From Quora..
I am undecided between Trump and Biden. Is there anyone who can give an unbiased opinion as to the pros and cons of each candidate? So much of the "expert" opinions out there are totally one sided.
We know what four years of Trump looks like, we can only speculate on four years of Biden.
Trump came into office with a growing economy. Under Obama, the Dow grew from below 7,000 to about 24,000 by the time Trump signed his tax bill. By the time the c****av***s hit, the Dow had only reached about 27,000, about half the growth rate as under Obama. Similarly, unemployment under Obama dropped from about 10% to just over 4% by the time Trump passed his tax bill, and only got as low as 3.6% by the time the c****av***s crisis hit. That’s almost 1% annually under Obama compared to less than .2% annually under Trump. Long before the c****av***s even hit China, the Fed lowered interest rates in an attempt to counter the economic slowdown, and Trump himself criticized them for not committing to do more to prevent a recession. That recession officially began in February, a month before the stock market collapsed and unemployment skyrocketed because of the lockdowns.
And all of that assumes that Trump isn’t even responsible for the fact that America has had the worst c****av***s response of any industrialized nation on the planet.
Now we don’t know what a Biden administration will look like, but his platform is largely to return to Obama-era policies. Policies under which the Dow tripled, unemployment dropped by more than half, and under which we successfully navigated two v***l outbreaks.
So now your choice is four more years of what we know isn’t working, or to take a chance on four years under a President who wants to go back to what was working before.

The problem is what Biden is offering has never been successfully done anywhere and has never been working here. Open borders, free healthcare for all non citizens, Shifting student debt to the taxpayers, free childcare, free community college education, r********ns to non s***es from non s***eowners, and that is just the start. Sounds like apples and oranges to me. What we know vs the wondrous world of socialism and bankruptcy. You decide.
