Fact Check: Susan Page

Falsely Claims Economic Recovery Is Not Rapid and Robust

Claim

“Vice President Pence, your administration has been predicting a rapid and robust recovery, but the latest economic reports suggest that is not happening,” moderator Susan Page said during the vice presidential debate Wednesday.

Verdict: False.

In fact, the economic recovery has been far more robust and rapid than was predicted. The Federal Reserve said in minutes released Wednesday of its September meeting that business investment, job creation, declining unemployment, manufacturing, and the housing market had all recovered faster than expected.

In a note to clients, the investment bank Goldman Sachs said that “the damage has so far been much less severe than initially feared. Scarring effects on the business sector remain surprisingly limited. In addition, labour demand has rebounded much more quickly than the last cycle, reducing the risk of widespread long-term unemployment.”

Let us all not forget Susan Page is writing Democrat Nancy Pelosi’s biography due to be released in June 2021. Nod, nod wink, wink hey Democrats😂

What is life without a little controversy in it? Quite boring and sterile would be my answer.
