For the avoidance of doubt any comments in response to a previous post are directed to its ideas and not at any, or all, posters personally. |

I refer you to my previous answers! In case either you cannot read, or your memory is short, no-one doesn't know that in the early years of the Trump administration the US economy did well. What is disputed is why. No President can impact an economy really quickly, so what you are describing can all be laid at Obama's door and not Trump's. So, just to take one example for now, "Doubled the Child Tax Credit from $1,000 to $2,000 per child and expanded the eligibility for receiving the credit". How can that be laid at Obama's door?

Yet your Trump posts are clearly full of hateful vitriol. You are a master of saying one thing and doing another - a consummate hypocrite. Isn't about time you repeated your "I am a one nation conservative" nonsense?

This isn't like changing Vieira for Hodgson and getting an instant bounce. It's more like trying to turn a huge ship going at full speed. Change takes time. Change did come, and it wasn't all his fault, but it wasn't good. So by that token any successes Biden might achieve are actually down to Trump.

Just a few economic successes to be going on with: The unemployment rate reached 3.5 percent, the lowest in a half-century. More Americans reported being employed than ever before – nearly 160 million. The number of people claiming unemployment insurance as a share of the population hit its lowest on record. Incomes rose in every single metro area in the United States for the first time in nearly 3 decades. Poverty rates for African Americans and Hispanic Americans reached record lows. Income inequality fell for two straight years, and by the largest amount in over a decade. The bottom 50 percent of American households saw a 40 percent increase in net worth. Wages rose fastest for low-income and blue collar workers – a 16 percent pay increase. African American homeownership increased from 41.7 percent to 46.4 percent. Take no notice of this clown I haven't for months & months. If he seriously thinks that the economy is all down to Obama then he's actually a bigger clown than I initially thought.

'I'll be the greatest jobs president the country ever had'. Trump was the first president since Herbert Hoover during the Great Depression to depart office with fewer jobs in the country than when he entered. The DOW increased by 56% with Trump, but 148% with Obama and over 200% with Clinton. I don't know how much significance you can place on stats, but I do think Trumps continual covid denial seriously damaged the USA.

Trump could have been the greatest US President ever but he soon cucked. The day Steve Bannon left the Whitehouse, the dream died.

Be fair. This was coherent. Entirely wrong but it was coherent. On February 28, 2023, Biden claimed he reduced the national debt by .7 trillion. He actually increased the national debt by .84 trillion. You can't have both coherence and accuracy from Biden pick one, as it is often neither! It reminds me of a time when I was a time, and that thing I did, like this flower over here, there was 96 billion of them, anyway, that was that autumn and I did some things like we see here now.
Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!! |
