It's of no comfort to the millions of Americans who are unemployed, but the fact of the matter is that the US economic recovery has been extraordinary.

What an amazing piece of doublethink in that one sentence.

And all it took was electing the right anti-American racist freak president twice to achieve this STUNNING success.

I have an economics degree & these graphs are so convoluted I can’t understand their significance.

[GeronL]

Seems like some April fool's joke. I don't get it.

Reminds me of th;eir statements that putting more people on welfare will increase spending and lead to the recovery. I applied for welfare but was told I make too much on Social Security and so I cannot improve the economy. Bummer. (sarc)

What a load of bull poop!

Subtract out government spending and our GDP has actually contracted from 2008 to current.

As Bugs Bunny would say what a Maroon!

Why, in Chart 2, they even managed to make the Great Depression look like a strong and vigorous employment recovery compared to the rest of the world. But why didn’t they compare this Obama ‘recovery’ to other recoveries during the many prior recessions here in the US?

This entire ruse of comparing the US economy to different types of economies around the world is nonsense.

What alternate universe is this report from?

And I thought Biden had delivered the whole load.

This is total and complete nonsense. Charting statistical lies don’t make them facts.

...the fact of the matter is that the US economic recovery has been extraordinary

That just pegged every BS meter in the world.
