And yet I pointed out the recession ended with the democrats in full control. You can pretend that doesn’t matter all you want but it is what it is.And yet you can’t explain how my OP is wrong.Hell Trump even said this back in 2016 and for once he is right: job growth and every other Economic metric is better under democrats. It’s something republicans want to pretend isn’t true, but reality is never something that has ever coddled their tender sensibilities.
For instance, Obama’s last three years had better job growth than Trump’s best year (2018).

BY JERE GLOVER -- By crucial metrics like GDP, job creation, business investment and avoiding recessions, the economy does a lot better with Democrats in the White House than with Republicans.www.forbes.com

ROTFLMAO
The first article I read simply made statements out of whole cloth. No statistics or anything to back them up.
Good grief.
For someone who is all over "critical thinking" you continue to show yourself to be anything but a critical thinker.
BTW: The first article's claims were total bullshit. The economy really took off after Obama left office. Obama stalled it out with his social programs potential. I worked for a multi-national that kept billions offshore because they were unsure of Obama.
Critical Thinking
No man, it's simple, PROGS generally apply false labels, definitions etc. to themselves, and they're often antonyms. Hence Billy's avatar.
Look around, a lot of PROGS sport pics of "intellects", it's amusing but a little sad.
I already did you idiot. I only needed to go as far as to educate you Demonicrats controlled congress into and during the last recession. You can lead a horse to water.
I suppose you could imagine this recession is Trump's fault, stuff like that, but who really takes Billy seriously? I wouldn't even expect PROGS to, dumb as many are, but they'll be sure to give you a high five anyway right.
Ended? Ha ha ha, your entire thread is TRASHED. First you said OMG, Democrats and ecomomy are awesome, but unfortunately I pointed out they had control of congress when we dove into and during the recession.
Then you have the audacity to suggest "yeah but but the recession ended under their control" You mean the stagnation that lasted for many years because your govt. of choice were under-achievers? How come the last year on Obama was so slow, then BOOM, Trump gets in and the market and economy boom?
Tell us what your Demonicrats did to pull us out of the last recession. I understand you're "critical thought guy", but I prefer details and something substantial over your feelings.
