To be fair, even if Trump did manage the pandemic like a sane person, the economy likely would’ve still taken a massive pandemic hit.

Other nations, with better public health policies and lower losses of life, also saw a bonkers hit to economic indicators.

You can’t say that about the rampant spending that took place during his administration. Conservative fiscal policy be damned!

He gave small business owners instant full depreciation for large assets - specifically vehicles. It was an outright bribe because they all just went and bought luxury personal vehicles and claim they are for work. Sorry, no one uses a Land Rover for work.
