I blame FoxNews/RW media for making Americans mean and stupid. I can prove it. Here’s a question that virtually every Trumper will get wrong:

Who had the better economy, Trump or Obama?

1/
FoxNews constantly touted how Trump “supercharged” the economy and downplays the fact we’re currently in a recession, made infinitely worse by his criminal response to it. Okay, so let’s discount Trump’s incompetence 2/
Let’s compare Trump’s first 3 years to Obama’s final 3. By any metric Obama’s economy was better: GDP, jobs, deficit, balance of trade...you name it, Obama was better. In fact, good case to be made Trump was driving us off a cliff before COVID
3/
But ask any MAGA and they’ll insist, despite numbers and reality, that Obama was a “disaster” and Trump had to fix things. It’s a story they tell themselves, bolstered by RW lie machine. Even media outlets who should know better bought into it.

It was all a lie 4/end
