He didn't come up with that concept, or the name, and the left and right are both correct though not fully. Trump's actions with covid played a large part in the current economic crisis, Putin has a very powerful hand right now because he has done a lot to disconnect his economy from the west since the 2014 round of sanctions so the current round of sanctions ended up being self defeating for the West, Neo-Liberal economics have gutted the underclass to the point that its barely able to stand on its own two feet, and Biden has fucked up literally every single chance he could get, deepening the crisis.

Almost like they are completely disconnected because they see nothing in common with them as they aren't of the same class along with race and creed!Starting to get the feeling that the ruling class cares more for their own well-being than the average persons.

Seems like Putin made the right call here, what with sanction-proofing his economy.

GDP -10% over 3 years
If the numbers weren't massaged so hard we're probably looking at -10% in one year

Coincidentally enough back in spring my micro teacher ripped said it was entirely Biden's fault over gas prices

In defense of Trump with covid, when it first started any talk of closing borders was met with accusations of racism. Leftists kept borders open at the start of the pandemic when we had no idea what the fuck covid was, then we found the 99% survival rate and the same people decided to keep us all locked down. My country (UK) planned to ignore lockdowns, but because we live in a place where politicians only care about getting elected and the media got people to cry enough we ended up with lockdowns anyway. Now everyone I know has had covid at least once and the attitude is "We just have to live with it", I'm glad it only took us 2 years of lockdowns and mandatory vaccinations to reach this conclusion.
As much as I despise various politicians and governments, the majority of regular people absolutely fucked the rest of us over. Mainly leftists who now cry about inflation and living through another recession (After saying stopping covid was more important than the economy) and people who only get info from TV.

You're right and you're wrong--Trump was sadly the most "radical" option we could get for handling the virus since let's remember that barely any states didn't have some sort of statewide lockdown (I think just South Dakota was the exception). But Trump is a radical, the guy who isn't a politician like the Republican governors who cucked out. He likely had the political capital by mid-late 2020 to start threatening states with withholding funding for lockdowns. He DEFINITELY had the capital to fire Fauci since Fauci fucked up constantly.
I do remember thinking back during the 2020 election that if Trump lost the scamdemic would go on for years to come, and of course I was right. I'd think Trump fucked up mainly because he was told (by Kushner maybe?) to be a politician for once and worry about re-election and winning over the same suburban fags who hate him for mean tweets. If he was allowed to take office after winning in 2020, I'd like to think he'd have started demanding states ditch lockdowns and even though Trump's a vaxxfag probably wouldn't have done federal vaxx mandates.
Now it wasn't all Trump though. Blame China too. Their initial lockdowns started this mess and then their entry policies have decimated the shipping industry because the poorly paid Filipino sailors who manage the goods going everywhere are sick of taking every single vaxx and still being denied entry to ports in China (sometimes elsewhere too). The logistics crisis really accelerated the mess we're in by stopping recovery and accelerating inflation.

I don’t think Trump had much political capital, or at least not a good way of using it. Trump fucked up by holding the lockdown, though it was originally supposed to be just a week or two. I think one of the big factors to take in though was that by May we now had a summer of love shitshow happening along with the strong mail-in-voting push amongst other things. From there, him doing anything was essentially a massive trap given the immense amount of happenings and the general publics retardation over literally anything. I swear people would warn me going out that dangerous shit is happening only to then turn around and say the Flyod riots were 100% peaceful.
Trump honestly should have really put his foot down during this time and taken the horrendous press that would come from it. It was the better option long term for stabilization, but I can see how the 2020 election would halt him into playing the Dem’s rigged game.

There was no federal lockdown. There were various state policies, not a federal policy. While Trump waffled a bit on his public statements, and that didn't help, his biggest mistake was putting himself front and center. The media decided from day 1 that no matter what he said or did, he would be attacked for it. Restrict travel? He's Hitler. Regular press briefings to talk about experimental treatments? He's anti-science. Accelerate vax development? He's a dangerous retard. (Reminder that every single Democrat was anti-vax until the 4am Vote Fairy won the Upper Midwest for Biden.)
Ultimately, I think Trump just got eaten up by the fact that the GOP is as party at war with itself and its voters. No, he wasn't perfect. Everyone makes missteps. But Trump was like a CEO taking over a completely dysfunctional company, with a hostile Board of Directors tying his hands at crucial moments and openly sabotaging him at every turn. And with everything working against him, I still think he exceeded what 99% of people would have done in that situation. It's a situation that damps your successes and amplifies your mistakes.
The GOP was incapable of settling on a message, and had a large faction of leadership more interested in defeating Trump than winning anything at all. On COVID, Republicans ran from the extreme of the IN Gov trying to make lockdowns a permanent feature of daily life to the FL governor keeping the state free. During the Floyd riots, McConnell not-so-subtly threatened Trump with impeachment if he did anything to stop them. The main goal of the Republican Party from 2016-2020 was to figure out how to expel Trump without being blamed by the voters, not figuring out how to win anything.

If you are talking about his presidency as a whole outside of COVID, no he didn't exceed at anything. He was a trash leader who had 4 years to deal with the media and big tech, he chose to "monitor the situation" after all it was only his followers getting fucked over, nothing would happen to him. Then he got banned from social media and suddenly it mattered. He was a cunt and I'm glad he seethed after he abandoned people who looked at him to change things. At least he used his opportunity to help regular Americans to give Jerusalem to Israel for his Jewish children, it's a shame he didn't love America as much as he loved Israel.

White nationalists with anime pfps didn't get Trump elected, so he didn't "abandon" you by not dropping a nuke on Tel Aviv.
Normal Americans elected Trump. We were pretty pleased with how he beat every impeachment trap laid for him by the Ryan-McConnell-Schumer alliance, Remain in Mexico, NAFTA renegotiation, judicial appointments, charting a withdrawal from Afghanistan, and not letting the MIC drag him into turning Syria into Iraq 2.0.
Could have been better. Could have been a lot worse. He could have stepped on any of the legal landmines his enemies planted for him and been thrown out of office in a year, which was the original plan. Or he could have been another Bush.

I didn't say they did, nor did I claim to be a wignat you mouthbreathing trumpfag. Just pointing out he got shit done for Zionists but did fuck all for America. How's the wall looking? Oh right he gave up. Did he bring back the manufacturing industry? Oh no, that's why you're getting ass fucked to death by the global supply chain. Did he stop big tech censorship? lol. Remember how he was going to drain the swamp? How'd that work out? Did he end those forever wars? Oh no, that was the dementia patient who cut American losses in the middle east.
He at best did nothing. Trump was elected by dissatisfied working class people who saw their jobs outsourced, their savings diminished or wiped out entirely and the media constantly shitting on them whenever they raised their dissatisfaction about the direction America was heading. They chose an outsider for promise of change, who then fucked up everything and after the 2016 loss those in power will NEVER allow another outsider into power. Good job Trump. Trump supporters really are the dumbest cunts, but hey the people get the government they deserve, maybe if he did win 2024 you could enjoy 4 more years of him doing nothing for working class America and making good on his promise to fuck up the internet for everyone all because he got banned from social media.
