Summary
President Joe Biden touted his administration’s economic recovery efforts, citing job growth, reduced inflation, and infrastructure investments, as he prepares to hand off a strong economy to Donald Trump.
Biden criticized Trump’s proposed steep tariffs on imports, warning they could harm the economy and reintroduce inflation.
Trump plans tariffs against China, Mexico, and Canada, raising concerns about trade disruptions similar to those seen during his first term.
Economists caution that such policies could quickly reverse recent economic gains and weaken the U.S. economy.

I think the problem you have is you think these two thoughts are coming the same person. It’s like saying “Americans are so hypocritical- one moment you hear someone say gay people have rights and then the next you hear someone say that they shouldn’t- make up your mind!” As if it was one person talking.
The internet isn’t just you talking to one person who is busy creating threads with millions of accounts. There are at least a few dozen people here.

As we all know, leftists never disagree with eachother.
On an unrelated note, have you seen any good deals on ice picks on Facebook marketplace?

Pretty sure leftists fall in the former camp. They’ll gladly throw Democrats under the bus, and to a leftist there is no difference between the DNC and GOP.
Granted, the take that it’s not a binary is much more reasonable than the assumptions you are making at the top.

People on the left don’t consider the type of rebuilding the liberals do to be very constructive for most people.
It’s not all or nothing, the president absolutely influences the economy, but it’s indirectly enough that those changes come about slowly.

What do you mean “you people”? 🤔
It’s like steering a large ship. Any input to the controls take some time before they actually have any effect. So if you’re suddenly dropped at the helm, you’re pretty much at the mercy of whatever the last guy was doing for the immediate future. But that doesn’t mean you can’t attempt to get the ship back on course either, as whatever you do at some point will have an effect.
On another note, hard to blame Obama for 2008 in any case given he didn’t become president until 2009.
