You are so ignorant you dont know the difference between participation and productivity. However the labor participation rate is increasing over the low point that Trump hit.

It started under Trump and Biden is riding on Trump's coat tails

It seems you are just going to keep making excuses that Trump is the ONLY US President since WW2 to leave office with fewer people working then when he entered office.

Obama presided over a weak and slow growth economy for eight years. It was hardly anything to praise. Mediocrity rarely deserves it. Biden's economy has been shit. He started with the economy coming out of a self-inflicted drubbing because of government shutdowns.

Of the supposed "12 million jobs" he claims credit for, virtually all are simply ones that have been refilled since those shutdowns. There was a loss of about 22 million jobs during that. About 11 million had returned when Biden took office. Do the math.

There haven't been many, if any at all, added beyond those that were there prior to the shutdowns. If you look at the Spanish flu of 1918, unemployment dropped from about 12% to 2.5% when the epidemic ended. Worse for Biden, unlike then, his meddling in the market and mass spending has driven inflation through the roof. Back with the Spanish influenza, the economy roared back with 1.7% inflation, not the close to double digits Biden caused through idiotic policy.

By every measure, Biden's continued massive spending, massive new regulatory burdens, and idiotic greentard mandates on the economy have been a huge drag to both recovery and keeping inflation down. Sure, later this week in his self-flagellating State of the Union address he's going to claim things were never better even as nearly three-quarters of the population say the economy is for shit. No amount of lying spin on Biden's part is going to change the fact that most people want him out of office and think he's doing a shitty job of running the country.

Obama fixed a near 2nd great depression that Bush and his policies created. You should be thanking him. He handed over a soaring and vibrant economy that Trump utterly fucked up.

Obama's "solutions" put a bandaid on an amputation. They held back the economy severely and slowed recovery substantially.

Wrong of course. When he handed it over to Trumpy, he gave him a growing and vibrant economy. Trump did nothing but jump on the cart. https://www.epi.org/publication/president-obama-policies-economic-recovery/ Obama saved the Republican mess as Dems usually have to do.

It was how badly and slowly daffy Donld handled Covid. He kept denying it existed and then worried about the number would make him look bad. He could have saved us all by being an adult and a person who cares about others. He fails in both of these he was as bad a president as he is a human being.

Stop the lies. When Trump put a travel ban on China Biden called him a xenophobe. The democrats were so focused on impeachment they had no clue about COVID. Stop spewing the democrats lies

Trump was President so we can't blame the President?
Either you blame Trump or you can't blame Biden. One or the other. You don't get to absolve one and blame the other.
 
The 3 percent GDP raise was in a quarter. Multiply by 4 to find a year's GDP increase. It is way above inflation, which is dropping.

Nice spin but because of Trump the US was still in good shape and already in recovery before Joe took over. Look how Biden lies and claims people going back to their old jobs after the democrats lockdowns stopped. That is not jobs created that is job returns. Biden lies about everything
