Majority of Americans wrongly believe US is in recession – and most blame Biden

[Tommy Tainant]

People know they cannot afford anything anymore and can't make ends meet. To them, that is a recession and it is a cold hard fact the left want to deny. Trying to tell everyone who can't afford to live anymore that everything's going just fine is falling on deaf ears.

Those people are wrong.

 

[Tommy Tainant]

They think Trump has all the answers, and they're not told that he spent like a drunken sailor and lived off trillions in free money from the Fed (and asked for more).

Their world is so separate and insulated now that there's really no way to know. You can't convince a cultist of anything that is not of their world. Period.

I dont know what his econommic policies are. Does he have any ?

Majority of Americans wrongly believe US is in recession – and most blame Biden

Exclusive Harris poll for the Guardian shows 55% believe economy is shrinking, in troubling sign for president’s re-election bid

www.theguardian.com

• 55% believe the economy is shrinking, and 56% think the US is experiencing a recession, though the broadest measure of the economy, gross domestic product (GDP), has been growing.
• 49% believe the S&P 500 stock market index is down for the year, though the index went up about 24% in 2023 and is up more than 12% this year.
• 49% believe that unemployment is at a 50-year high, though the unemployment rate has been under 4%, a near 50-year low.

Its puzzling but perhaps it proves the powerr of right wing misinformation.It also illustrates
the stupidity of many American voters. Perhaps if they paid more attention to the economy and less to banning books and stringing up trannys they might have more informed opinions.

Anyway it looks like many of them are about to make an act of nationa lself harm.

The level of desperation at the DNC/Kremlin is hilarious and pathetic.

He inherited a bust economy.

He inherited an economy that had been going gangbusters until the powers behind him busted it quite intentionally through draconian lockdowns on private enterprise.

But Joe Biden has no power over inflation, which is why he passed his inflation bill that saved us..............I think.

Anyway, Joe may not be able to control inflation, but if given a chance, they can control the weather if only you would support giving them more power to do so. That way they can fix the weather like they fixed inflation............I think.

Sure..........like Trump did.

Can Biden borrow Trump's magic sharpie?

All I can figure is, you must be really, really stupid to be a democrat, or brain dead, but nothing in between really.

The Inflation Truthers are back. (watch the programming of those who will try and dismiss the facts by attacking the messenger because they posses no credible arguments and they are in the end -- programmed on how to respond to facts by the linked article)

So where is this disinflation denial coming from?

Some of us have seen this movie before. In the aftermath of the 2008 financial crisis, the Fed engaged in “quantitative easing” — loosely speaking, printing a lot of money in an attempt to boost a weak economy — and there were many people insisting that this would lead to runaway inflation. When huge inflation failed to materialize — when theoretical models saying that money-printing wouldn’t be inflationary in an economy with very low interest rates passed the reality test with flying colors — some people refused to accept what was (or actually wasn’t) happening.

Instead, they became “inflation truthers,” insisting that the benign numbers were fake.

Now the inflation truthers are back. This time, however, they come in several variants. And I thought it would be helpful to look at each variant and explain how we know it’s wrong.

The US is extracting more oil than ever before under Biden, or at least that's what the cultists like Mac1958 and rightwinger are saying.

Trump was president during the boom times, yes.

Then, the World Economic Forum sprung into action, which resulted in their hand chosen representative being placed in office.
