Wasnt the economy on an up-tick during the entire Obama presidency?

I guess when Trump took office that momentum was all of trumps doing. lol.

Take a ruler and measure the angle of growth pre trump vs post Trump.

It’s really incredible how people keep trying to attribute this current boom to Obama when everyone worth a dime knows it was because of Trumps tax cuts and pro business stance that really pushed the markets higher.

Trump still hasn’t even beaten Obama on annual growth. 2.5% per year. It’s easy to make the stock market look ok when you’re putting trillions on America’s credit card to pump the economy during a “boom” cycle.



It’s his deficit spending.

Facts don’t care about your feelings, either:

S&P 500 in the first 721 trading days of each presidency:

Ronald Reagan

+27%

George H.W. Bush

+31%

Bill Clinton

+38%

George W. Bush

-20%

Barack Obama

+44%

Donald Trump

+38%

Tied with Clinton (hey that’s pretty good honestly), can’t beat the Muslim Kenyan Deep State Mustard Hotdog Starbucks Salute Tan Suit Guy.

See above math and analysis. Funny how charts based on numbers can be easily quantified.

lefties went from saying the economy would crash under President Trump to saying that economic performance now should be equivalent to growth rates out of a recessionary period (which should be high). at least the President keeps up with their insane, ever-shifting demands (akin to heads i win tails you lose)

dont forget that their prior candidate said the economy was screwed up in 2016 lmfao!!!!

Im foolish

I really should just let them keep making the same mistake

Nobody has doubted that the economy is good, the contention is that its continuing the trends started under Obama. Your "math analysis" doesnt speak to that question. If you look at S&P and Dow its pretty clear to be on a trend since 2010 that was not significantly altered from 2016

Dow was a bit above trend in 2017 but has since fallen back in line

He learned it at that Ark on Kentucky.

Yeah no.

Obama took over at the bottom of a historic drop. Bernie Sanders with his anti-capitalistic policies would have been in the green, not hard to do well when everything is trading for peanuts and the only way to go is up.

Trump took when the yield curve was inverting, everyone was predicting a recession, etc.

Your cognitive dissonance doesn't really impact me but lol. It's funny how people can hate someone that they try to contort reality.
