They'll point to the fact we aren't all the way back yet, as if Joe Biden was going to blink twice all I Dream of Jeanie style and the economy would be fixed.

Donald Trump had the worst jobs record since Herbert Hoover, he absolutely destroyed our economy. Joe's recovery is remarkably fast and record breaking. WE NEED TO BRAG MORE!!!!

they can actually recognize that there is a DIRECT LINE CORRELATIONAL RELATIONSHIP between the COVID case numbers and economic performance!!

Things were looking great at the beginning of the summer, and then the Delta variant hit, which totally knocked things off track for a while. We're finally starting to see a decline in case numbers, and SURPRISE, SURPRISE...things are starting to look better again.

And perhaps they can keep this in mind before they open their mouths to bash Joe Biden over the federal mandates for employers on vaccination.

It's just a tool, no one saying it and making up the memes actually *believes* what they're saying. They just say it, or repeat it, to further their cause.

All major indexes are at record highs right now.

Joe Biden deserves a ticker tape parade for how quickly he's rescued the economy from the disaster Donald Trump left.
