    Do you 'member when Clinton’s budget had a surplus? Do you 'member when Obama got us out of a recession? I 'member when Democrats fixed what the Bush family did to the economy. Twice. I 'member when Biden fixed what Trump did too.

      No, I don’t. I remember finding it rather difficult to keep food on the table and a roof over our heads when Obama was in.

        That’s because of Bush, dude. If you are not a Russian bot and actually interested in learning something, read this.

        If you aren’t interested in learning anything and want to treat politics like it’s a team sport, then wear that jersey at home and keep it to yourself.

        Ok, I’ll bite: give me more detail. What specific economic and fiscal policies made it harder to make ends meet under Obama as compared to Bush or Trump? And WHEN exactly did was this occurring? Because it can’t have been like a light switch.

        My prediction:

        • unable to answer cogently
        • the beginning of the Obama admin, which was more or less just handling and recovering from the Great Recession that occurred due to policies enacted by W, and (if you forgot) started under Bush to boot.

        Did you get arrested or fired during those years? I’m trying to figure out how you were failing so hard when the rest of the country was in a pretty good place.
