be trump, president when a massive pandemic was starting

cut taxes for the insanely rich, butcher most government functions and reduce government investment into the economy

have the worst possible pandemic response possible

blame the next president when the corporate bubble made by your hard-to-reverse policies bursts and tanks the economy

take credit for the economic boom caused by previous president's 8 years of outstanding economics which you completely tore down

profit(..?)

The policies of Obama + Biden dug us out of the recession that Republicans and "free-market" (tax cuts for the rich) advocates threw us in as a sacrifice, and gave Americans a break from shitty conservanomics. But people like you can't possibly realize that economic policies have long-term consequences, and that conservative economic policies in particular end up exploding in our face after a few years. The economy is too complicated for you to understand I guess, your understanding doesn't go past "tax = bad".
