    He tanked the economy the first time but for some reason people gave him a pass because of COVID but it was his poor response to COVID that ruined everything in the first place.

    It was insane that anyone saw him as being good for the economy. They just kept saying it on the news like it was a fact too. I just hope it all crashes soon so I can rebuild my life and keep up my own momentum.
