What gets me is the selective remembering when it comes to how great things were economically back in 2019 when Trump was President. There is an intentional avoidance of the fact that much of the last year of Trump’s first term—2020—was a nightmare because of the pandemic.
There was a pandemic which messed with supply and demand!
Covid 19 put a screeching halt to whatever good feelings people might have had regarding food prices or gas prices or money in the pocket. The Biden administration then had to deal with the fallout, work on bringing inflation down, put people back to work, reinvigorate supply chains, which it did but which was obviously overlooked by the Trump campaign because that wouldn’t be a very strategic talking point.
There’s a need to remember the pandemic, and that there’s a reason why many may remember fondly those days before it arrived as better days economically. They’d rather not remember that Trump was still in office when Covid 19 hit. And they’d rather not remember the mind-numbingly scatter-brained manner in which Trump and much of the rest of his administration handled it.
