Trump is very good for the economy
He was when he stayed out of it, then he started his stupid trade war and put the markets into a 230 plus day freeze.

Trump is very good for the economy
Reality check. In the seven months since steel and aluminum tariffs the S&P's up 5.3%, the Dow's up 7.2%, and the NASDAQ's soared over ten percent:...he started his stupid trade war and put the markets into a 230 plus day freeze....

If Trump is still POTUS in 2023, if the economy is doing well, it will be because of Obama p.
If it’s doing poorly, it will be Trumps fault. We already know the narrative.
Shit it already happened. Obama is trying to take credit for this good economy, but if it was bad, it would be Trumps fault.
AFTER tax income has NOT kept up with the TRUMP Inflation.That, of course, has nothing to do with the unassailable fact that the 2.9% increase in wages is BEFORE tax income.Wages went up 2.9% BEFORE taxes, so after tax income has not kept pace with inflation! So it is NOT a wash!
Wages went up 2.9% BEFORE taxes, so after tax income has not kept pace with inflation! So it is NOT a wash!
Taxes were cut, so after tax income did go up.
You are just trying to lie your way out of the fact that AFTER tax income has NOT kept up with the TRUMP Inflation. As a TrumpTard you can NEVER admit the truth about anything!
Liar!

Real Disposable Personal Income: Per Capita
The key word in your chart is,,,per capita. If four families made $59 thousand a year and one family made $1 million, the per capita would be $240,000.
Let's look at the big picture, shall we?

If you have some stats that help prove Ed's claim, "AFTER tax income has NOT kept up with the TRUMP Inflation" Please post it.
If four families made $59 thousand a year and one family made $1 million, the per capita would be $240,000.
Per household would be $247,200.
Share of income declining doesn't mean their income is declining.
Or that their after tax income isn't keeping up with inflation.

In Donald J Trump's Inauguration Speech, Trump said,,,.
"The forgotten men and women of our country will be forgotten no longer," he told the crowd as a light drizzle settled over Washington. "And I will fight for you with every breath in my body, and I will never, ever let you down."
Trump is now president: 'The forgotten ... will be forgotten no longer'
The "forgotten" continue to lose in the economy. They make up about 70% of the American population. There wades remain flat.

Trump's global trade war: A timeline
By Rebecca Taylor, news reporter
April 2017
Mr Trump announces an investigation into steel tariffs, asking if the imports from China and other countries could be a threat to national security.
August 2017
A second investigation specifically targets China.
January 2018
Mr Trump announces tariffs on imported solar panels, most of which come from China, and washing machines.

Why do I care about what SkyNews says.
Trump’s first tariffs were levied on 22 Jan. Even though it was on small things it showed investors that he was actually dumb enough to follow through on his threats.

Yeah, and they didn't do too groovy under Obama.
At least Trump cut their taxes. And is trying to reduce the number of illegals who suppress their wages.
Let's look at their real earnings 12 months from now to see if your whining should continue.
Everyone has their own idea of "booming". Some folks care about GDP--You have an odd idea of booming....Get over it princess. The Trump economy is booming.

It absolutely is everything to folks who don't do numbers and only look at the pictures.Perspective is everything...
Those people will look at the post # 96 set and the others in post # 95 and say one is true and the other is false. Someone who understands numbers will see that they're both true.
As for post # 97 a numbers person won't waste his time w/ partial info and the picture person will say "oooh gee, more pix I don't understand..."
But that's not what we were talking about. The fact remains that if we say a 'boom' is GDP growth, low unemployment, or rising wages we got numbers and we got pictures. Personally, numbers work better for me but I understand that pictures are more fun --so to each his own.
