   Looks like the "curve" he talks about is the one that took a turn directly   
   into the dumpster.   
   Too bad he didn't link the Covid crisis to the economy.  And now he's got   
   nothing to brag about - at least not too brighter voters.

   Up until 2020, President Trump’s first term was characterized by solid job   
   growth, but then the pandemic wiped out about 15% of American jobs in just two   
   months. Since May, the economy has recovered only about half those jobs, and   
   Trump is heading into    
   the election with the worst job losses on record under any president.   
      
   In contrast, at this point in Obama’s presidency, the job market was up   
   0.4%. He took office at a time when employers were cutting hundreds of   
   thousands of jobs a month. Hiring kicked into higher gear later in his   
   presidency.
