No apology necessary. This is valuable in my opinion. I love having bullet point facts like these.
......... things at January 2020 just prior to the economic shutdowns, mostly by state governors and city mayors.
Let’s start with unemployment. It was 3.5% under Trump in January 2020 BC (before Covid). It is now 3.5%. Advantage? Tie.
Inflation: 2.5% in January 2020 BC, today? 8.2%. Advantage? Trump.
Mortgage rate: 4.75% in January 2020 BC, today? 7.1% (Bankrate 30yr rate). Advantage? Trump.
Home price growth: 4.95% in January 2020 BC, today? 12.99% (Case-Shiller National HPI YoY). Advantage (for housing affordability)? Trump
Diesel fuel (the lifeline of the shipping industry): $2.947 in January 2020 BC. Today? $5.309. Advantage? Trump.
Regular gasoline: $2.477 in January 2020 BC. Today? $3.76. Advantage? Trump.
I could go on and on with heating fuel, food, electricity, rent, etc. But you get the picture.
