Democrats always rescue American after Republicans try to crash it. Clinton did it after Bush I. Obama did it after Bush II. Biden did it after trump I.

Anyone seeing the pattern?

11 of 13 recessions since WW2 have originated during Republican administrations.

That's too much data to be a fluke.

And the MAGA do NOT like real data and definitely do NOT like FACTS.
The Republicans are the ones that run us into recessions and it takes a DEM to come in and get us out of it.
I wonder who is going to be the next one .
Sure looks like they are really going to have their hands full this time, Trump is doing a really good job of fucking things up this time,
Some economists are saying this time we could end up in a really DEEP recession or even a depression.
I pity the next Dem President that has to get us out of Trumps massive mess.

Based on my observations of MAGA morons, I'd say most of them would rather be destitute and living on the street, than ever openly admit they might have made a mistake electing Trump.
