The question isnt “has the economy collapsed”. The question is how healthy is it? Trump thinks you are all basking in the best economy ever. A+++++. We all know that’s bullshit but glad to know that as long as the economy is mid and getting worse, it’s ok as long as we are not in a depression.

So when your bullshit claims are shown to be false… just claim with no real evidence, that they’d be worse under the other guy

And then throw in #4 and #5, outright lies

So you think the "Law of Supply and Demand" is a lie? Then you are proven wrong.

Biden admin oversaw record oil production. I linked that above.

2. Electricity prices are going up slowly, under democrat "green energy" policies prices would be a lot higher

3. Rents and housing are going up, under democrat's "open borders" housing would be even higher

Fake news. More made up shit when you cant show an improvement you pretend like it would be worse. Guess what? It was better under Biden… otherwise prices would be down. They are up.

4. Groceries are going down slowly due to deportation of 2 million illegals, under democrats' open borders prices would be higher.

Fake news. I linked it above there has been zero trend change in food prices. They aren’t rising as fast as they did under Biden’s last two years. Fast than Biden’s last year.

5. Since ACA, employer healthcare premiums went up 30%, but ACA premiums went up 300%, ACA is a scam.

Prices for healthcare rose the same before and after ACA. You just complained about them more. They are rising more now with the ACA subsidies killed.

Trump's energy policies and deportations will lower prices, or at least have them go up much slower than democrat policies.

Nope. I showed you up thread how none of that is happening.

Sure thing Skippy, moving the goal posts doesn't change the fact you loons have been crying wolf for almost a year. Yet your claims do not match reality. You doom cryers have no credibility.

Trump described the Economy to Politico as A+++++ meanwhile recent polls show 3% of people think the economy is great and Politico's own poll paints a grim picture of the economy from Americans.

Trump has convinced some people up is down, and down is up, but I suspect even he can't convince broke ass Americans they are suddenly doing great because he says so in front of the construction of a gaudy ball room.

What say you? How is the economy doing?

Trump's "A+++++" review of economy clashes with Americans' perceptions

Many Americans are uneasy about their personal financial situation, despite Trump's upbeat self-appraisal.

www.newsweek.com

President Donald Trump on Tuesday credited himself with overcoming the economic "disaster" left by his predecessor and gave his economy an “A+++++” rating, but the experiences of most Americans paint a far gloomier picture of financial conditions in 2025.

Economy

How would you rate economic conditions in this country today -- as excellent, good, only fair, or poor? Right now, do you think that economic conditions in the country as a whole are getting better or getting worse?

Do you feel at all bad that you are hoping and praying that the US economy tanks?

 

[Mac1958]

Nope. I showed you up thread how none of that is happening.

As usual, there's simply no way of knowing what they're being told in their separate ecosystem.

True. But there was no long term plan to keep producing oil and gas. As the oil wells production decreased over time, fossil fuel prices would skyrocket, unless everyone was forced to buy EVs, and that would create a different disaster, "rolling blackouts".

Fake news. More made up shit when you cant show an improvement you pretend like it would be worse. Guess what? It was better under Biden… otherwise prices would be down. They are up.

No one is building new housing, its too expensive. Open borders would mean higher prices due to "supply & demand". CA hasn't even rebuilt houses from their fires yet, a total mess.

Fake news. I linked it above there has been zero trend change in food prices. They aren’t rising as fast as they did under Biden’s last two years. Fast than Biden’s last year.

Trump isn't in office a year yet, and his policies and people are just being approved. Eggs came down but beef prices won't peak until next summer. As more illegals get deported prices should come down.

Prices for healthcare rose the same before and after ACA. You just complained about them more. They are rising more now with the ACA subsidies killed.

True. Both parties are having a hard time dealing with healthcare costs.

Nope. I showed you up thread how none of that is happening.

Not happening yet, but over time Trump's energy policies will have much lower prices than the democrat's "green policies". You can look to the EU if you want proof of that. Their energy costs are extremely high. Trump is doing everything possible to lower energy costs, but even then the 5,000 new AI Data Centers will make energy costs go up.
