Joe Biden – along with his amen chorus in the press – keeps insisting that he and President Barack Obama handed Donald Trump a booming economy when they left office in 2016.
"We left a booming economy, " Biden said during the first presidential debate, "and he caused the recession." Debate moderator Chris Wallace jumped in to help Biden, adding that job growth was faster in the last three years of Obama's term than the first three of Trump's.
One is a flat out lie, the other a clever deception.
After presiding over the worst economic recovery since the Great Depression, Obama

Whatever the Dims say about the Republicans you can be absolutely sure they are guilty of it.

Lieen biden. He is pathological. If trump got equal treatment, walrus would have injected the facts and trump would not have had to inject the truth. Slowest recovery since 1929, flat wages for ever, tepid growth, falling work force participation, increasing poverty.

One thing we know that Biden didn't hand Trump was the tax cuts he implemented. Or the killing of previous trade deals. Or the return of manufacturing jobs from overseas. Etc. Funny how the economy started booming after all these things President Trump did differently than Obama and Biden.

Am beyond disgusted with Chris Wallace, who not only helped Biden re: the economy segment of the debate, but brought up the false quotes re: Charlottesville and ignored the fact that Trump said THEN and about 5,000 times since that he is anti virulent Right Wing groups.....bringing it up gave the subject legitimacy. He also stayed clear of immigration, China and Hunter Biden's $3.5 million gift from the wife of the Mayor of Moscow. I also caught an angry Wallace complaining about how HE was sabotaged by Trump's interruptions, never mentioning that Biden was the first interruptor, NEVER watch his program and can't imagine why Fox thinks he is great.

Yes a booming economy for the Bidens and the Obamas. Trump inherited a declining 1.6% economy. Was Wallace was colluding with Biden?
Let's face it, Biden is like a parrot. He has been programmed and has practiced his lines to over and over. He reminds me of an African Grey, known to be among the best talking parrots. It's when you ask Joe a follow up question is where he gets in trouble. Trump should let him ramble in the second debate. Remember how in the primary debates he would say what he memorized and would end earlier than his allotted two minutes and then say he was finished. Politicians never do that. They always talk past their time limit.

Obama and his horde of flying monkeys forced banks to give home loans to every deadbeat minority and illegal in the country, which caused a flood of home forclosures and underwater loans. Bank interest was set to near-zero levels because muslims do not believe in interest and Obama used panic means to slow inflation and recession. Donald Trump had things roaring in his first year while Obama and his basement cabal of traitors moved into Kalorama, a house bought with stolen money. Joe was clueless to what was going on because he was the token white boy and was excluded from the inner circle and had been for eight years.

This alone was why I hated Wallace's pretense at moderating.

In fact, not one single Democrat ran on a booming economy in 2016, and why when Trump mentioned the phrase, Make America Great Again, it resonated so well that the Democrats needed to fool people into thinking it meant something else.

What Obama bin Biden handed over to Trump was an economy based on burger flippers and sub sandwich makers - low skill and low paying jobs. That Trump didn't smack Bite-me with this fact in the debate was one of many missed opportunities.

Obama's recovery plan led to a slower recovery than if we'd done nothing.
See this graph:

Unemployment might have become as low as with No Stimulus if Obama's plan had been as good as they thought it would be.
But it wasn't that good, so it took longer than if we'd not spent that $857 billion.
Biden presided over a horrible set of programs that didn't help.

Even Obama was baffled by how fast Trump turned things around in the first 6 months.

Clinton didn't hand Bush a booming economy either, no matter what his butt ugly wife said. He just couldn't tear it up.

Biden tells whatever lies show up on the prompter. And he makes up a few of his own lies, often prefaced by, "C'mon, man......" You can tell he is about to pitch a whopper when you hear that wind up.

Joe can brag and swear on video about blackmailing the Ukraine so HE and other DC politicians could grab millions of laundered taxpayer money and NO ONE IN THE MEDIA ever asks him about it. Of course he can make up complete, obvious, lies. He knows no scum like Chris Wallace will challenge him. If the subject somehow comes up, he defaults to 'that's been debunked,' or 'i'm not going to answer.' Case closed and millions of smooth brained rat voters don't care. The Bernie kids are upset, but they will either forget to vote or think they are voting against bad orange man as they vote for a lying scum.
