In all honesty, I would think the economy should do very well next year if the fear of covid lessens. It only makes sense. The govt has given individuals and organizations "found" $$$$ with prior and continuing massive govt stimulus/spending programs. That $$ has to go somewhere. It would be almost impossible for the economy not to grow under the current conditions without an absolute abject failure from the current administration. Additionally, human nature will dictate people wanting to take more vacations, travel, dinning, sporting events, concerts, etc. as the virus lessens. All that $$$ and pent up demand is not going to just sit there unless something is terribly wrong.
Extremely OT.....

You see what you did there? Inflation, sluggish economy, etc. you claim all of that is because of Joe Biden’s policies (even though he is not been president for a whole year yet). He gets no pass for covid. But when the rebound happens, you will call it is just lost covid and us nothing to do with his policies. You can’t have it both ways.
But see United States, World War II.
(Also, for what it’s worth, Clemson’s economics department went to great lengths to hammer Keynesian Economics, at least during the late 2000s)
Seriously? Lol
Every time Peppermint Patty(Paski) speaks she blames Trump for all of the things that have gone wrong during the current administration.
Every time Trump talked about how great the economy was doing under his administration the liberal pundits came out saying it was all because of Obama’s policies.
When the economy went to hell in ‘08/‘09 the Obama apologists came out blaming it on Bush’s policies but if they knew what the hell they were talking about they’d be honest and see that it was actually Clinton’s policies that caused the crash.
Every President gets way too much credit and way to much blame on the ups and downs of our economy but that’s the hypocrisy of politicians and the naivety of the American public that keep electing this asses into office.
Biden has excessive faults, but he is not responsible for covid. I will be the first to admit that the acceleration of the economy right after the first covid shutdown was due in large part to opening up the country. Trump did open things up, but no matter who had done it, the economy was going to improve. Again, human nature at work to some degree there. Does covid have some impact on the sluggish economy? Absolutely, but part of that is also overbearing restrictive covid policies from and encouraged by his administration, both on individuals and businesses. Inflation is mostly on he and the dem party. Excessive spending, unwarranted excessive unemployment benefits and extensions, etc. along with polices designed to drive up fuel costs, are major contributors to inflation.
The continuation of stimulus packages by Trump has some responsibility for inflation, though much of that $$$ has probably been spent at this point. We spent entirely too much $$$ during his administration, imo. I have said it numerous times, and I will say it again. Trump had MANY faults, most notably his abhorrent demeanor. I am not a Trump worshiper, but he was far and away the best option.
So, while I do think the economy will do well technically due to his policies, I don't agree with them. You can't just simply print $$$$ for eternity and have massive government spending as an ongoing plan for economic growth. That is just ridiculous from a policy perspective. You can pick any country in the world and the economy would be stimulated if the govt injects massive amounts of $$$ from outside the market, so to speak. If we had airlifted trillions of dollars to (pick any free country name here) and dropped it in a field in the middle of the night, that country's economy would see improvement over the short term no matter what their economic policies were.
They usually are. Went from Gov of Florida to Trump and Biden sucks.
With all the economy sucks talk I was just waiting on someone to say Trickle Down economics is a real thing. 😂😂
Bill Clinton is easily the most intelligent POTUS in my lifetime. Insurrection Trump is easily the least intelligent. And I wouldn't trust either one of them.
Trump acted like a petulant rich boy prick at the end of his term. He took the low road unlike Wayne, Heston, Selleck and ,possibly, Mathew McConaughey.
Trump's policies? Solid as Stone Mountain Georgia. Unlike libs unable to call foggy, lying ass Joe a spade a spade, I'll call it.....Trump is a POS. He's unstable. Not as bad as Big Joe Biden.... who couldn't fight his way out of the children's restroom to save his soul.
Do you really think a platform of owning the libs will have mass appeal? He's going to need more than 40% of likely voters to pull that off and I just don't see it.
I bet you actually think biden/harris are doing a good job.
Border control issues aren’t a problem?
Lol. There’s not been one investigation that has not been totally shut down by the courts. And if you think the libs are leading the “democracy,” then again, you can’t be helped!
At which point did it start, the op or now?
Do we wait until it’s a third of the way to the end or should it have been when the thought of the post began?
Call it!
