That's rich from a Trumper! 😀 Trump has a poor knowledge of geography, invents country names and recently proudly claimed Orban was Turkey's leader! 😀 At least two reasons to prefer Biden: - Biden is not a sore loser who tried to steal legitimate elections; - when confronting a major crisis, Biden acts rationally, and not in a childish and selfish way.

Trump is dominating the primaries. That doesn’t mean he’ll beat Biden

Not to the same extent, ex under Trump max 0.5% above other advanced economies. It's all on this website, by year, you can do your own search if you have more questions https://www.imf.org/external/datamapper/NGDP_RPCH@WEO/OEMDC/ADVEC/WEOWORLD/USA -

My point is that, with very similar level of inflation than other developped countries, the U.S has reached a significantly higher growth than other comparable developed countries. https://commonslibrary.parliament.uk/research-briefings/sn02784/ -

About your first question, I have no precise information about it. It may be that some countries have decreased prices a bit later than the U.S. I agree with your comment about previous years. As I posted somewhere previously, U.S. inflation has been a bit higher than in other developed countries in 2022, and a bit lower in 2023, so the cumulative 2022+2023 inflation should be similar. What is remarkable about the U.S. economy is not the inflation (similar to comparable economies), it's the GDP growth obtained with this level of inflation, which is much higher than other comparable developed countries. -

Lowest inflation in G7, and in detail: very low food inflation and energy price decrease. -
Trump had a lot of failures in his business life and was saved by his success in show business (for which I must admit he is talented). https://fortune.com/2016/09/08/donald-trump-the-apprentice-burnett/ https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/09/28/us/donald-trump-taxes-apprentice.html Oops! I nearly forgot Russian money! :) https://foreignpolicy.com/2018/12/21/how-russian-money-helped-save-trumps-business/

Thank you for showing that inflation was lower under Obama's last mandate and actually increased under Trump. And this under similar international context: no economic crisis effect, similar growth rates etc.. 😀 -

It's an article from April 2022. Don't you have more recent figures? -
You can check here that inflation under Trump was higher than in other developed economy, ex 2019 ADD AN ITEM TO THE CHART Advanced economies 1.4 United State 1.8 https://www.imf.org/external/datamapper/PCPIPCH@WEO/ADVEC/USA All advanced economies are subject to the same inflationary trends, so the way to assess economic performance is to compare with comparable countries. Well, that's what economists do. In the MAGA world it may be different. The U.S. economy is now faring better than other comparable countries, I.e. G7

In short, you have nothing. -
