  39.  @michaelstark777  Better now with that crazy, lazy, dangerous fat Trump out of the White House. . Trump inherited a good economy and really didn't accomplish much in that area. A 1.2% decline in unemployment from where Obama left it to Trump's "50 year low" was nothing, but Trump had to brag about it. US manufacturing went into a recession in 2019 and Trump's tariffs were a disaster. As far as immigration, Trump had nothing under control. 2021 under Biden was a record year for border arrests and detentions. Everything else you mention-- inflation, food and gas prices-- have nothing to do with who is the US president. They're global problems that, as always with inflation and related price increases, are temporary. Inflation and high prices are largely the result of the pandemic and the global recovery from it. Oil prices are a good example, as are the airline staffing shortages. Companies scaled back and in many cases are still ramping up, particularly oil refineries. Inflation under Reagan was just as high, the result largely of the increase in oil prices. Was that Reagan's fault? The head of the Federal Reserve, appointed by Carter, raised interest rates to 20% to curb inflation. It worked but would be impossible now because the country and US consumers are carrying too much debt. Many current economic problems can be traced to the Fed's imposing zero or near zero interest rates for too long to keep the stock market and the economy floating. It's all built on debt and will come crashing down at some point. As far as that national debt, please don't try to put that solely on democrats. Trump did the same thing Reagan did-- cut taxes while increasing spending. That's always a recipe for disaster as far as ballooning the debt. Teh US went from being the biggest creditor nation in the world to the biggest debtor under Reagan. Now it's a broke ass embarrassment of a country surviving on debt just like a stupid American consumer who piles up credit card debt year after year then wonders why he's in such a hole.
