Trump's Economy

[refineryworker05]

It's only me I can talk about......if the Trump economy is better for me. then so be it. Maybe the corrupt Obama economy was better for you....bless your heart!

So you really got nothing?

Who cares about your personal experiences?

If you post hey I’m doing great in the stock market or whatever great for you.

But when you post that to support the claim that the national economy under Trump is performing at a certain level, you are just being silly.

Then you get defensive and say you are only focused on you. Fine then stop making claims about the broader US economy based if you are only focused on you. That’s foolishness.

trump is grqbbing you by the pusillanimous

You have the same information available to you as everyone else. You choose to live in a clueless bubble. Willful ignorance.

I guess it's kinda like when you put a big X when someone has posted a verifiable fact, no better illustration of "willful ignorance", thank you.

from Obama??? I got a whole lot of nothin'!

"By contrast, in the decade from 2001 to 2010, average annual growth in real GDP was only 1.67 percent, and, so far, in the 21st century (from 2001 through 2012), average annual growth in real GDP has been only 1.775 percent."

Again, you can make any claim you want. But it is irrelevant to how the economy is performing. So carry on

Um, Obama took over in 2009, not sure why you think a metric from 2001-2010 is an accurate representation of his policies.

2008-2010 covers him....for the rest of it you are a big boy and can look it up yourself!

How long do you think President Obama was president?

You do realize that GWBush was President for 8 of those years?

You also realize that under GWBush was the greatest economic downturn since the depression? And that huge recession skews the growth numbers from at least 2008-2010?

So what’s your overall point?

No it doesn’t. He was not president for any part of 2008. He wasn’t sworn in office until January 21st 2009.

no you didnt. You posted GWBush and the huge recession that started under Bush.

and Obama was the following 8 years! Trump is not Bush or Obama.........whoever is responsible came before Trump. Trump has improved the economy.......check out the GDP.

I thought you were the one who said "dates don't matter"......except when you need them too. To make it clear enough for you to get.....when Obama was sworn in and for the following 8 years, our economy sucked!!

Of course, Obama’s record on job growth is also much worse than President Reagan’s record.

 

[moreluck]

Net job growth has declined under Obama. By the end of the second year of their terms as president, economic growth under Reagan averaged 7.1% , under Obama an anemic 2.8% .
