The Trump downturn continues....housing sales off, confidence down

[westwall]

The economic numbers coming in are getting worse and worse for the Trump administration.

The Pain Of This New Economic Downturn Is Starting To Show Up All Over The Country

Home sales down 7.8% in May
Consumer confidence down
FedEx reports loss of 1.97 BILLION dollars in the fiscal 4Q, ending May 31st.

Look for the MSM to begin an incessant propaganda blitz designed to worry the masses and cause a economic downturn. This is a long term plan by the media to make things bad to try and get rid of trump.

This is only the beginning, and the majority of what will be "reported" will be false.

Sounds more like a theory or opinion that all the liberal media's getting together to cause an economic downturn. Looks more like Obama's economy that trump's been riding is finally slowing down. Of course, that's just my opinion.

I watched them do the same things when bush the 2nd was president. It is an old tactic. That is not an opinion. That is a fact. obamas economy was moribund at best. Remember, according to him sub 2% GDP growth was the "new norm". Since trump the economy has boomed. Once again, that is not an opinion. That is a fact.

I have friends in the antique car and airplane markets. Under obama they were all DOWN. Under trump they are increasing sales year over year. That's because people have excess money to spend. The sale of unnecessary items is the best indicator of how healthy an economy is. When it is bad people only buy things they need.

Trump supporters like myself don’t care about Economic issues. We are far more interested in Social Issues.

I.e., controlling people and getting in their personal business.

Peaked at 2.9% quarter growth under Obama. Same for trump until q1 2019, when it reached 3.1%. Clearly it's a continuation of the economy passed down to him. Well, fueled by some heavy payouts to offset the damage caused by the moronic tariffs.

Me, living my Moral life doesn’t damage you living your Immoral life. You can’t say that your Immoral life doesn’t negatively impact my Moral life. Society cannot continue in a a decent way when Immorality is allowed to continue unabated.

Once again for the mathematically challenged, 2% growth in a Dow at 26,000 territory is larger than growth of 4% with the Dow at 8,000; 62% larger or so larger in real numbers. You left wing morons can't lie worth crap, just parrot dumb shit without ever checking it.

 

[Rustic]

What about people that want nothing to do with that shit?

They would vote,just like everyone else. What do you think makes you whiners so special? Nobody agrees with every single destination for their tax dollars. Again, what makes you crybabies so special? Grow up.

Lol
No one should be forced into socialist entitlement programs…

Nobody implies otherwise. And, try as you might to lie to yourself our loud, "social issues, when you say it, means controllingg people. Period. All so you can feel right with your imaginary sky daddy.

And yet we force you to pay into the programs i mentioned. The year 1800 called to remind you that your argument is stupid and overly general and already lost.

We pay into a lot of things we don’t support... that’s life.

That being said the collective is never right....

This Thread Op is 100% lies, propaganda, and fake news. There is no Trump downturn. The Op just pulled that out of his ass. We have a booming economy and the lowest unemployment numbers in 50 years. This thread should be locked because it is based on a 100% fabrication. You might as well start a thread saying that John F Kennedy just landed on a UFO.

Lol....but nobody thinks that s0n!!. The Obama economy was a joke.....even Obama said himself, "This is the new normal!" Duh

I don’t believe in controlling people. I believe in executing them. There’s a significant difference.

Fed Ex is down because Amazon, its biggest customer, is buying its own shipping fleet, and Fed Ex is dropping their special deals with them. Even if one doesn't like reading real news, at least read the WSJ Weekend edition so you can stay partly informed and not rely on parroting stupid stuff from Democratic Underground or Daily Kos.

 

[leftwinger]

What did Obama change exactly?

He changed nothing, but ardent leftists haven’t figured that out yet.

He made matters worse, which is why we have Donnie. He started or continued seven wars, bailed out the criminals on Wall Street, blow up the national debt and was world history’s greatest arms dealer, and increased concentration of wealth to his buddies in the 1%.

During BO they transferred $33B cash into GM to keep union jobs open. The cars are not great at GOVT motors and trouble seems straight ahead for them?

They also finagled the phony stimulus dollars ($790B) and transferred most of that to GOVT to stay afloat until hard-working Americans figured out how to produce more from less.

Local Chevy dealer insists GM means Government Motors. They say it entices the liberal elite to buy BIG overstuffed, underpowered SUVs. The ones with the highest profit margins.

Kinda like that hope and change BS.

Obama gave us change and stability, its just that you white bastards was too busy hating to realize how good he made this country after Bush. I live for the day, your entire race is out numbered in this country and around the world....every place you people thrive, eventually implodes because of greed and racism....its in your DNA

Lol
Getting along is way overrated

I don't care if blacks and whites ever get along. What I care about is that we get off this one is a victim of the other....we're all victims of greed and neglect from our leaders.

 

[RoshawnMarkwees]

Awesome! We’re headed for ruin! Isn’t that great?!?!
This means trump won’t be re-elected and everything will just keep getting worse!
Fucking awesome!!

Rightwinger, I can't help this sense of deja vu. Remember when Bush and all his cronies kept saying "The economy is sound!", especially that Kudlow dupe, while For Sale signs were popping up like mushrooms across the land? Now, once again, Republicans are touting the economy and unemployment figures, but I keep reading articles like this one:

Popular Stores Partially Or Fully Closing In 2019

I'm still devastated that my closest 'bestie' Lowe's is 35 miles away after two outlets closed in my community.
