Welfare abuse is solely the fault of LBJ's Great Society
EVERYTHING was Jimmy Carter's fault
911 was Bill Clinton's fault
Benghazi was Hillary Clinton's fault
Crimea and EVERYTHING ELSE was Obama's fault
Joe Biden is at fault for Trump's Stockmarket

Because it's a big stinking GOP lie. An obvious one. Make it stick.

and they can't be convinced that Biden did good. Fuck em, it would be a waste of fucking time. It would be like casting pearls before swine.

Just like they did for 8 years of Obama.

The global inflation, though, was just too much for voters to take. So few understood, it was a global thing and the US outcome was better than most countries.

The US media is a failure. Trump is what they wanted, it is want they deserve.

Attack Trump. A senile old self deluded fool. Trumpet his failures. Ask about his felonies. Put him, not us, on the ropes..

Going out and reminding the base and base-adjacent Democrats just how good a job Biden did is a safe strategy. Not a great one, but better than the nothing we are getting from too many.

President Biden pulled us out of the last Trump Slump. Was the economy perfect? No, but there's a reason it was referred to as the "Envy of the World." This nonsense from Agent Orange that the current stock market volatility and losses were Biden's fault is a flat-out lie. Agent Orange bellowed that the stock market's incredible wins last fall were due to anticipation of his election is equally false.

This is another example of Trump attempting to alter history and reality.

Don't let him get away with it!

The economy is dying on Trump's watch and by Trump's hand.

Mad King Trump did this, no one else.

It was going to happen just like after the end of WW II no matter who is in office.

The things Biden's economy did for the working lcass still don't get talked about. I fear Biden's economy was the last time the working class in the US made tangible gains.
