Trump's economy is roaring. Will it carry him in 2020?

WASHINGTON — There's really only one word — "boom!" — to describe the economic picture surrounding President Donald Trump 18 months away from the 2020 election.

On Friday, the Labor Department announced that the economy added 263,000 jobs and hourly wages grew by two-tenths of a percent in April. The unemployment rate — 3.6 percent — is at its lowest level since December 1969, before the births of nine of the Democrats running for his job.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average index of top stocks has been hovering near its record high in recent days, gross domestic product rose by 3.2 percent in the first quarter, and while some Democratic candidates are making the case that income inequality means that most Americans aren't feeling real benefits from the big numbers, that message is competing both with the broader figures and other topics.

Trump's allies see a president who is competently leading the country in the right direction on jobs and the economy, the issues that typically matter most to voters, and a Democratic Party arguing for a 180-degree pivot at its own peril.

While the GOP is far from perfect, and I certainly don't agree with everyone in the party on issues, they by in large believe that making the country free to prosper is what makes us free.

Well put.

 

[LordBrownTrout]

Yeah, 2007--08 and 2020 proved that.

The economy tanked because libs were screaming like banshees to lockdown the country. The unemployment was the lowest in history.

Anybody that voted for Potatohead is an idiot.

Why is he running unopposed in 2024?

Why is he running unopposed in 2024?

After all this time you still don`t know what it means to be contagious and asymptomatic? That`s on you, home school.

It's always the other guy's fault when the GOP leader has a fucked up economy.

People who ph ukes the economy are like fire alarm guy.

 

[struth]

Why is he running unopposed in 2024?

He wasn't...RFK Jr was running against him, but the DNC decided that they couldn't risk a potential threat to the CCP's puppet, so they canceled debates, making it impoosible for anyone to get the Dem nomination, so RFK Jr just flipped to running as an independent.

I guess that's something you can now brag about....sort of like Saddam, Putin, Xi and Castro bragging about winning landslide elections

 

[BluesLegend]

Wow, you’re right and don’t even know it….

Housing crash of 08——> Demos

Highest inflation in history——-> Demos

Highest interest rates in 23 years ----> Demos

Did you guys see Post #20 ?

The biggest propaganda lie ever concocted and foisted upon the American people is the lie that Bush caused our economic crisis. He did not.

Before the Democrats took Congress in 2007 unemployment was 4.1%, gas was $1.70 a gallon, and the economy was expanding.

Then the Democrats took Congress in 2007 and promptly destroyed the economy. When Obama became president in 2009 he made it twice as bad.

Let’s do a little math here:

Bush was president for 8 years, from 2001 to 2009.

As I said, in 2007 unemployment was 4.1% and the economy was expanding. That is SIX years into the Bush presidency mind you - SIX OUT OF EIGHT. (And BTW: 4.1% is almost perfect since there is no such thing as a 0% rate.)

Now, can anyone explain to me why the first six years of the eight-year Bush presidency was just fine, and then magically, when the Democrats took over Congress, the economy tanked? Simple: The Democrats took power. When they took power they pushed their social engineering policy of trying to let minorities who wants to own a house own a house whether they could afford it or not. All the bad loans the banks made, they were browbeat into that by the Left. And THAT was the first domino in line to fall.

As I said: The biggest propaganda lie ever concocted and foisted upon the American people is the lie that Bush caused our economic crisis. In fact, Democrats did, with policies that can find their genesis in the Clinton years

 

[Nostra]

Yeah, 2007--08 and 2020 proved that.

Yep Dimtards held the purse strings.

 

[Nostra]

Are you really this stupid?
Seriously?
I would be embarrased

Absolutely.

 

[Nostra]

Why is he running unopposed in 2024?

RFK Jr, Stupid.

Currenly polling at around 20%.

 

[Remodeling Maidiac]

That was also the democrats fault, something that intelligent people understand.

Specifically Barney Pedo Frank

NBC News poll shows GOP with largest-ever lead on the economy

NBC News poll shows GOP with largest-ever lead on the economy

First Read is your briefing from the NBC News Political Unit on the day’s most important political stories and why they matter.

www.nbcnews.com

QUOTE: The latest NBC News poll finds Republicans with a 21-point advantage on which political party better handles the economy, with 49% of registered voters picking the GOP and 28% picking the Democratic Party.

That’s the largest lead Republicans have held on this question in our poll dating back to 1991.

At the same time, the NBC News survey shows Democrats with just a 2-point edge on which party better looks out for the middle class, with 36% picking the Democratic Party and 34% selecting the GOP.

That’s the Democratic Party’s smallest advantage on this question dating back to 1989.

These results — which also find the GOP with advantages on immigration and crime, and with the Democratic Party ahead on abortion, education and health care — come after the Biden White House has made a concerted effort to tout the economic gains over the last two years, versus the job losses at the end of the Trump administration amid the Covid pandemic.

OP COMMENT: When the Leftist's favorite station starts telling the truth, you know there is trouble in DemoKKKrat-istan

But, the bottom line is, many people are stupid. A lot of the very same people who say Republicans are better at handling the economy are all for the stupid ass Democratic policies which led to the economy being bad.

 

[Billiejeens]

Absolutely.

No one is embarrassed or capable of being embarrassed in his cult

• A slightly larger majority, 57%, have greater faith in the Republican Party to protect the country from international terrorism and military threats, while 35% favor the Democrats.
• Fifty-three percent of people believe the Republican Party will do a better job of keeping the country prosperous over the next few years, whereas 39% choose the Democratic Party.
• The Republican Party has led on this measure in all but two readings in the trend originating in 2002, but today’s margin is one of the widest in that more limited stretch of time.
