I am 60 years old, and can't understand why people believe Republicans are good for the economy, conservatives cut taxes and raise the debt, spend more and bring in less, yet they are portrayed as economic genius, when the Democrats make jobs, build structure to growth and grow the economy,
It's the same across Europe, too

Hard won rights rescinded. Conservatives move back any hope of real change.

Whatever you do, don't point out that the Democrats fell in love with what they liked to call "progessive neoliberalism" right about the same time they turned their back on the working class in the early 70's.
Or that Clinton surrendered control to the private sector shortly after taking office. Just in case anyone ever wondered why Robert Reich bailed after having been friends with Clinton since 1968.
Don't mention that Clinton signed NAFTA and let the jobs leave the counntry after Reagan broke the unions either.

u/Aggravating-Gate8865 15h ago
Just the facts :
Three official NBER recessions occurred in the last 35 years (since roughly late 1991), and all three began while a Republican was president. No recession in that window began under a Democrat. 
NBER dates (the standard source economists use):
• July 1990–March 1991 (Gulf War / S&L-related). Started under George H.W. Bush. Officially ended before the 35-year window, though the recovery was slow.
• March 2001–November 2001 (dot-com bust + 9/11). Started two months after George W. Bush took office.
• December 2007–June 2009 (Great Recession / housing and financial crisis). Started under George W. Bush; Barack Obama took office in January 2009 while it was still underway and it ended five months later.
• February–April 2020 (COVID lockdowns). Started and ended under Donald Trump. It was the shortest on record. 
No other NBER recession has been declared since. There was no recession under Bill Clinton, none that started under Obama after the inherited 2007–09 downturn, and none under Joe Biden.
Who “rescued” what
The question’s framing (“Republican recession” + “had to rescue”) treats the start date as proof of cause and the next president as the fixer. Start dates are facts; causation is not that simple.
• Recessions are dated by a private research committee using data on output, employment, income, and spending. Presidents do not control the Fed, oil prices, asset bubbles, or pandemics.
• Clinton took office 22 months after the 1990–91 recession officially ended.
• Obama inherited an ongoing deep recession that had already begun 13 months earlier.
• Biden took office nine months after the two-month 2020 recession had already ended.
The same pattern appears if you go back further: most post-WWII recessions began under Republicans, one under Carter (1980). That correlation is real and frequently cited. It is not the same as “Republicans cause recessions and Democrats fix them.” Length of time in office, Fed policy, wars, oil shocks, financial regulation (or lack of it), and luck all matter, and Congress is usually split. 
If the question is simply “how many times did a Democrat take office during or right after a downturn that started under a Republican in this period,” the answer is three (Clinton, Obama, Biden). If the question is “how many recessions were caused by Republican presidents,” that is not something NBER dates or most economists claim as a clean partisan fact.

No. That is an outright lie...
That social-media claim is false as stated. Using the standard recession chronology from the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER), the claim does not hold for every Republican president over the past 35 years.
Let's look at the Republican presidents President Party Left office Was U.S. in recession when he left? George H.W. Bush Republican Jan. 20, 1993 No
George W. Bush Republican Jan. 20, 2009 Yes
Donald Trump Republican Jan. 20, 2021 No — recession ended April 2020
Donald Trump Republican Currently serving Not applicable
The NBER dates the 1990–91 recession from July 1990 through March 1991. George H.W. Bush left office in January 1993, almost two years after that recession had ended. � National Bureau of Economic Research +1
George W. Bush is the one that clearly fits the claim: the Great Recession began in December 2007, while he was president, and continued until June 2009. He left office in January 2009, so the country was indeed in recession when he left. � National Bureau of Economic Research +1
Donald Trump presents an especially important problem for the claim. The COVID recession began in February 2020 and ended in April 2020. Trump left office nine months later, in January 2021. Therefore, the United States was not in an NBER-defined recession when Trump left office. � National Bureau of Economic Research +1
What about the Democrats?
For comparison: Bill Clinton left office in January 2001. The recession didn't begin until March 2001 — two months after he left, so already in development during his presidency.
Barack Obama left office in January 2017. The previous recession had ended in June 2009. Joe Biden left office in January 2025. There was no NBER recession at that time.
The NBER's official chronology shows recessions beginning in March 2001, December 2007, and February 2020 during the period relevant to the claim. � National Bureau of Economic Research
Saying every Republican president over the last 35 years left office during a recession is demonstrably incorrect.
And there's an important methodological problem with attributing a recession to the president who happens to be in office: recessions often begin because of economic conditions that developed over several years, and the president has limited ability to control the business cycle in the short term.
Also, the NBER specifically cautions that "recession" isn't simply defined as two consecutive quarters of declining GDP; its determination considers employment, income, industrial production and other economy-wide indicators. � National Bureau of Economic Research +1
Bottom line: the viral claim is false. Of the three Republican presidents who completed terms in the last 35 years, only George W. Bush actually left office while the U.S. was in an officially recognized recession. � National Bureau of Economic Research +1

Cut all programs- every international cent and foreign funded job program should be frozen till national unemployment reaches >4%, defense spending should be audited and government contractors should be forced to undergo a yearly audit to make sure theyre not buying coffee cups from their cousin for $26/cup and they dont have 26 receptionists who all happen to be someones niece- but neither party's wants to do that so its become a spending competition that politicians win and the American taxpayer loses.

False. Biden admin, literally canceled hundreds of thousands, of domestic drilling contracts, that had been approved under Trump's admin. Nice try.

Then how come oil production started climbing 2 months after Biden took office, after it'd been falling for the last 13 months of Trump's 1st term?

It didn't though, you can't cancel hundreds of thousands of contracts, and oil production climbs. It dropped. It dropped so much that Biden had to dip into the oil reserves to keep the country's availability at a consistent level.

I literally gave you the link to the chart and table of US oil production.

You gave that fool a legit source and still denies the fact. Can't even provide a source itself. You are arguing with a bad faith poster.

The thing is that it's not him I'm trying to convince. He's a lost cause, no different than a religious fanatic.
It's everyone else reading this who might think he's right who I can try and save

Not true. How come Q-TrumpliKKKans just gullibly, and proudly, regurgitate all the Right-Wing propaganda they are fed for the past ten years?

Ronald Reagan was a traitor. Iran-Contra was despicable enough and he should never be put on a pedestal for that horseshit alone.
