Why because the US economy grew over 6% in his first quarter in charge?

@Tim111-i7d The data is from the same independent source that President Trump himself quoted from and used during his 4 years in office, the US Dept of Commerce. If the data is stupid now, then it was stupid when he said it. Let me explain the data for you again this is the GDP growth for the first quarter only of 2021 and was 6.4% when compared to the average annual growth over the last 10 years of around 3% is reasonably good. This is just economic fact.

You do understand he has suffered from a severe stutter since early childhood that required significant speech therapy. This is common public knowledge

@LookingTheBest No, the reason is Sky news has pathetically low ratings in Australia and has chosen to attract right wing conservative subscriptions in the US via YouTube by feeding off the idea President Biden is cognitively impaired, and it has worked a treat. They have been completely sucked in.

@falcor1969 Not a trained doctor, however at 78 I expect there would be some loss of function. When Trump was president there were all manner of commentators and doctors casting doubts on Trumps intellectual capacity did you believe them? Or is it just a one way street bias against Biden and you never questions Trump intellectual capacity?
1
@falcor1969 At last a sensible and reasonable reply. Yes I agree to a certain extent, Biden was born with or developed a severe speech impediment, only significant therapy enabled him to reduce his stutter, it is something he has had since childhood it is absolutely no indicator of cognitive decline, however he is 78 and I expect he forgets things I'm 60 and I know I do. He has a clever and able group of people around him the US will be fine.

politicallyinsensitive If you lived in reality you would know that Biden had a severe speech impediment as a child that required significant therapy to reduce, a stutter which he has always had is, repeat is, no indicator of cognitive ability. If a child like myself is able to know this then I would have assumed a half literate adult would to.

@falcor1969 Sorry I didn't mean to imply you hadn't been sensible, it is just so many other people replied to my comment with straight out abuse or just absolute rubbish . Not that it worries me but it is nice to have a reasoned discussion with someone occasionally. Once you hit some of these gooses with facts they quickly go away.

@falcor1969 Don't get me wrong in no way do I think Biden is mr perfect, and at 78 is not at the top of his game and some of his and or Democrat policies are problematic ie the fiscal spend looks like it may lead to inflation problems. Yes your right no vaccine is 100% effective and he shouldn't have implied that, and no medical professional would have told him that and your right he has probably misunderstood what he was told. As for the Delta strain it certainly appears to be more contagious, but I think because larger and larger amounts of people are being vaccinated that may be a reason why the morbidity rate is lower.

@falcor1969 I tried but couldn't get them to work. I don't have a Facebook account so that might be it. As far as vaccines go I am in favour. Vaccines have been successfully used since the late 18th Century on numerous viruses Smallpox, Polio, MMR, HPV, and others. It is in part why the average life span went from approx 50 in the mid 18th century to 80 now, depending on where you live. Medical science has been a wonder of modern civilisation.

@alanakafang6143 So do you blame the recession last year on President Trump?
1
@farmerjohn6526 So by that logic President Trump was responsible for the recession last year.
1
R D So by that logic how far into the Trump administrations four year term do you account the GDP growth to the previous Obama administration? Not so clued up now are you, or how do you account for the recession during the Trump administration was that DJT fault, or do you just credit him with the recovery. What is obvious is you have little understanding of GDP data, almost I would say clueless.
1
@nicolettakouris Measuring GDP is the international standard used to measure growth. So you understand the average annual growth over the last three years of Obama was 2.3% and under the first three years of Trump an little better at 2.5% in 2020 the US went into recession and then quickly recovered. The last two quarters have had a GDP growth of 4.3 and 6.4 in the last two quarters which is well above the last 6 years average. This is just a fact from a simple reading of the economic data.
1
@LotusKai1992 This simply isn't true according to the economic data. The US recovered from the recession last year with an annual growth of 4% Yes it went backwards approx 38% but bounced back about 40% in the year. The current growth under Biden should fairly be attributed to him as was the economic growth under Trump. If your suggesting Trump should get the credit then how long into the Trump administration do you credit the economic growth to the previous Obama administration by your logic.

@1solosoldier Trump is on the public record during one of his speechs just recently explaining that when polls were against him he called them fake and when they favoured him he called them great. You have been taken in by a clever grifter. You need to read more widely and find several different news outlets for a better and more balanced view
1
@1solosoldier A simple reading of US economic data shows the US has already recovered. There are signs of inflation could be a problem but talk of hyperinflation is just alarmist. Crime rates in the US are at an historic low other than some spikes in gun crime in some cities. Where do you get your information from as what I have said is just common knowledge
1
@1solosoldier I can't comment on your personal circumstances and this is known as anecdotal evidence as real as it is to you it is not the average experience. It is for instance I experienced a break in and my house was robbed and then conclude every house in America had been robbed. I'm sure your personal experiences are real but that does not mean it is the same for every American. My data comes from the US Dept of Commerce Economic Analysis. You may not believe this data but it is the same data that President Trump quoted while he was President.
1
@nicolettakouris Totally agree you can't measure Bidens economic credentials after only 6 months even with the Dow reaching a record high today and a over million jobs created this year, there is another 3 and a half years before any success or failure judgment needs to be made. I can't imagine Biden at 82 at the next election being able to run anyway. Trump was very good at telling everyone the economy was great under his administration, but really his numbers were very average and I don't include the huge dip last year as he can't be blamed for the Covid recession.
1
@NJTransit1985 I'm not a Democrat and all I am pointing out is the economic reality. The US economy fully recovered last year to post an average for the year of 4% Yes it dipped aand bounced wildly to the tune of 35%, and this was a result of a Federal Republican administration and both Democrat and Republican state governments So the blame can be shared around equally. Your bias just doesn't match the facts.
1
@Parakeetfriend4215 Just the same independent economic data that President Trump used in his four years in office.
1
I'm just spitballing here but maybe the people who voted blamed President Trump in part for the deaths of over half a million Americans from Covid19.
1
@robert8755 I never suggested American voters were logical, but your clear bias towards Trump and complete lack of understanding of how the mRNA vaccines were developed both in the US and outside the US in Britain and Europe with no assistance from Trump, it is telling, and Trump I might add before Covid19 was a rabid anti-vaxxer. I personally do not believe Trump was responsible for the huge death rate in the US, I think that can be shared round by Federal and state authorities both Democratic and Republican. The problem is Trump supporters think with a Democrat in the White House the end of the US is upon us, and Democrats think with a Republican President the end of the world is upon us. Of course neither is true both sides have positive and negatives and the country will roll on. Biden is too old and Trump was is a narcissist, both parties need to look for better candidates at the 2024 election, I mean you or I could do a better job.

@robert8755 I speculated about Covid because something turned the American public against him, his economic numbers while nothing particularly special were OK, was it his trade policies? or maybe his foreign policy? if you don't think it was perceived handling of Covid then you must have some idea. It may be of interest to you but BioNTech who developed the Pfizer vaccine didn't accept any US funding last year to produce it. The Trump administration did nothing to spend up the human trials or the FDA approval that all happened in the normal time it takes. Trump talked it up merely to make him look good, that's what he does. Lastly US politics was not always this partisan it is a recent phenomenon in the last twenty years.
