It was going to be a tough economy no matter who was pres. Things would be even worse had Trump won.

There it is again.

A few things you can count on like the sun rising in the East: When things are looking gloomy under Democratic control and public opinion has started to sour, you’ll hear some form of these two arguments:

1 - things would have been worse! (See Luther’s post above). The classic example of this was Obama’s jobs saved metric. Not even close to the only example, but one that was famously pushed relentlessly for a couple of years. It gives people like Luther a good punching bag, but it can never be proven…or more importantly, disproven.

2 - we haven’t seen this one much yet, but I’m pretty sure it’s coming. There will be an insistence that the new gloom is the new normal. It was out of anyone’s control and was bound to happen…we just need to get used to it (and vote Democrat!).

Now, Trump blames Obama and Biden for all the crises he’s facing
Faced with crises from the coronavirus pandemic to nationwide protests against police brutality, President Donald Trump is increasingly turning to a favored defense: Blame Barack Obama.
Analysis: Trump gets his blame game on, targets Obama for just about everything
"I have to just say that the world is a mess," Trump lamented at a Rose Garden news conference Wednesday with Jordan's King Abdullah II, words he repeatedly has used since taking office. "Whether it's the Middle East, whether it's North Korea, whether it's so many other things, whether it's in our country — horrible trade deals — I inherited a mess."

$4.29 gas in some parts of Knoxville but it would have been worse under Trump.

Consider yourselves lucky. Gas is around $4.80/gallon for regular and $5.09/gallon for premium at Costco in Phoenix (which is FAR cheaper than any other gas station).

Never forget that Trump wanted to be the biggest COVID spender of all. Now he wouldn't have done some of the dumb shat Biden has done specifically around oil.


Trump says he wants a bigger stimulus package than the $2.2 trillion amount that Democrats are seeking

Both of them pissed away a criminal amount of money. That spending alone is ground to impeach both their asses as far as I’m concerned. We will never get out of the accumulated debt of the last decade.

Add theirs to BO's and GWB's and we're so far down a pit we may never see daylight

Thanks Reagan.
We can never forget the Godfather of Deficit Spending.....and at a time when most viewed the economy as strong.

We had somewhat reformed after Ronnie left office though. Our last four presidents have been fiscal disasters. Congress is fine with it since they get theirs too.

I have measured your response against my response continuum. Unfortunately, it fell into the category “incoherent”.

It was only interrupted by the Clinton years of sanity. Would have been continued under Gore, but you know....hanging chads and all.

The "previous administration blame game" has been going on for decades if not since the inception of the USA. This is just a smoke screen to detract from incompetence. If an admin inherits problems, it should work to solve the problems not make them worse (remember "the buck stops here"?). It amazes me that people on here are trying to defend this admin and making excuses for them. They've been in charge for almost a year and a half now and things are getting worse with no improvement in sight. Pathetic really.
