    They did the same with Obama. Blamed him for an economy that he inherited from Bush. Then when Trump came around he boasted about how great the economy was… you know, the one he inherited from Obama.

      Exact same thing this time around. Covid happened, Trump bumbled it and also Congress gave away 950 billion mainly to people who didn’t need it, Fed lowered interest rates to zero… so Biden inherited rampant inflation and massive home price increases, and according to Conservatives, it’s the ‘Biden economy’. Of course they can never name anything they think Biden did to cause it.
