Watch Trump reverse Biden's dumpster-fire economy, and then watch Dems try to take credit for the success
Fox News ^ | 6 Dec, 2024 | Andy Puzder

Democrats have no equals when it comes to taking undeserved credit and evading well-deserved blame. Consider a recent Time article titled "Don’t Give Trump Credit for the success of the Biden Economy." Of course, no one, including President-elect Trump, wants credit for Biden’s dumpster fire economy. That debacle just cost the Democrats an election. 

 So, what is Time’s piece all about? Well, it is part of an effort to position Democrats to take credit for what even they see as Trump’s coming economic turnaround.

It’s not the first time Democrats have tried to take credit for Trump’s economic success.

Recall that in 2017, Trump inherited a stagnant economy mired in big government muck. He immediately cut taxes, slashed regulations and encouraged domestic energy production. Freed from eight years of President Obama’s oppressive policies, business optimism soared and the economy boomed.

In three years, America’s economy went from stagnating to thriving precisely because Trump reversed virtually every one of Obama’s stifling big government policies and adopted energizing free market policies. Obama nonetheless attempted to claim credit for that success.

No doubt the ‘RATs will claim Trump inherited their peace dividend too.

What Democrat party?

The party that was is a dissolved coalition of disparate groups with widely disparate agendas all and at each other and lacking a leader to provide the necessary cohesion

I live in Oklahoma, and since the election, gasoline prices have been steadily falling. Last night I saw it at $2.11 per gallon. The Trump win is already lowering prices. And my small stock portfolio is increasing in value. And he is still not in the White House.

I heard a fellow on a Houston radio show talking about his drive home from South Texas. He said that he saw work over rigs and fracking rigs being set up all over the place.

Come Jan 20, I expect the drillers will get cracking with a vengence.

I think it will work out like that in time. First, though, I think a lot of bad economic news will be “discovered” as soon as Trump is sworn in.

This article, for example is posted here this morning:

https://confoundedinterest.net/2024/12/06/crypt-keeper-jobs-report-november-household-jobs-report-shows-355k-jobs-lost-not-in-labor-force-increases-by-368k/

A torrent of bad economic news is probably about to break, all things that “couldn’t be Biden’s fault, because Trump....”

Maybe the good news of Trump will overwhelm the bad stuff immediately, but you can bet they are saving it up.

Yes, but don't kid yourself, they'll be back. Socialism and communism will always be popular with those who think they can get something for nothing.

I am afraid that PDJT can’t stop the economic train wreck that is coming.

“The party that was is a dissolved coalition of disparate groups with widely disparate agendas”

The only commonality for them is hatred. Hatred for Christians, hatred for America, hatred for Jews, and hatred for Israel.

My leftist boss still INSISTS that poor Joe Biden inherited the mess that Donald Trump created for him…

We can mention how good things shot up once Trump got into office and - he credits 0bama for it… Nevermind that Barry had 8 years .. oh no, it took til Trumps term for things to improve…

There’s NO reasoning with these people. They have chosen reprobate minds instead of wisdom.

Food prices are at their highest levels in over a year. And these items will get even more expensive
https://www.cnbc.com/2024/12/05/food-prices-are-at-a-one-year-high-heres-what-may-get-more-expensive.html

Global food prices recently rose to an 18-month high, with some food baskets expected to continue climbing, according to market watchers.
In October, world food commodity prices were at their highest since April 2023, according to the most recent data compiled by the United Nations’ Food and Agriculture Organization.

The DemoKKKrats have been claiming the 2017-2021 economy was due to Obama, not Trump.

Just like they’re claiming the “new better” Biden economy is because of Biden.

So, yes, they’ll claim Biden is why the Trump economy will get so good.

Maybe he can’t stop the train but can switch it off the mainline track onto a more deserving branch. Populated mainly by unionized soon to be former government employees, lefty academics and lazy welfare bums. Whose policy preferences have earned a depression. Put as much of the crash there as possible. The only way out of which is to repent, step on the bottom rung of what works and try to climb. The illegals will spared our crash as they’ll all be deported trying to fix their original trains. Best of luck to them. Leaving plenty of empty first rung steps to success for our deserving crashies willing to climb.
