Some simple questions for Trump supporters

[Hum Dinger]

We all know that one of Trump's main campaign issues was criticism of the economy under Biden. The assumption seemed to be that the economy would get better under Trump and due to trump's policies.

But if you voted for Trump based on that, please answer the following questions:

1. Was the economy better in 1993 when Clinton took office or in 2001 when he left office?

2. Was the economy better in 2001 when Bush took office or in 2009 when Bush left office?

3. Was the economy better in 2009 when Obama took office or in 2017 when Obama left office?

4. Was the economy better in 2017 when Trump took office or in 2021 when Trump left office?

5. Was the economy better in 2021 when Biden took office or now in 2024?

Do ya see a pattern here?

Do ya think that perhaps you've been dup'd again?

Let the lame excuses begin!

The former GOP you can argue about. If not for covid, Americans would have been in a great situation though I agree he must cut down on your deficit and debt. This is true for any president.

Lefties have short memories but the 2009 collapse of the economy happened when democrats took control of the "House Banking Committee' and Barney Frank became chairperson. The scam that was perpetrated under the Clinton administration where bad mortgage loans would be combined with good loans and sold as good loans finally took Fannie Mae under and the economy with it. The fear among the American majority that elected Trump in an electoral landslide is that democrats will create some dirty trick in the next 70 days to punish Americans for electing Trump.

The economy grew in 2018 but that growth slowed in 2019 and things were looking a little shaky as Trump’s trade wars started to affect industry. Not sure what would have happened if not for COVID but the economy was not firing on all cylinders.

The subprime crisis originated in private lenders, had little to do with Fannie Mae.

Your wasting your time. Trumptards are too stupid to c o their own research so they believe whatever BS far right blogs and propaganda sites tell them, and according to those sites, Biden has collapsed the economy worse than Hoover and Bush combined.


They don't care about the real numbers. They are Trump's loyal sheep who will believe whatever they are told.

 

[Donald H]

Enough of the election politicing bullshit. Trump is going to work with Russia and China and can admit it now that it won't lose him votes. The entire world, including the US are going to be better off for that!

They don't care about the real numbers. They are Trump's loyal sheep who will believe whatever they are told.

The only research I need is $500 food bills. Housing unaffordable and gas at $4.50 a gallon

Gather round to watch the Cognitively Rigid Sheeple try to defend the worst Merican President ever .

The only dementia ridden old man who wet his trousers in front of the Pope .
Who later farted so loudly that Queen Camilla could not stop laughing .
Who managed to repeatedly fall going up the stairs of his plane.

He also held the world record for public Brain Freezes

Why did Fannie and Freddie subsidize those private lenders' irresponsible behavior?

It was getting slightly better in 2019 but was still bad compared to wear it was in 2016. He wasn't doing much to keep up with the gains that happened after Obama. Then the pandemic destroyed it. Without the pandemic, I don't think it would've ended up as bad and we wouldn't have the inflation we did. The Stimulus that both Trump and Biden put out were always going t o drive inflation up.

The issue i have is that conservatives tend to judge the economy (at least when a Democrat is in office) on the deficit and the national debt.


Clinton added around 7 trillion yothe debt in 8 years...

Obama added around 7 trillion to the debt in 8 years...


Trump added around 7 trillion you the debt in 4 years, and saw a deficit as high as 4-5 trillion.

ever hear of the Community Reinvestment act ??

 

[MisterBeale]

 

[Marener]

Why did Fannie and Freddie bail out those private lenders' irresponsible behavior?

Because the subprime mortgages drove up property values, when it crashed, people lost jobs and property values tanked which affected all lenders, even if they were being very responsible.

Since that bailout, they’ve paid back all the money to the government and then some.

 

[Marener]

ever hear of the Community Reinvestment act ??

Yep. It’s the scapegoat conservatives desperately try to blame for the subprime crisis but has almost nothing to do with it as the CRA did not regulate the vast majority of the dealers who made subprime mortgages.

The last time we had 26% inflation was probably under Jimmy Carter. One thing you completely fail to understand is that Trump got a lot of votes from people who were not actually "Trump supporters". They were simply done with Biden/Harris.

Gas is $2.70 was where I live. And hasn't been over 3.50 for well over a year.

And grocery prices are down here too

Its 2024.... welcome to the now....

 

[Marener]

Its 2024.... welcome to the now....

Now we have low unemployment, declining interest rates, under control inflation, wage growth and economic growth.

Trump is going to take credit for all of that despite having nothing to do with it.

So you think it's just coincidence that there is a major economic collapse at the end of every Republican's term?

Guess again!
