DOW hits new record breaking heights - LV426 and Katzgar shitting their diapers

Well I guess that it is safe to say "truthie" is done, when one has to keep echoing the same it shows they have nothing more to offer, the rest of his exchanges here will be the usual corny copy and pasted almost with personal insults

Next

Apparently I have to keep repeating myself because dumb, dishonest assholes like you lack the grey matter between their ears to comprehend the OBVIOUS Arsecheese.

Cry harder. :laugh:
 
Partially true, but not entirely, if you recall, the economy wasn't a key issue after 2010, it was slowly heading in the right direction, but nobody boasted about it, it wasn't central to 2012

Today we have Trump taking full credit, but anyone with any sense history knows that nearly all those indicators Trump boasts had been heading in the right direction since 2010, it would be like Truman saying he won WWII.

No one is saying this isn't Trump's economy, rather, that he isn't the major catalyst that got it to where it is today

Agree 100%. And the same applies under Obama as the economy recovered from the recession which was certain to occur. You could switch Bush, Obama, and Trump to any of those terms and get essentially the same economic results.
 
You don't see Republicans giving Trump credit for the economy?

What I see are Republicans who are delusional about the economy.

They're calling it "the greatest economy ever".

So my concern isn't that they're giving Trump credit for the economy, but that they think this as a good economy worthy of giving Trump credit in the first place.


So? Drumpf's promises have nothing to do with the actual performance of the economy.

One of the major justifications for this shitty tax cut was that it would create growth of at least 3%.

That prediction, among others which I've spoken to countless times, was used to sell the tax cut as something that would positively affect the economy.

Conservatives intrinsically linked the tax cut to economic performance. In fact, you've done the same thing...you've said before that cutting taxes spurs growth, and we just saw from GDP report for last quarter that is not the case.

So pointing out that they said cutting taxes would lead to 3% growth not only indicts the economics, but their judgment too. Why? Because everyone else was telling them that it was never going to happen. But they didn't listen, and here we are.


You probably believed we were going to have "hope and change." You probably think we are going to have free college, forgive student loans, and have Medicare for all.

We are going to have those things at some point.

It might not be right away, but they are inevitable. The economics, which is the only thing I care about with regard to policy, are sound for all three. The only arguments against them are emotional and philosophical. And you know me...I don't waste time with that shit. If the dollars and cents make sense, then I'll probably support the policy. The reason I don't support Conservative policy is because the economics of it never work and never make sense.

BOTHSIDES=Reality
PARTISANSHIP=Idealistic Utopia

Laziness.

Saying BoThSiDeS is saying you can't be bothered to make distinctions and differences, so everyone must lower their expectations of you.
 
You could switch Bush, Obama, and Trump to any of those terms and get essentially the same economic results.

Wait - there was a massive economic collapse during Obama that nearly killed the economy and required trillions in bailouts?

BoThSiDeS are not the same. You can't switch Obama out for Bush and expect the same result. That's fucking idiotic. We know you can't because it was specific Bush policies that caused the Housing Bubble and subsequent collapse.

As his own fucking Working Group said: “The Presidents Working Group’s March policy statement acknowledged that turmoil in financial markets clearly was triggered by a dramatic weakening of underwriting standards for U.S. subprime mortgages, beginning in late 2004 and extending into 2007.”

That is all about policy, and it's all about Bush policy. And no, it's not the same as Obama.
 
Take the bet then you whiny asshole. You keep saying this but I haven't seen one cowardly leftist asshole take my bet. https://www.justplainpolitics.com/s...berals-are-strongly-encouraged-to-participate

You keep retuning with the same garbage, no one is going to "take the bet" for three reasons.

One, a year out is an eternity in politics

Two, Trump has distinct advantages at this point. He is an incumbent, most likely, even though against tradition, he will mobilize every asset of the Gov't to work for him, legal and illegal, and as we have seen, he will solicit as much foreign assistence as he can to aid him, again, legal and illegal

Third, and the biggest reason, everyone knows that if Trump loses "truthie" as a title will disappear the next day, so,why would they bother
 
The Obama record:

The Dow hit its pre-recession high on October 12, 2007, closing at 14,093.48

Trumps Inauguration 1/20/17 the Dow was 19,827.25

Obama Stock Market grew 5,734 points or 716.75 points a year or 40.6% OR 5.075% per year.

Trump record:

Trumps Inauguration 1/20/17 the Dow was 19,827.25

Current DOW: 27,725.65

Trump Stock Market grew 7,899 points or 3,038 points a year or 39.83% OR 15% per year. 7,899 is greater than 5,734. 15% per year is greater than 5.075% a year.
 
What I see are Republicans who are delusional about the economy.

GDP Growth under Obamunsim = 1.48%. GDP growth under Trump = 2.56% 2.56% much better than 1.48% :rolleyes:

Start of tax cuts: DOW: 24,754 Current DOW: 27,725.49 Increase = 2,971 or 12% Yep, in moron land this is awful!

Trumps inauguration DOW: 19,827.25. Increase since inauguration: 7,902.52 or 39.85%
Trumps election DOW: 18,322.74. Increase since election night: 9,407.03 or 51.3%

WOW!!!

As I said before, don't get all giddy, Americans view the economy happening in spite of Trump and not because of Trump, you can't name another President running for reelection enjoying a good economy who still had favorability numbers in the toilet

(what will it be this time, a corny copy and paste video or a post accented by insults, or both?

Keep telling yourself that...

You can't name another President where the market had as high of a number.

Americans view it as because of Trump. Those of you that are mad you got your ass kicked in 2016 and immediately gave Obama credit when market numbers were up refuse to give credit where credit it due.

Why is it that the black BOY could do something and you'd bend over, grab your ankles, and take it up the ass from him yet the white MAN does it and you suddenly change your tune?

It was the same with gas prices with Bush and Obama. Prices were up under Bush and you n-ls blamed him. Prices were up under Obama and you were quick to say a President has little to no control over gas prices.
 
Conservatives predicted the tax cut would eliminate (!) the deficit.

The deficit is now back to $1T.

I'm old enough to remember when Conservatives were so upset by trillion dollar deficits that they stapled teabags to their faces and screamed about birth certificates.

I am perfectly willing to put my neck out and predict. You can't because you know your rhetoric and your party are full of shit. :rolleyes:

There you go with that moronic "he cheats" meme again. You won't take the bet because you know your rhetoric and your party are full of shit. :rolleyes:

You sound just as stupid as LV426. In truth, you won't take the bet because you know your rhetoric and your party are full of shit. :rolleyes:

Do you have a link to this LIE asshole?

Thanks to Obamacare.

I'm old enough to remember when Conservatives were so upset by trillion dollar deficits that they stapled teabags to their faces and screamed about birth certificates.

But, are you old enough to remember when Leftists claimed that Obama's record breaking deficits and debt accumulation was A OK? STFU you massive, lying hypocrite on steroids. :rolleyes:
