what's in fashion?

It was pessimistically referred to as an anemic "new normal."
The growth in all economic factors never experienced a bump, it has gone on the same path for years. The biggest jump was in what we owe.

Trump did not run that into the ground, rather, against Democrat, leftist, Progressive predictions, that he would, he dramatically made it roar.
Tweety's failure was expected, it's been the hallmark of his life.
He propped the aging expansion using every tool possible and prior to Covid we were further in the hole than ever before in a growing economy.

What ran that into the ground was the closing down of the economy, which arguably was not necessary to do in such a draconian fashion that the "experts" demanded.

All the countries you cite, really shut down their economies and are now experiencing less than 10% of the deaths and new cases that we are and are going back to normalcy, carefully.

This Covid thing was the last best hope for the Dems to bring Trump down. And they are playing it for all it's worth and more. He did not cause the virus. And his handling of executive duties was not the cause of it being some proclaimed disaster. His failure to administer and lead was. Check the number of deaths in the US vs the combined number of deaths in these six European countries, Germany, France, italy, UK, Belgium, and Austria whose combined total population is close to the population of the U.S.. The death toll is not that different. And we have a far more adversary political and media opposition to Trump's ability to act than most of those countries have to slow down or defeat their executives policies.

When Tweety doesn't like COVID numbers, he stops testing.

When Tweety doesn't like census numbers, he stops counting.

When Tweety doesn't like vote tallies, he stops the mail from delivering them.

& when Tweety doesn't like intelligence, he stops listening:


Last seven days which is the data that matters in controlling the virus, looking at total deaths is like saying how great Striped Bass do, look at how many there have been.

The countries you cited
Deaths 534
New cases 34,450

USA
Deaths 7384
New cases 376,435

Tweety's lies and incompetence have lead to the greatest outbreak of Corona in the world.

There’s no football. Grandparents can’t leave their home. Kids aren’t going to school.

Tweety has wrecked the American way of life.
