Biden’s economic accomplishments are record-breaking (CAP, Jan. 22, 2022). You can’t credibly call the following facts fake, however, Fox will try and we will cringe;

- Under Biden, all sectors saw job gains
- The United States recovered its pre-pandemic level of income faster than all other G-7 countries
- Real disposable incomes were up and poverty fell despite inflation
- People had more disposable income in 2021, even taking inflation into account
- Poverty among children fell by 38 percent from 2020 to 2021
- Workers were empowered to take better jobs

Trump’ economic failures include:
- Left office having created less jobs than when he entered office
- Mismanaged the pandemic making worse an inevitable financial turndown
- Created international trade policies that hurt U.S. industry while simultaneously alienating allies.
- Misunderstood the value of the World Trade Organization to the economy
- Increased the trade deficit with China with his trade wars
- Ballooned the national debt
- Failed to strengthen the American manufacturing sector
- Unemployment was consistently higher for people of color over whites
- Financial gains from his corporate tax cuts benefitted mainly those who were already rich.
- Out of control spending, an anti-conservative policy, ballooned the national debt to 7 trillion dollars
- His expensive tax cuts to the rich ballooned the deficit to the third largest increase in U.S. history
- Prices on goods for the average person increased as Trump engaged in a tariff war run by his ego to best President Chi. His ego war cost the American economy 300,000 jobs
- Millions of Americans lost their jobs, life savings, and lives due to his lying about the deadly nature of the corona virus
- His alienation of our allies with his toxic masculinity behaviors and anti- globalization policy of ” America First” affected positive trade practices
Communities of color bore the brunt of Trumpism’s economic policies, proving even his economic policies were as racist as his social policies.
