Q1 2019 watch - if under 3.0% - where is Trump’s economic miracle - can Trump beat O’s 2.9% ever?

[Mac1958]

Ha ha, fucking progs, I just don't get it. Polls aint worth a fuck to begin with. Combine that with approx. half those polled are conservatives or Demonicrats, go figure 50% of the dumb-shits polled thank O'bummer for Trump's achievements.
That and consider progs are most vocal, as they project and entertain a victim role. They're also bent over by media.

Polls aren't perfect, but they're fairly accurate. For example, they predicted a slim winning margin for Hillary in 2016, and that's what happened.

Talk radio isn't honest. It presents a distorted, terribly biased view of reality, creating its own little world of people who swallow what it's selling.

Yeah try again, the link doesn't show 2016. You lying dude?

Why are you lying? TrumpO was elected in 2016 and that is when your propagandIst admits the surge in manufacturing jobs started.

You can’t be so stupid to not get that referring to an event that took place in.2016 means the numbers 2 0 1 6 need not be typed in as well.

That is too stupid even for you. So guilty of lying you are today.

When I say you are lying today - your brain automatically associates the word “today” with the current year. I don’t have to type in the numbers for normal readers’ brains to comprehend the year something happened..

what utter bull crap you have to take Obama best year out of 8 and compare it to two years of Trump

You are a complete moron. Comparing best year to best year is based on TrumpO insisting we compare best single year to best single year.

So I did.

But you are a complete and utter moron beyond that. Obama set the pace for us to be living through the longest economic recovery and expansion in US history m

But every expansion has its share of downs.

So since TrumpO cut taxes in December 2017 to stimulate a high employment economy he got his GDP surge to hit in 2018 and came in at 2.9.

So you need to try to understand that comparing the single best of all seven recovery years under Obama to only TrumpO’s highly ‘stimulated year in 2018 is an advantage for TrumpO because his economic downturn has begun.

And one outlook for the rest of the year is not pointing to TrumpO’s promises of 4.0% GDP and higher becoming reality any time soon.

easyt65, post: 22164622,

Trump has accomplished economic and employment successes not seen in decades and accomplished more in 2 years than Obama did in 8...

There are two parts to your opinion.

#1 economic successes

#2 employment successes

Single year GDP growth is in my opinion the very best measure of (#1 economic success) and it was the measurement TrumpO himself used to define Obama’s economy as weak.

• "Obama is the first president in modern history not to have a single year of 3 percent growth," Trump said during an Oct. 28 campaign rally in Manchester, N.H. Trump's claim about Obama's weak economic growth is limited

So when you say Trump has accomplished economic successes not seen in decades, just exactly what in the hell are you blabbing about - calling people snowflakes and shit.

TumpO’s 2.9% single year high (TrumpO’s measure not mine) in 2018 is tied with Obama’s in 2015.

• After achieving 2.9 percent growth in 2018 — tied with 2015 for the strongest year of growth of the current business cycle.2019 U.S. Economic Outlook Q3 Update Forecasts 3.9% Expansion in Equipment and Software Investment and 2.5% GDP Growth

So your opinion regarding (#1 economic success) that TrumpO “accomplished more in 2 years than Obama did in 8” is not tied to objective facts or reality. It is your weak and feeble minded subjugation to TtumpO’s ceaseless style of self glorifying propaganda.

Obama slaughters TrumpO on (#2 employment successes) by reducing unemployment from 10 to under 5 giving TrumpO a much larger workforce to deal with at the start of his first term. That’s not even a contest just so you know. TrumpO continued well but that’s it. Your hype is unfounded.

Keep going on about the rate. But TrumpO was seven years removed from the Great Bush Recession and a couple years removed from severe unemployment when taking office.

More Americans getting paychecks contributes to high GDP.

And TrumpO had to know where the rate was going and needs to go in good economic times when his administration set this goal.

• "To get the economy back on track, President Trump has outlined a bold plan to create 25 million new American jobs in the next decade and return to 4 percent annual economic growth," reads the White House site. The 4% GDP promise is one that Trump has made before, but now it is the official promise of the White House and the president. Trump is officially making an economic promise that will be nearly impossible to keep

His bold plan including the deficit increasing tax cuts are not working and the TrumpO cultists are now blaming the Fed.

You are whining about Obama having a good rate without relating it to the size of the workforce and under consideration of other growth inhibiting factors such as Europe stuck in recession during much of Obama’s term,

So whine about the Fed all you want. The fact TRUMPO says 2.9 is weak and that’s all he could do with the very decent hand he drew is the reality you need to acknowledge or rensin duped.

If you must select a variable to make excuses for TrumpO’s inability to do better than Obama on single year GDP and the failure of his tax cuts to produce GDP above 2.9 then you have to look at all of the including the ones that suppressed GDP when Obama. You have to look at all of them.

Why don’t you.

TrumpO had a much larger workforce for example, more Americans with the ability to purchase stuff.

Trump supporters tell us your forecast?

What happens if Trump’s third year ends (GDP-wise) anywhere below Obama’s 2.9% in 2015?

According to Trump 2.9 is anemic and weak.

"Obama is the first president in modern history not to have a single year of 3 percent growth," Trump said during an Oct. 28 campaign rally in Manchester, N.H.

Trump's claim about Obama's weak economic growth is limited

Do you think Trump will be the second president in modern history not to have a single year of 3 percent growth,"

What does an “anemic” Trump do for Obama’s legacy?

• Moving forward, there are reasons to believe that growth will continue to be slower than was originally hoped. Annual U.S. GDP growth exceeding 3.0 percent, as experienced in the mid- to late 1990s and mid-2000s, is not expected to be attainable over the coming decade.

and will remind you Obama had next to 0% fed interest rates 0.25% to be exact and only could get to 2.9%
Trump got to 2.9 with 2.5% interest ten times higher then Obama

The same is true about you. You want to lower Obama's numbers by saddling him with the negative GDP he was handed by his predecessor. And 2.5% interest is still very low.

Golfing Gator, post: 22696041

I believe that the data comes from multiple disparate sources and that the BEA gathers them and provides the report in a timely enough manner.

Of course it does. And the NOWCAST I posted does exactly the same to produce timely and early forecasts.

The forecast at rhe end of Q2 is now at 1.4. I have not declared it to be the official final number nor do they.

But because it is at 1.4 and will become official thereabouts, I can say with great confidence that TrumpO will be the second president in US history never to have a single year GDP hugher than 3.0. He is tied with Obama’s highest single year at 2.9.

All things considered on the economy when comparing TrumoO’s two years to Obama's final seven years there is no significant difference between the two president’s policy effect on the economy.

If the current NOWCAST was sitting at 4.0 or hugher for Q2 2019 I couid not be confident saying TrumpO will not finish his first term with a single year GDP above 3.0 and thus keeping his word and doing better than Obama.
.
On top of that, I am absolutely positive that TrumpO will never see a single year at 4.O or higher. So if you are scoring presidents for hype and bullshit claims of fake greatness TrumpO is the winner of that.

You criticize forecasts based on science and real economic data but say nothing about the idiot goon in the White House making crazy forecasts about his greatness to be. Not even close to being greater than Obama on the economy and therefore nothing else.

Obama never disgraced the Presidency with such shameful, irresponsible self glory and hyie.

So on the style and character score we must rate Obama on that aspect for the economy much higher than TrumpO although the growth numbers are virtually the same so far.

Trump was able to reach 2.9% with a 2.5 interest rate ten times higher then when Obama reached his 2.9%

That's not true. The rate wasn't raised to 2.5% until December 19th, 2018, with less than 2 weeks left in the year. 2018 opened with the federal fund rate at 1.5%. So it's false to claim Trump reached 2.9% with a rate 10 times higher than Obama did. Who knows from where you get that crazy information?

Oh, and trump cut taxes and could do no better than Obama did in 2015 with higher taxes.

Trump is winning with 76% of the total polled. That's the thing with Trump, he always seems to be a step ahead in the game, and at times he doesn't even have to try.

Next closest is Gabbard, with 16% of the total polled.

Thanks for giving up so easy by demonstrating your only answer to polls you don't like is to feign apathy about them.
