Biden: "We're likely to inherit a recession" from Trump

• There's often worries of a recession hitting. However, it's often difficult to predict when and why one will hit.

What he's saying:

• "The president has increased with his profligate tax cut to the very wealthy the deficit by $1 trillion, $900 billion. It can’t be sustained."
• "But what [the Obama administration] did at the same time was we were able to invest it in things that in fact grew the economy at the same time. That’s the exact opposite of what Trump has done."
