3.7 GDP Growth

[Muhammed]

The new president's first quarter is actually the last president's last quarter (Obama). And it was 1.2.

Funny how the Right sung a very different tune when Obama was elected. Back then Obama owened the economy 5 months before he took office!!!

March 2, 2009
RUSH: To say that Obama has been in office only one month is not accurate from an effect on the world and an effect on the country standpoint. Barack Obama has been the controlling political authority on the economy for six months.

Rush is a mental midget. All he does is rant on and on for hours on end about how liberals suck. And because of him, and a bunch of other radio blowhards such as Hannity, many people believe that the Democrats are liberals, when nothing could be further from the truth. Actual liberals support laissez-faire economic policy and the Democratic party supports totalitarian economic interventionism. There is absolutely nothing liberal about totalitarian Democrats.

All of these idiots who rant about liberals fail to understand that they are "liberals", not actual liberals.

So many definitions have flown out the window that ranting about them all would be all one could do. You are correct about the word 'liberal', especially as the term is used in British/European, rather than U.S., English. This will fall, however, upon the deaf ears of those who choose to disorient argument by destroying the sense of vocabulary.

 

[JakeStarkey]

Yup, ad hom because you can't rebut it with facts.

Facts ? Facts need to be intelligible. That requires being sober, and not posting messy posts.

So an ad hom demonstrates a poster does not have facts.

 

[JakeStarkey]

These two definitions are false: "Actual liberals support laissez-faire economic policy and the Democratic party supports totalitarian economic interventionism." Neither Dems nor Pubs are totlitarian economic interventionists, and while libertarians support "laizzez-faire economic policy," liberals do not.

The economy topped 4 percent several times during Obama's regime.

Obama never had an ANNUAL GDP of at least 3% and was the FIRST POTUS in history to "achieve" this dubious distinction.

Tramp has never had an ANNUAL GDP of at least 3% and is the FIRST POTUS in history to "achieve" this dubious distinction after having been handed an economy that was NOT in a major recession.

Liar, you're talking about Obama.

Nope, Obama was handed an economy that was in the worst recession since the Great Republican Depression. Tramp was handed an economy at full employment, with a rising stock market and rising wages, and yet Tramp has STILL been completely unable to produce an ANNUAL GDP of 3%.

Obama is the only POTUS to never get a 3% GDP. Even the ones who died in their first term.

Now you are just lying, Obama has had 5.2% GDP, something Tramp has never even gotten close to.

 

[K9Buck]

Obama has had 5.2% GDP...

When did Obama have a 5.2% GDP?

 

[edthecynic]

Trump is the FIRST non-politician since Ike to be elected president. He wants to improve the quality of life for ALL Americans and the American left despises him for it. Why?

First of all, Tramp has been a politician since 1999 when the loser first ran for president. Secondly, Tramp doesn't give a shit about any American.
And thirdly the whole world despises the pathological liar.

 

[edthecynic]

Trump ran on a platform of improving the economy and putting Americans first. What is your issue with that platform?

The issue is not the platform, the issue is Tramp is a pathological liar so therefore any "platform" he promotes is meaningless.

 

[edthecynic]

Obama has had 5.2% GDP...

When did Obama have a 5.2% GDP?

Q3 2014, how is it that the Right, who call everyone else "low-information voters" doesn't know that?????
Now when has Tramp gotten any quarter even near 5.2%????

GDPNow - Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta

Latest forecast: 4.0 percent — May 9, 2018
The GDPNow model estimate for real GDP growth (seasonally adjusted annual rate) in the second quarter of 2018 is 4.0 percent on May 9, unchanged from May 3. The nowcasts of second-quarter real consumer spending growth and second-quarter real private fixed investment growth inched down from 3.1 percent and 5.6 percent, respectively, to 3.0 percent and 5.4 percent, respectively, after Friday's employment report from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. The nowcast of the contribution of inventory investment to second-quarter real GDP growth increased from 0.67 percentage points to 0.78 percentage points after this morning's wholesale trade release from the U.S. Census Bureau.

I love how you rubes will quote a projection but never come back at the end of the quarter when the projection is off by more than 50%

Economy growing........Under TRUMP.....

Poor Liberals.............now go and say your daddy Obama did it. LOL

More fake news...here is the GDP growth for the last year..

 

[Dragonlady]

Growing because all the jobs that the illegal pieces of crap were getting are now going to Americans.

We should be growing as the data is now going on the book instead of being done underhanded for cheap.

If there’s all these jobs now going to Americans, why are so few new jobs being created? Job creation is way down from Obama's Administration.

 

[Meathead]

Now you are just lying, Obama has had 5.2% GDP, something Tramp has never even gotten close to.

The only things that grew by 5.2% in the Obama years were illegals, food stamp enrollment and Michelle's ass.

You are full of shit, jackass. I know that people like you tend to avoid books like the plague and get all of your information from kleptocratic purple Flavoraid mongering slavemasters who you foolishly believe have your best interests at heart even though they disrespectfully snicker and evilly cackle like Hillary at your kind behind your back because they can so easily brainwash your simplistic feeble mind.

However, if you ever decide to unchain your mind and want to become educated about liberal philosophy, I suggest that you visit a local library and obtain a library card. There are many public libraries where you can get one for free and they will let you borrow books. And other libraries will give you a card for a small fee. For instance, you can obtain a library card at the University of Michigan for only about $350/year.

Check out some enlightenment era tomes by liberal philosophers such as Emmerich de Vattel, John Locke, Hugo Grotius. And of course, Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations.

 

[Pilot1]

Average GDP growth under Obama was only 1.075%. Pathetic. He was a horrible "president" for our economy, and country.

 

[AntonToo]

Trump knows our economy. Nobama clearly didn't.

Is that why stock market is down for the year and economic growth is still at 2.x annualy?

Trump knows how to scam people...like he scammed you into thinking he has any understanding at all of macro-economics.

 

[jknowgood]

Growing because all the jobs that the illegal pieces of crap were getting are now going to Americans.

Do you have a source of VALID data to validate that statement?

We should be growing as the data is now going on the book instead of being done underhanded for cheap.

Could you please provide a decoder ring to decrypt that statement?

Try the news.

As long as you skip CNN, BSNBC, NBC, CBS & ABC you MIGHT find a clue.

Well Gramps (or is that your pseudonym Jessica), help me out and fill me in on which fucking data in which fucking book would display the data of "underhanded for cheap" data and headcount. Oh, and don't forget to clue me in on the fucking Agency in possession of that fucking book! I don't speak stupid and I'll need you as a go between to interpret!

You do a fine quick draw on the fatuous bullshit when piggybacking an empty headed and vacuous post substituting your own stupidity for added hilarity! What the Hell are you doing up so late?

Go to your nearest cry room, snowflake.

It almost sounds like you're rooting for economic failure just so you can point at Trump.
