    Some people seem to revel in being ill-informed. There's no helping them

    Anyone who believes our economy is even in the same ball park as in 1929 is certainly ill-informed and there is no helping them. I was born in 1937 shortly after the depression and my mother and dad raised four children during the depression. There is zero comparison. My mother talked about the depression and those days were truly bad.

    Because it WOULD be a lie. That Trump mishandled and crashed the economy is not a lie. It's just a fact... You remember what "fact" means? Those things that we used to all agree on before Trump polluted the minds of so many.

    Covid-19 crashed the economy. That was going to happen regardless of what Trump did. If you don't restrict, more cases occur and the economy crashes. If you you do restrict, people stay home and the the economy crashes.

    Prior to Covid-19, we had a great economy. We have had nothing in the past that was even close. Especially, not anything resembling 1929. Show me the numbers from December 2019 and compare to any month in the Obama administration or any other administration for that matter.

    Your specialty is comparing Trump to events which are not comparable. Hitler and 1929.

    Because Trump mishandled Covid-19. Obama left in place a series of safeguards to ensure that if the next President were a moron (which he was), the economy that he created could recover quickly. But he didn't account for the possibility that it would be THIS big a moron. Maybe Biden will bring it back quick... maybe it will take time. But there is no way around the fact that Trump's mishandling of the pandemic is what most contributed to the crash being at the level we are seeing.

    If you don't stay home how are you going to avoid all the Covid-Mary Trump fans who are determined to see more Americans killed by the Trump virus than died in WWII That's over 400 K.

    You haven't seen anything but GOP propaganda.... You live on an imaginary planet of scandals and conspiracies that have all been investigated totally discredited but of course never retracted not to mention misinformation oh my God the orange clown. You don't know he is the worst businessman in history period all he ever did was act well on the apprentice which was scripted. I don't hate him I just wish he stayed out of politics. A total fraud and con man. Change the channel

    His only real achievement was not screwing up Obama's recovery until he did totally incompetent.... Yes he gave the middle East to Iran and is about to give Afghanistan to the Taliban. Great job. Stupidest wars ever thanks George w. Did you notice the corrupt deregulation bubble and bust the Republicans give us every time they have eight years in office?

    It is very much in the same ballpark and it has only been going on for 9 months. The GOP still doesn't like to do anything to help regular people. Thank God Biden is getting in even though he will be totally obstructed in Congress looks to me.... Every time the GOP gets in for eight years they give us a giant corrupt deregulation bubble and bust that the rich make scads of money at and we end up paying for.... So far this has had very similar unemployment and losses thanks to the orange clowns total failure to react to the pandemic period not reported on the GOP propaganda machine unbelievable.

    The economy prior to Covid-19 was great. Show me a statistic to the contrary.

    Even after Covid-19, the economy has been nothing like it was in 1929.

    Explain how you keep people from coming in contact with each other and at the same time allow business to operate at the same level.

    I don't know where you have been for the past 30 years or so, but trying it your way is what got us here in the first place. So thanks but no thanks, we'll do this our way.

    You follow science instead of having a orange clown who politicizes the reaction like a complete idiot and refuses to produce enough PPE equipment for healthcare workers and everybody else period wake up and smell the coffee please. Try listening to media that is not owned by Rupert stink bomb scumbag Murdock....

    You get everyone to wear masks in public wash their hands and socially distance period what is wrong with you? LOL. And you stay home as much as possible obviously and you close everything and have a lockdown and actually do it instead of having 30% of the country deciding they are rugged individualists. Absolute idiocy. Thanks GOP and orange clown.

    Yes that was Trump's big achievement, not wrecking the Obama recovery. of course it was slow and solid because the entire world was in a depression thanks to the GOP, again. The GOP is an idiot and a swamp. Only propaganda makes this mess possible....

    So you don't believe that large gatherings should be forbidden or that restaurants should limit their seating. Because if you do, then the economy is hurt regardless of who is president.
    The Trump economy was significantly better than Obama's.

    Can you offer evidence S. Korea had a huge reservoir of masks? Much appreciated.
