April 14, 2020 No Thanks, Obama: Biden Is The Worst Choice To Restore America’s Economy

"For the second time in 12 years,” President Obama said today in his reluctant endorsement of Joe Biden, “we'll have the incredible task of rebuilding our economy." It will indeed be an incredible task, but President Obama is hardly one to give advice on how to grow an economy. Joe Biden is unquestionably the worst choice to get America’s economy roaring back to life.

For most of the Obama-Biden Administration, a plurality of voters agreed Obama and Biden’s policies were actually making the U.S. economy worse. That same old left-wing, liberal agenda – the one Joe Biden is campaigning on today, but worse – caused the most painfully slow economic recovery since the Great Depression and stagnant wage growth that left millions of vulnerable Americans behind.

That all changed once President Trump was elected. By nearly every indicator, consumers and businesses are far more confident in the Trump Administration’s economic leadership than Obama and Biden’s. President Trump’s course correction brought job creation and wage growth surging back to life after years of stagnation under Joe Biden’s watch, bringing a flood of good news for America’s workers:

The choice in November is clear: rebuild the U.S. economy from this artificial interruption with President Trump, the lifelong businessman who built the best-rated economy in more than two decades and the lowest unemployment in half a century, or go backwards to the same failed career politicians and policies that gave us the worst economic recovery since the Great Depression.
