The strength of the Trump economy.....it truly is amazing. This is why we need Trump in office.

[Brain357]

President Trump did achieve the 3% growth mark that Obama failed to achieve. Just checked the current BEA tables and indeed, even in the current release Trump has achieved 3% for 2018.

So indeed, Brain did lie about that.

You either don't understand economics or you lie as much as trump.
But the increase in gross domestic product hasn’t hit 3%. It was only 2.3% in 2017 and 2.9% in 2018, when the cuts kicked in. The U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis estimates only 2.3% for 2019. Overall, annual GDP growth under Mr. Trump has averaged only a few tenths of a point better than that of President Obama’s second term.

 

[Brain357]

I remember trump making fun of Obama for never hitting 3% growth. Last year trump hit 2.3% with a trillion dollar deficit and a really low interest rate. Now that is weak.

So how much more could it have grown? We had over a million more jobs than Americans to possibly do them. It doesn't get much better than that.

It grew much faster under Clinton and he balanced the budget. We can’t afford trumps slow economy. Trillion dollar deficit last year.

Clinton didn’t balance the budget Newt Gengrich and the other Republicans forced him to cut spending while he kicked and screamed about. In the end he was smart enough to try to take credit for republican actions. They didn’t call him “slick willie” for nothing.

Yet trump who inherited a strong economy and full republican control has increased deficits every single year. You repubs will believe anything.

Before the virus hit:

• Down to a 2.1% GDP growth
• NY Fed had to pour $1.5T into short term credit markets to keep things moving, 2019/early 2020
• Signed and applauded a massive spending bill that exploded the deficit/debt
• Bond yields had crashed over 50%
• Prolonged manufacturing recession

His "great economy" was bought, not created. But the faithful weren't told about that, and they sure as hell didn't look it up.

And with those deficits not sustainable . Clinton had a real economy.

Clinton had the .com boom and he tried to squander the money from the tax windfall.

It appears Brain is lying again. USA did achieve an over 3% growth in 2018, meaning president Trump will not be the second president to not have one fiscal year of 3% growth.


During 2018 (measured from the fourth quarter of 2017 to the fourth quarter of 2018), real GDP increased 3.1 percent, compared with an increase of 2.5 percent during 2017. The price index for gross domestic purchases increased 2.1 percent during 2018, compared with an increase of 1.9 percent during 2017.

Real gross domestic product (GDP) increased at an annual rate of 2.6 percent in the fourth quarter of 2018 (table 1), according to the "initial" estimate released by the Bureau of Economic Analysis. In the third quarter, real GDP increased 3.4 percent.

Compare how fast the unemployment is going down to Obama's. That's a miracle... and keep in mind, that is despite democrats doing everything they can to keep Americans out of jobs.

Obama was fixing a republican mess. Trump is dealing with his own mess.

Obama's mess was largely caused by idiotic leftists who believed everyone is as good paying back his mortgage, and therefore should have one. Naturally the banking scammers were all over taking advantage of such idiocy.

The mess was caused by republicans. Don't try to rewrite history.

That's a lie. The bubble was started under Clinton. The bubble was caused by everyone. Dotcom bubble was also caused under Clinton.

I think Trump's winning is damn great. GDP did not go dowin in the year 2019, not even close. Why are you lying?

GDP growth went down. A weak 2.3% with a trillion dollar deficit and historically low interest rates. Remember when trump made fun of less than 3% growth?

No it did not you moron.

Obama also had less people working during his second term. Huge job creation is easy to brag about when unemployment is high; even Trump is doing it. But it's phony because it's a lot easier for jobs to be created during such time than after we have a perfect economy. When you have the best economy in decades, jobs and growth are much harder to achieve.

The economy is down along with the rest of the world. Thanks to Trump's policies, at least we aren't still shut down, companies(leading to more layoffs and offshoring) and individuals aren't being over-taxed. Just imagine the economic state we would be in with a liberal in office. Total disaster, just like they want. More control over their minions.

Now, he has the worst economy in 80 years and must account for his inept handling of COVID

Along with the rest of the civilized world. Maybe their economic troubles are Trump's fault too. You guys will believe anything you are told.

I can’t agree. The liberals do nothing different. They all went along with the CARES Act which did little for most Americans, but further enriched rich Americans. Their approach to the virus was no different from Dumb Don’s.

It’s a one party system masquerading as a two party system, and they only care about serving the needs of the ultra wealthy. We live in a failed state.

Why are you still living in a failed state?

What do you suggest I do about it?

Move to somewhere whose government matches your dreams of an ideal government.

Do I have to? I thought the US was all about individual liberty and freedom of expression. You mean to tell me it isn’t?

That summarizes the opinion of many trumpettes. They don’t give a shit about their fellow Americans. Sad really.
