WTF are you talking about? Wall Street has never had it better. America's has not had it better at least since the 50s in fact.Lower right-hand corner: MADCOW BLOG

So...you call a 2.55% Real GDP growth as 'boomed' (average growth under Trump)?
I guarantee most of Wall Street doesn't.
Your lack of mathematical skill is astounding
Obama came into office with an economy losing 750,000 jobs a month
Trump came in with an economy gaining 250,000 jobs a month
An advantage of a million jobs a month for Trump
He spent $10trn to do so. LOL. Again your math skills are terrible. There is a smaller pool now so the growth won’t be as large. All BHO did was lower borrowing costs...once he could not do that anymore he just spent and sat on his hands.
How is that different than Trump and his more than 2 trillion added to the debt?

It’s for different reasons but not much different. I am Disappointed in the current administration and their lack of fiscal focus.
Amazing , Obamas deficits are catastrophic, the cons are for different reasons!!
Terrific indoctrination
It is..Trump is spending on military. Obama spent on odd shit.

Hate to show actual dataDo we count Nixon/Ford as an 8-year period? That was a net loss in manufacturingYou mean aside from the previous 8 years, and the 8 years before that? There were many many 8 year periods of net loss on manufacturing. A quick look at the graph shows thatWe had a net loss of manufacturing jobs under Obama, which had never happened before in any previous eight-year period.
Since the U-6 only goes back to 1994, “historically high” doesn’t mean much.The U-6 rate stayed historically high until the last year or so of Obama's presidency, when businesses knew he would soon be replaced.
Ok so your claim is the chang in wages was not due to supply and demand, but only dislike/distrust of Obama.Wages have risen dramatically over the last 18 months, whereas wages were stagnant/flat-lined for six of Obama's eight years--again, until businesses knew they only had less than two years until he would be out of office.
when Obama took office there were about 5 unemployed for every job opening
That went to 4 unemployed for every 3 job opening when he left office,
And for the last year there have been more job openings than unemployed.
I think supply and demand explain the increase in wages pretty well. You disagree?
No one president had ever presided over a net loss in manufacturing jobs before Obama. I wasn't talking about any random 8-year period but 8-year periods of two presidential terms of the same president.
Reagan had a net loss on manufacturing, and so did both Bushes
Compared to over 70 years of the U-3? No.Can't you just put on your big boy pants and admit that the U-6 has looked much better under Trump than it did under Obama? 1994 was 25 years ago. That's a pretty long time to measure something, wouldn't you say?
Where are you thinking I denied the U-6was better under Trump? As with the U-3, the U-6 hadn’t been going up under Obama and isn’t going down any faster under a Trump. Continuation of a trend,
I did admit that. I specifically said wages have been going up. I was disagreeing with your made-up reason why wages have been going up.Similarly, why can't you guys just admit--sheesh, just admit the fact--that wages are doing much better under Trump than they did under Obama? This fact won't go away just because it makes you guys uncomfortable.
I have no idea. What poll or study are you citing?Oh, you really, really don't think that many businesses began to be more active in hiring and expanding during Obama's last two years precisely because they knew he would be out of office come January 2017?
Of course they do. But is that the current case?You don't think many businesses consider such a major factor as the business/economic views and policies of the president when deciding when and how to invest?? REALLY?
What evidence supports your claim?
I don't say this was the only factor, but I do say that for many businesses it was a huge factor.
No, you said it was the reason. Not “a reason” not “a major factor,” but the reason. The only one offered.

WTF is wrong with you?
the right wing doesn't consider financing their tax cuts, socialized wealth redistribution.Why are we running a trillion dollar deficit under a strong economy?The Best Tax Cut Economics can do?Since liberals showed zero interest in all the good economic news for March, let's look at the Department of Larbor's Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) jobs report for March. Here are some key highlights:
* The economy added 196,000 new jobs, in spite of all the cold weather and snow storms, etc.
* The change in jobs for January was revised up from +311,000 to +312,000, and the change for February was revised up from +20,000 to +33,000. I bet you never heard about those revisions on CNN, MSNBC, etc., etc.
* Employment in construction rose by 16,000 jobs, and has increased by 246,000 over the past 12 months.
* Among the major worker groups, the unemployment rates were as follows: adult men (3.6 percent), adult women (3.3 percent), teenagers (12.8 percent), Whites (3.4 percent), Blacks (6.7 percent), Asians (3.1 percent), and Hispanics (4.7 percent). These are historic lows for blacks, Hispanics, and women:

By the way, Hispanic unemployment never dropped below 5% before October 2017. Never.
Bureau of Labor Statistics Data
* In March, average hourly earnings for all employees on private nonfarm payrolls rose by 4 cents to $27.70, following a 10-cent gain in February. Over the past 12 months, average hourly earnings have increased by 3.2 percent. Most of my pay raises have been 2.0-2.5%.
* Average hourly earnings of private-sector production and nonsupervisory employees increased by 6 cents to $23.24 in March.
* The U-6 unemployment rate, aka the real unemployment rate, dropped again in March and is now down to 7.3%, down from 8.1% in January.

In fact, the U-6 rate is now lower than it was in 2005 and is approaching how low it was in 1999!

tax cut economics are worthless if they don't balance the budget.The Best Tax Cut Economics can do? U.S. National Debt Clock : Real Time
Uh, federal revenue has gone UP under the Trump tax cuts. So you can't blame the tax cuts for the deficit and the debt. The problem is that, even with the increase in revenue, we are spending so much money that we are still going into debt.
If we bring spending down to just below level of revenue, we will erase the deficit and can begin paying down the debt.
As for the stock market, when Trump took office on January 20, 2017, the Dow was at 19,827. It is now at 26.424, a gain of nearly 7,000 points in just over 2 years.

Is your expectation that recessions don't end? In fact, historically many more jobs are gained during the bounce back. At best Obama made the recession prolonged, and let's not even discuss how the political machinery was involved in the creating the recession.
With what Trump has been given, he's done very well. First time that the trade deals are actually made for Americans. He's actually contributing to the economy while Obama was all talk while fucking over Americans.
