      "Trump shut down the economy for no reason" is a bold strategy, Cotton. https://twitter.com/Zac_Petkanas/status/1262031744074563584 …

      It's also hilarious that the DNC calls the economy in February 2020 "the Obama/Biden economy" when they spent 8 years arguing that it was still the Bush economy while Obama was in office.

          All that being said, obviously as a matter of practical politics, the narrative of "Rs can talk about a good economy, Ds have to explain" is better for Rs, while "Ds can talk about a bad economy, Rs have to explain" is better for Ds. This is why Trump is in real trouble.

          Regardless of any debate on substance, aren't both arguments consistent? That previous president's 8 years in office had much bigger impact on economy a few years in than the current president?

          Interesting argument; what was Trump’s position?

          Nobody with 1/2 a brain (who isn’t a political hack) believes the roaring economy was Obama’s of do they believe Trump killed the best economy in years

          How much credit they get aside, the economic trajectory clearly reversed after Obama took office, and merely continued after Trump took office.

          How many years in a row did Biden promise us "recovery summer"?

          Isn't the inverse of that also true? People arguing Obama was just getting the Bush benefits? I'd imagine they're not using that same thought process now.
