what part of massive global pandemic that **** up the entire world's economy are you refusing to comprehend?


 

I didn't place blame.  I stated facts.  And I did not forget about the pandemic.  The expiration date for that talking point will soon be upon us. 

But I do love how you loons pick and choose what topics you blame the pandemic for.  You one loon in particular who loves to bring up the worst quarterly GDP numbers that occurred during the Trump administration.  He fails to mention it was during the pandemic.  And then leaves out that very next quarter we saw the large increase that wiped out that loss. 

Another one some of your fellow loons point to is oil production. Pre COVID we saw the greatest increase oil production.  But all a couple of these loons will say is that Trump was president during the that marks the largest monthly oil production decline within a presidential term.  What they won't discuss is COVID.  Which dramatically dropped demand, there was plenty of supply, with no production.  Also, Oil production recovered somewhat by the end of Trump’s presidency. During Trump’s last month in office, production had recovered to 11.1 million BPD, which was still 2.2 million BPD higher than during his inauguration month.

You either accept all things that were **** up by covid or you cherry pick when you are going to use that excuse.
