A recent look at the economic records of Donald Trump compared to Joe Biden and Kamala Harris reveals some eye-opening findings. With around 20 key metrics surveyed, the results are practically giving liberals heart palpitations. It turns out, Trump stands head and shoulders above his successor in almost every economic category. Who would have thought that a businessman could actually run an economy better than career politicians?
For starters, the unemployment rate during Trump’s presidency hit historic lows, while Biden has seen those numbers creep back up, despite all the hopeful rhetoric about recovery. It seems like the only thing “recovering” under Biden’s watch is inflation, which has become a household word—at least for families trying to fill up their grocery carts. It’s almost as if the economy is playing a cruel joke on everyday Americans, while the Democrats continue to play the blame game.
The job creation numbers during Trump were nothing short of impressive. His administration made policies that encouraged businesses to hire and expand, which is a fundamental principle of a robust economy. Fast forward to now, and Biden’s approach seems more focused on promoting high taxes and regulations that stifle growth and innovation. If his strategy was to keep Americans right where they are, it’s working like a charm. Cue the applause—or maybe just the groans of frustrated workers.

Then there’s the stock market. Under Trump, the markets were on fire, with consistent records being shattered. Now, with Biden at the helm, the volatility and uncertainty have become the norm, making Wall Street look like a rollercoaster ride designed by an amateur. Investors are left scratching their heads, wondering if it’s smart to take their chances or just to hide their money under the mattress where it’s “safer”—sort of like what grandma used to do back in the day.
All these points raise the question of why this is even a debate. Trump’s economic policies, grounded in capitalism and growth, have shown tangible results that Americans can feel in their wallets. Meanwhile, Biden’s policies somehow manage to promote the idea that spending massive amounts of taxpayer money is the key to success. Spoiler alert: it isn’t. The contrast is stark, and as the numbers reveal, it may be time for some introspection among the left about what real economic success looks like. But then again, when has self-reflection ever been a strong suit for the Democrats?
