Under Trump:
- The economy has slowed, heading towards recession now
- Inflation is rising, most things cost more
- His cutting of energy subsidies is driving up utility prices
- He's taken 100s of billions from health care/food assistance in a war on working people
- He's making measles great again
- The economy has slowed, heading towards recession now
- Inflation is rising, most things cost more
- His cutting of energy subsidies is driving up utility prices
- He's taken 100s of billions from health care/food assistance in a war on working people
- He's making measles great again
A few points here:
- Over 300,000 jobs on average were created each month of Biden Presidency
- In the last 3 months of his Presidency the average was 203,000
- Only 64,000 jobs were created last month, and the unemployment rate has risen from 4 to 4.6 under Trump
This Trump thing ain't working.

Are we in a recession?
Perhaps. Maybe. Hard to tell.
The Sahm Rule focuses on the 3-month average unemployment rate, and asking if it's risen half a point above its year-long low.
The low was 4.0% in January.
The latest (average of Sept & Nov, with Oct missing): 4.5%.
That's +0.5%.

I'm sure it's no coincidence that Venezuela has a LOT of oil.
If Trump and the Republicans invade Venezuela, it means America has invaded Venezuela. How did we feel about those Germans that didn’t want Hitler to invade Poland? Remember them? No— as the world saw it, it was Germany that invaded Poland, and it will be America that invades Venezuela.
