Many predicted a Biden recession - instead we got a solid and growing economy

These are just blanket statements. It is literally the same discussion every single time on this board. I understand we aren't economists here but I also don't think it unreasonable for people to say more than that.

If that's all we can say, then lay out the data. At least we can have a discussion about that.

(But you'll notice not a single comment here about why so many economists thought we were headed for a recession. Nothing. Are we unable to answer that?)

I get why economists were predicting that. But it was the doom from Trump & Republicans that was so predictable - and it does get repetitive. Every time a Dem is elected, we're headed for a Depression. That's exactly what they said when Obama passed the stimulus, too.

It doesn't gel w/ the reality.

The level of discussion here is generally abysmal.

More than four years ago, Trump practically guaranteed an unprecedented economic depression if Americans dared to elect Biden.

The same thing Democrats are saying now - we are headed for a depression (because of Trump). Yes, partisans are going to partisan.

If you follow the workings of the Fed you'll also understand their concerns still with inflation and a cooling job market as they debate how much further they will cut interest rates. There is good data but also certain headwinds still existing. That's today's reality and it would be the reality no matter who won the election.
 
Well, let's see...
If the economy is so great why are:

Layoffs skyrocketing this year?





Labor utilization lowest in decades?



Disability claims on the rise?

Real wages fallen during Biden's time in office?




Debt per household is at an all time high?



Bankruptcies way up?



Seems to me that the actual economy right now sucks bigtime. You don't see it in the cherry-picked White House and Leftist MSM numbers because they are trying to turd polish as hard and fast as they can.

Bottom line: Biden's economy is a disaster, and it sucks bigtime.
