Recession is a political term used by MSM to describe the smallest economic blip that can possibly occur during a Republican adminstration. The term has NEVER been used when a Democrat is in office by the MSM.
During 2000, the country had entered a true economic slowdown, when then candidate Bush referred to it he was skewered mercillessly by the MSM, Bush was right, of course.
During 1980 the country was in the midst of a nearly 3% contraction. It wasn’t mentioned at all in the press, why, because Jimmy Carter was in office. The public knew better and threw him out of office.
On and on we can go about this, dating all the way back to the depression, when FDR was reelected three times following the same failed economic policies as Hoover did and scarcely helping the American economy at all.
