    Jeet Heer Retweeted The Classical Ideas Podcast

    If American democracy dies in the next few years, one big reason will be that Jerome Powell (as an agent for the business class) decided it was good to give Trump a robust economy and Biden austerity.https://twitter.com/Classical_Ideas/status/1533513595123908608 …

        Yeah, Biden's on board for this. It's Jimmy Carter and Volcker part II.

        Counterpoint: the Trump economy was not robust. Dear Leader just repeated that lie so frequently that people believed it was robust. It was actually no better than the last three years of Obama, and that was before 2020.https://www.latimes.com/politics/story/2020-10-27/trump-vs-obama-who-really-did-better-on-the-economy …

        You're going to have to learn that, "but we are not Trump!" is not a winning message.

        If the US were actually a democracy, we would actually get to vote for this guy rather then just have decide to do whatever he wants with the "economy"
