Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

From what I've seen republicans tend to ride the coattails of the person before them and *lay claim to what their predecessor accomplished. I don't know enough about that time period to say if that was the case then but it seems likely.
I’m happy to know that I’m not the only one who notices this. Democrats lay out a beautiful table with a wonderful meal for all, repubs come in and say “wow, look what I made!” And then proceed to have a food fight, after which a dem has to come in and clean it up. The one that I’m curious about is Carter leading into the 80s. Did he do things to set the economy up proper, or was it the result of a rubber band effect from the global economy being overall shit at the time.
Carter became president during the absolute height of stagflation & the Iranian Revolution and only had 4 years to fix it.
HE WAS FUCKED, no matter what. Unbelievably unlucky president.
Trump's 1st term was pretty much Reagan 2.0. If he's going to stay with that theme, this term will be Bush (Sr.) 2.0
He's aiming more for Hitler 2.0.
That's just the way a lot of economic policy works. A policy's effects are not be instantaneous, but may take months or years before they are noticable depending on what they are. This lag often results in the next presidency experiencing the economic policies that were implemented by the previous presidency(s).
