WATCH: Biden says he's leaving economy 'stronger than ever' for Americans as his term nears end

President Joe Biden lauded his administration’s record on the economy after the labor department reported Friday a surge in job growth and decline in unemployment last month.

Summary

President Joe Biden highlighted his administration’s economic record, citing consistent job growth and a 2.7% inflation rate drop from its 2022 peak.

December’s jobs report showed 256,000 new jobs and declining unemployment, signaling steady economic growth.

However, inflation remains above the Federal Reserve’s 2% target, and interest rates remain high, impacting homebuyers and businesses.

Public pessimism lingers on affordability as Biden passes a largely strong economy to his successor, Donald Trump.

    He ignored the law and most importantly, justice, in the process of appearing apolitical.

    What laws/justice did he ignore?

    He waited forever to appoint Jack Smith

    This was done as soon as there was a case.

    he didn’t file charges for sedition or treason against any members of the Trump cabinet when it was obviously needed to at least bring details to light

    You can’t file charges without evidence especially just to “bring details to light”.

    he didn’t go after any of Trump’s kids (or Kushner) for illegal monetary gain when newspapers had plenty enough details to do so

    This investigation is still happening. Why are you claiming there is enough evidence based off of newspaper articles?

    he let the Hunter Biden lawsuit continue after it was obvious they had no real cause

    You want Garland to stop lawsuits now? Didn’t Hunter Biden lose that lawsuit and get found guilty?

    He doesn’t just run the department of law and order, he runs the department of justice. And we got none of it during his tenure.

    We have never seen a president with 1 felony. Let alone all the felonies and laws Trump has broken. The DOJ wasn’t built to handle this.

    The DOJ can’t just throw Trump in prison.

    The same system that gives Merrick Garland power, gives Trump power.

    Even if Garland was to ignore that and arrest Trump without due process like you’re suggesting. There would be another incident like January 6th with Trump followers storming whatever prison Trump is locked up in.
