Summary

President Joe Biden touted his administration’s economic recovery efforts, citing job growth, reduced inflation, and infrastructure investments, as he prepares to hand off a strong economy to Donald Trump.

Biden criticized Trump’s proposed steep tariffs on imports, warning they could harm the economy and reintroduce inflation.

Trump plans tariffs against China, Mexico, and Canada, raising concerns about trade disruptions similar to those seen during his first term.

Economists caution that such policies could quickly reverse recent economic gains and weaken the U.S. economy.

    Womp womp. I’m convinced these idiots think maniacs like trump coming in to raid government coffers is advantageous to themselves some how. I know there might be a criminal network where this is true but not the entire fucking GOP.

    It’s insane how the right controls the narrative so hard that some people believe in earnest that they have good economic policy when it really just is, “gubberment don’t work, now gibbme all that money, nom nom nom.”
