Only read the first half because my eyes began to hurt lol. Paragraphs, Mr Suave!ohh @Devo182 one of my favorite posters..how about that unemployment rate before the pandemic? Or maybe the fact that the (DOW) closes daily at a record high up And did so up to 165 days straight to be exact..Obama has been long gone out of office and trump is still raising that bar.do you realize that after Bush we were basically in a recession and anywhere up from a recession is growth..history shows after an election when the country changes hands from different presidents there is always a economy boost and that’s all he ever got..unemployment was at 9% with Obama something trump has never seen...Obama’s regulations on big businesses and small compromised our growth as a country and he did not understand that..Obama was always a good salesman with ok ideas but someone who understands how the country grows and operates he was not.i was out on Obama the day he asked our captured soldiers To apologize to the Iranian government for being captured in open waters,who were aired live around the world when they alerted captured “tied up” I must add..if that is your president then that is your choosing but he isn’t or wasn’t mine..this is the United States of America where someone down the line in all of our families served and we don’t apologize to no one nor do we give them 4 billion US dollars in exchange for prisoners..the Iranians are a threat now because of Obama...Trump2020

I’ll raise ya...
Iran is just nuclear and can be taken out without being seen..North Korea along with Iran are way behind in military assets so I’m not worried about them as much as I am China.but combinedthat one is interesting but overall I think we have to many allies and between that and the UN I don’t think it will happen..I’m just worried about where Russia’s loyalty is if Infact they do combine together (Iran,China and North Korea)
Right. This isn't exactly out of nowhere. But hey, dismantle the department that was exactly there for such a thing, and you get this poor response. He even wanted to defund the cdc lol...luckily congress said f no to that.
Budget cuts...defund...ok.Trump didn't try to defund the CDC, he merely proposed budget cuts. Obama also tried to cut CDC funding as well in at least 3 of his 8 budget proposals, but Democrats and the media have tried to make way too much of it (big surprise). You could probably go back and look at every president's budget proposals submitted to Congress since the CDC has been in existence and find that in at least one annual proposal he called for cuts to the program.
It is what presidents do and have done since the beginning. They look to balance the budget, so they look for cuts where they can in order to get more funds for programs that are higher on their agenda. There is nothing particularly nefarious about it. Trump submitted a proposal that called for cuts, the Congress (Republican-controlled at the time) said it would be better to increase funds, and lo and behold, Trump didn't throw a tantrum about it.
And as the CDC did have increased funding the last 3 years it is on the CDC, not Trump, that their tests weren't working properly at the beginning, or that they hadn't built the stockpile of masks back up. (which also was not done during the last 6 years of the Obama Administration)
He hit em with a mic drop today and didn’t take any questions. Lame stream media gonna be triggered in few, just give them a little time to come up with something really ignorant and the lemmings pile on.The lunatic dems have to try any and every way possible to discredit Trump since they haven't got a platform anybody outside those same lunatics can get behind.
Very well said. 1000 likes to you sir.ohh @Devo182 one of my favorite posters..how about that unemployment rate before the pandemic?

I disagree with almost everything you posted. A whole bunch of Trump's executive orders to cut out many unnecessary rules and regulations helped spur many small, mid-size and large companies to start, add jobs and invest even more money to spur growth. The stock market NEVER approached anything close to what it has under Trump while Obama or anyone else was president. And I will add that unemployment for african americans and other minorities all were drastically improved under Trump.Only read the first half because my eyes began to hurt lol. Paragraphs, Mr Suave!
Unemployment has been cratering ever since about 2011 iirc. Like you said, really nowhere to go but up (down). Yes, Trump never saw 9% because it was already much lower when he entered...And, of course, that 9% or higher was only there because he inherited it from an anomaly. Let's not be disingenuous.
Great rate improvement under Obama, continued under Trump, until last year when it barely nudged at all (getting pretty close to full employment though, too). The rate did not increase under Trump.
Same for GDP growth.
This isn't an Obama or Trump argument, mind you, it is against any notion the president has great sway over the economy. Even the small effects they do have are lagging effects.
This idea that presidents wave wands over the economy is so misled. The clinton economy is just as laughable as the trump economy or obama economy. They all grew, improved, etc and the presidents had hardly a thing to do with it.
You will be saying that last phrase for a while get used to it...there are hundreds of miles of tunnels under the border lolI disagree with almost everything you posted.

Lastly, Trump 2020 and keep building that wall!!
the POTUS begets confidence (or lack thereof) he's simply the face. economy's tend to be cyclical.Only read the first half because my eyes began to hurt lol. Paragraphs, Mr Suave!
