In the spirit of "fairness", I asked Grok to name all Presidents REGARDLESS of party this question.
Here is Grok's answer...
Presidents since roughly 1962 (your lifetime) who oversaw major U.S. military actions in the Middle East or serious economic contractions include members of both parties. “Crashed the economy” and “started wars” are imprecise; recessions are dated by the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER), and most Middle East operations were responses to invasions, attacks, or civil conflicts rather than unprovoked starts.

Major Middle East military actions:

Ronald Reagan (R) ordered the 1982–84 Marine deployment in Lebanon (ended after the barracks bombing) and the 1986 airstrikes on Libya.
George H.W. Bush (R) led the 1991 Gulf War coalition that expelled Iraqi forces after Saddam Hussein’s invasion of Kuwait; Congress authorized it.
George W. Bush (R) initiated the 2003 invasion of Iraq (authorized by Congress) on the basis of later-discredited WMD claims; he also began the Afghanistan campaign after the 9/11 attacks (Afghanistan is not in the Middle East).
Barack Obama (D) ordered the 2011 NATO intervention in Libya that helped topple Gaddafi and conducted strikes and support operations against ISIS in Iraq and Syria.
Bill Clinton (D), Donald Trump (R), and Joe Biden (D) ordered more limited strikes or raids (Iraq no-fly zones and Desert Fox under Clinton; Soleimani strike under Trump; Houthi and Iran-proxy strikes under Biden), but not large-scale new ground wars.
NBER recessions in the same period (peak-to-trough dates):

1969–70 and 1973–75 under Nixon/Ford (R), the latter tied to the oil embargo.
1980 under Carter (D) and 1981–82 under Reagan (R), both linked to oil shocks and tight monetary policy to break inflation.
1990–91 under George H.W. Bush (R).
2001 and the start of the 2007–09 Great Recession under George W. Bush (R); the 2007–09 trough fell under Obama.
2020 (two months) under Trump (R), driven by pandemic lockdowns.
Several presidents of both parties (Johnson, Ford, Carter, Clinton, Obama, Trump in his first term) did not initiate large new Middle East ground wars, and economic expansions also occurred under both parties. External shocks (oil prices, financial crises, pandemics) and prior policy decisions often matter more than the party in office at the peak.

@nickgillespie @ATabarrok The basic standard Model Y starts at $39K. That's what I have and it's the most favorite car I've ever owned!
I'm so grateful that I'm alive (I'm 64) to enjoy this!

@Whenshespeaks12 I was in elementary school when one of my classmates died in a private plane crash along with his father and grandfather. I'm 64 now and still haven't forgotten that.
