Thank you, Trump, for great economy

Declining home prices is BAD. Building affordable houses is good. We dont want people to lose equity genius. Did any of you go to school?

Declining home prices is GOOD. All the young families who have been priced out of the market have a better chance to start to buy and build equity, genius,

Consumer spending is up BECAUSE inflation is making life difficult AND BORRWING IS UP. Consumers are locked into record debt under Trump using credit cards to buy food and gas. They spiked $44B in just the 4th quarter and that was BEFORE the gas spike. Credit scores FELL last year

Inflation is now 3%. We are still feeling the effects of Biden’s 9%.

We are in a disastrous death spiral of rising costs, low job growth, credit pinch, and rising inflation. Anyone posting this is a good economy is either ignorant, lying, or a cult member. When right wing rags use "resilience" as the adjective of the economy.. that isnt good. That means it’s stressed and less bad than one would think. LOL You guys crack me up.

We have record low unemployment, a growing GDP, record stock market, income growth outpacing rent increases, and middle-class taxpayers got a nice refund thanks to Trump’s tax cuts.

Seniors and the working class have especially enjoyed added tax benefits.

Anyone trying to scare people into thinking the economy is bad is a braineashed leftist, seeing the mid-terms approaching.

Dow futures are up again this morning!

I am making money hand over fist. My investments support me and the best is yet to come. Trump has laid the foundation for strong economy after Biden tried to wreck it. We had the lowest unemployment report since 1960 and jobs created now a real private jobs not useless government jobs. When the war settles which is sooner then later the DOW takes off

 

[1srelluc]

Rising prices, frozen job market, 70% of Americans facing deteriorating financial situations.

Thank you, Trump!

No worries....It's transitory....You rubes bought that hook, line, and sinker before, why not now?

Except this time it's true.

Me too. I’m living off my investments, plus social security, and I have MORE now than I did a year ago.

And I agree…just wait until we finish off Iran. The stock market will take another massive leg up.

We had a brain dead one for four years. When were gas prices going to drop with that clown in office? Never.

Brain dead Trump's term going on 6 years and fuel prices aren't going to drop until, he gets his vanity ballroom built.

Declining home prices is GOOD. All the young families who have been priced out of the market have a better chance to start to buy and build equity, genius,

Young people need affordable housing built. The country's economy will crash if home prices fall. Use your brain. 50% of a families wealth is tied up in real estate. Do the math smarty pants.

Inflation is now 3%. We are still feeling the effects of Biden’s 9%.

Inflation is HIGH. its 3.5% (keep up) and was only 2.9% when Trump took over.

We have record low unemployment,

No we dont.

a growing GDP,

2025 was a record low GDP year (outside of Trump's covid year) since the Great Recession.. and it is even lower so far in 2026.

record stock market,

The median family owns almost no stock - less than $10,000 per person which means a 10% gain is paltry and is needed for retirement which they have no money for. The wealthy do fine in recessions and boomtimes.

income growth outpacing rent increases,

Wage growth has been stagnant for decades. No president has changed that. The bottom are barely keeping up.

and middle-class taxpayers got a nice refund thanks to Trump’s tax cuts.

The one thing Republicans are good at is cutting taxes for the wealthy and corporations and selling it as a middle class tax cut. 70% of the tax benefit went to the wealthy and companies. The top 1% received MORE tax cuts than the entire bottom 60%. Real big brag Lisa.

Seniors and the working class have especially enjoyed added tax benefits.

The wealthy received the tax benefits. Seniors are the wealthiest demographic and on public assistance with SS and Medicare. Great work GOP.

Anyone trying to scare people into thinking the economy is bad is a braineashed leftist, seeing the mid-terms approaching.

Well lets check. Vast majority believe the economy is on the wrong track including 1 out of every 4 republicans.

Because your senile, retarded, dear leader keeps bragging about it.



NOW, we have to pay for it because your spineless cult loves getting ripped of by a grifting clown.

This thread is straight up gaslighting and propaganda.

If you listen to these useful idiots, they’ll tell you the economy was terrible under Biden and great under Trump, and post data which is no better or worse than it was under Biden.

For one, it’s straight up lie to say that unemployment is at a 60 year low. Unemployment is a point higher than what we saw under Biden and Trump. It’s not coming down, its slowly increasing.

GDP growth is not blowing anyone away at 2% or lower.

Inflation is up compared to 2024.

As for the stock market, it’s always setting record highs. It did under Obama. It did under Biden. It does under Trump. Using that as a measure of success is idiotic.

The economy is fine. It was fine when Trump took over and it’s still fine.

Stop with the propaganda.

Unfortunately the price of diesel is killing every god damned trucking company in the US.

Yes..

the government is spending $1.33 for every $1.00 it collects

And both crime families have long supported deficit spending to enrich their rich donors at the people’s expense. Yet another issue they are in lockstep with, among many others.

Mods. Please move this to the comedy section.

The numbers don’t like. The stock market and the economy are doing well, especially considering the conflict in Iran.

Maybe your “news” sources are just too biased to tell you the truth.

We see in CA and Minn which party abuses social programs to bribe supporters. Democrats

The economy was doing well in 2024 and 2016, during which time Trump and all his supporters were telling people it was an absolute disaster.

You’re too biased to see that.

Again, the numbers don’t lie. Yes, our economy is doing just fine and will flourish once the conflict is over and Iran is no longer a problem. Have you noticed the growth in the markets in April?

BTW, why is it that inflation is causing such a problem? Trump’s average inflation numbers are lower than Biden’s. They are very similar even if you take out high numbers from 2022. This is including tariffs and a conflict in Iran. Yeah, you don’t have a clue what you are talking about.

 

[berg80]

Yes, and you should stop doing it.


Stock market record high…..inflation a decent 3%…..consumer confidence high….income growth outpaces rent increases….housing prices decline….good GDP….consumer spending up…..tax refunds thanks to Trump….

and, we have neutered the Islamic terrorists and slammed the border shut to the illegals weakening our country.

Consumer sentiment hits record low, inflation fears rise amid Iran war​

Consumer sentiment hits record low, inflation fears rise amid Iran war

The university's headline index of consumer sentiment tumbled to 47.6, down 10.7% from March to its lowest on record.

www.cnbc.com

The 6 month average GDP growth is 1.25%.

Bonds yields have risen lately (meaning higher borrowing rates) reflecting growing concerns with higher inflation due to trump's il-considered decision to follow Bibi in to war.

Perhaps this would be a good time to ask yourself how you came to the conclusion that everything is rosy when the empirical data says otherwise. Could it be because.........rube?
