I made a mistake. The aforementioned numbers were annually averaged over the year, so they're smoother than they should be.
Here are the numbers based on Q4 percent change from a year ago. No averages involved.
Real GDP Growth (Inflation Adjusted)
Biden
measuring end of Q4
2021 5.42%
2022 0.65%
Trump
2017 2.99%
2018 2.13%
2019 3.18%
2020 -1.08%
The economy is larger today than pre-Covid
GDP fell during Q1 in 2020 because of Covid. 2019 Q4 was pre-covid. Lets calculate percent change of Real GDP from 2019 to 2021.
Q4
2019 20,951 (2017 Billions dollars)
2021 21,847 (2017 Billions dollars)
2019-2021 4.28% (Real GDP growth from pre-Covid to a year after covid)
Biden performed 1.10% better than the typical 3.18% Real GDP average. He grew the economy 0% in 2022. It looks like 2023 will end with 2.1% growth and 2024 a recession. Go Brandon.
Notice Biden added more jobs in his first 30 months than Trump did in his first 30 months?
Unemployment rate pre-covid 3.6%. Unemployment rate now 3.8%. Amazing, people went back to work after Covid.
