There is very little chance of the economy being strong enough next year to change the negative perception of the economy that many likely voters currently have. Economic data to this point hasn't reflected the financial strain on consumers from the abrupt and significant change in Fed rate policy but the data will sooner than later reflect the damage. Inflation will inevitably come down in a rapid manner as Americans have less and less cash on hand or accessible credit to spend on both essential and non-essential goods and services. Data showing a significantly reduced rate of inflation could help Biden by offsetting other economic data that turns sour prior to election day 2024. In any case, the sitting president will get more blame and/or credit for the current state of economy just as they always do. |
Your sentiment doesn't jibe with what any "too big to fail" bank or the Fed or any leading economists are saying currently. I will take their opinions over yours. |
This is what I want to know. I see them as the same on this issue. So democrats sit out the election because they hate Biden, then don’t they realize they’re handing it to Trump? As for a new energetic democrat, who is going to come out within the next 6 months that could replace Biden and win? |
Pfffft! |
I know what things cost on Inauguration Day and I know what they cost now. If this is a strong Biden economy, I’ll take trump |
But inflation has been high, and it’s actually higher in basically all other Western countries including those with conservative governments. So do you really think if Trump had won in 2020 inflation in the US would not have gone up With the pandemic? Trump increased the debt a lot in just 4 years so i doubt you would thrive under his administration unless your name is Elon or Jeff and are a multinillionaire |
The cost of trump is enormous. He could cost us our votes counting, our children's basic rights, more give aways to the wealthy, no protections for our climate, etc. He is a much bigger threat than Biden. |
At this time in 2011, Romney was ahead of Obama.
All of this is noise. |
Inaguration Day, when the country was in a recession, jobs were being hemorraged and gas was so cheap due to lack of demand because the economy came to a stand still, that it was being given away. Fun time! |

+1 Such an ironic statement. Under Biden: GDP is stronger Unemployment is lower Net Job Growth is higher More manufacturing jobs Net jobs being returned to the US So if you thought the economy was strong under Trump, then, based on facts, you should be screaming from the rafters how great things are now. And yet, you let your partisan glasses cloud your brain of actual facts. |
+1 The media needs to create a narrative. |
Keep hoping for that recession. It was supposed to be here by now, you must be so disappointed. |
