Why don't we compare expectations during Trump's presidency to expectations during Biden's?

Sure, go right ahead. 

Biden - Inflation hits 9.1%
Trump - unemployment hits 13.3%

Would you rather be out of a job with low inflation or be working with high inflation?

The unemployment was covid-19 related, and I don't think people were complaining. Though the giveaways definitely contributed to inflation.

I wouldn't be surprised if future revisions actually end up showing deflation.

Where would unemployment be now if we removed all the added government jobs?

Are you aware of massive layoffs going on all over?

I am not dismissing any of the points you are making.

Yes, unemployment was covid related but so was high inflation. We were recovering from the worst economic downturn we have seen.

Everyone is going to twist the numbers for their narrative. I am just going to keep using the same goalposts for both sides even if some here don't like it.

Everyone is on edge. Every economic report results in an overreaction.
Amazon got killed the last couple of weeks. Some panicked but I saw it as another buying opportunity.
