Trade war is Biden’s fault.

I'm guessing the one word was actually 'knobhead'.

the Circulating Collectible Coin Redesign Act of 2020, which Trump signed in January 2021, states: “No head and shoulders portrait or bust of any person, living or dead, and no portrait of a living person may be included in the design on the reverse of specified coins,” which include the semiquincentennial series among others.
This rule has appeared in similar statutes and reaches back to longstanding Treasury practice, though historians note an exception: Calvin Coolidge, who appeared on a commemorative half-dollar while still in office in 1926. Since then, the Mint and the Treasury Department have strictly avoided living subjects—until now.

The Institute for Supply Management (ISM) survey and other private-label data …

Whew, maybe no statistician will lose his job this time.

Federal government bailout coming for the farmers, again:

Government subsidy (bailout by a different name) for farmers has been going on for years, decades, etc.

for example,
Ethanol
paying farmers not to plant
crop insurance
etc

I am actually in favor most of these, but to say that President Trump is doing something different is not really true.

I find it very Clintonian.
