This is counter to what history proves. Reagan came into office with a huge inflation percentage and a very large debt. He lowered taxes and in a short time reversed all that. The economy Clinton came into was Reagan’s doing. Carter was a complete disaster when it came to the economy. I cannot think of anyone worse.
In addition, there was a constant partisan media drumbeat about the recession that they first seemed to notice after Reagan took office; it helped push Demwits back into control in Congress and they trimmed off his tax cuts. Reagan’s tax cuts had some overlap with JFK’s business tax cut that he campaigned on — needed to “get America moving again”.
Unless it is the Present Occupant.
One ruled with incompetence. The other with malignance.
