    To be fair COVID had a great deal to do with that

    Obviously he handled COVID extremely poorly and it didn’t need to be as dramatic of a crash, but I think that factor alone was the leading reason of why that happened

      Handled Covid poorly as it spread, and was instrumental in undoing the tools to help stop such outbreaks developed initially by GWB and then by Obama. Oh, right, that’s why he undid a lot of it. Out of spite, not out of sense. Mirrors more or less everything he’s doing now.

      I agree, and that’s one of the reasons that I’m interested in how they compare now, as those graphs were made before Biden’s term and it would be insightful to see the comparison between Biden post COVID, Trump, and the others listed.
