Thanks Obama. Once again, a democrat fixes a ****ty republicans administration economy and of course the republican hacks give credit to the republicans administration handed over a decent economy, even though they did nothing to cause the good economy

We will likely see the same thing repeat again, next dem taking over a ****ty economy thanks to the republican administration
 

No, Obama was pushing green jobs and retraining. These jobs were never coming back. And how does Trump think he could do it? Does he have a magic wand?
It's Trump's economy. Not Obama's. Trump had the magic wand.

The reality: Nothing lasts forever. the upturn that started in 2010 under Obama is beginning to crest.
 


"The economy, stupid"

James Carville coined as a campaign strategist of Bill Clinton's successful 1992 presidential campaign.

Our great economy will be a giant help in getting president reelected in 2020. The democrats will have nothing
to run on but the race card. :ind:

The effects of his magic wand are yet to be felt. If he is re-elected we will then see what his magic wand has done by 2024.
 
Anyone wanna remind gramps that Trump's economy slowed down after he inherited it from Obama, and explain to him that not destroying everything isn't an accomplishment.
 
This stat is very deceiving.

During this same time period in Obama's Presidency, the country was entering the throes of Bush's depression, and in a severe downward economic spiral. Obama on the other hand, handed Trump a steady & growing economy.

So there is no equivalency here, unless you want to point-out that Obama was better for Trump's numbers than Bush was for Obama's.
 
Exactly! :thumbs:

It's the only thing Trump has going or him these days ... the robust economy he inherited from Obama.
 
A lot can change in 5 quarters ...

Obama didn't hand Trump anything.

The video is irrelevant.

The numbers are around 200K jobs per month, and 2% GDP growth. That's what Obama handed to Trump, and that's around what Trump has been continuing, except for a slight GDP growth bump just after the tax cuts (that is now receding back).
 
Everything good, positive, and beneficial to the country and the people, the left will besmirch it. They can't help it.
 

Job growth always goes up. More jobs were created in Obama's first 30 months than Trump's first 30 months and coal is dying. Those jobs aren't coming back.

What economic policy are you referring to? The tax cuts that are making Democrats look like fiscal conservatives. But I get it, the debt only matters when a Democrat is POTUS.

Yep. The only thing. If he loses that, he's dead.

But if he keeps it, he's a very formidable opponent. And the way it's going with Chairman Powell at the Fed, it looks like he's going to juice it all the way until next November!

Just as the right did during the 8 years of Clinton and 8 years of Obama. Nothing new here....
