Please update the section under economy.
[edit]Currently, the paragraph on the economy has the following line:
In February 2020, amid the COVID-19 pandemic, the U.S. entered a recession.[223][224]
Line can be left but content needs to be added:
U.S. recession ended in April 2020, making it shortest on record As per WP:RS
Overinflated inauguration attendance
[edit]@SPECIFICO: The article is tagged as being too long. We do not need to give a paragraph to this specific example of Trump spreading misinformation when we already have plenty of other content explaining that he spreads misinformation. I would be fine with one sentence in the inauguration section of this article saying that he spread misinformation about the attendance numbers, but we currently give it too much emphasis.

- The article is not too long, and this was a seminal event. SPECIFICO talk 18:59, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
- @SPECIFICO: The article is tagged as too long, and for good reason. There is no reason that our article on one U.S. President's presidency should be 10K words larger than our article on World War II. QuicoleJR (talk) 14:37, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
- This incident was about more than the spread of misinformation. WH spokesperson Kellyanne Conway coined a new term for falsehoods, "alternative facts", that is here to stay, both in the news and in comedy. This is [NBC's Chuck Todd interviewing Conway on January 22, 2021, when she first used the term and then started spinning the facts/falsehoods. Here she is five years later, saying in an interview on CBC that it was just a gaffe that she immediately corrected, another lie. (Background, if you're interested, the story of the Martin Luther King bust at the Oval Office that Conway is carrying on about in the NBC interview.) Space4Time3Continuum2x🖖 16:56, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
- That makes sense. We can keep it as-is. QuicoleJR (talk) 17:36, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
- Please don't use arguments such as "no reason". There is always a reason,as you appear to have affirmed in the same post above. SPECIFICO talk 17:46, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
- I stand by the fact that this article is too long, I just think that this is not the thing to trim. 23K words is too big for any article, Trump or not. QuicoleJR (talk) 21:50, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
