Trump to move US embassy to Jerusalem.

How would you know?

#1: We're establishing a military base in Israel. #2: The Israelis have contributed to our incursions over there since they set up shop in 1949-50. #3: They are our only reliable ally in the area. Originally Posted by LexusLover

Yes, Trump has done a fine job on the economic front since he's been in office but whereas Obama took over a country in a deep recession, Trump inherited a vibrant economy and has moved it forward.

Obama’s GDP average for his 8yrs was 1.5%. Worst in 70yrs. Trump lifted the Obama regs and it’s humming over 3%. After the tax cuts, look for 4% GDP or higher. Then Trump will work on infrastructure. You know, the shovel ready jobs that Obama admitted weren’t shovel ready? Just like Obama’s red line that Trump cleaned up. Where did all that “stimulus” money go Speedy? Maybe to those “learned” people you speak of!!!!!!!!

As I recall Obama said it looked like 2% GDP was going to be the new norm.


Early into his administration, Trump’s policies are already restoring growth. Real GDP grew 3.1 percent in the last quarter, up more than 50 percent from the average for the eight years that Obama was president.

In Trump’s first six months in office, more than a million new jobs were created, driving unemployment down to a 16-year low. The stock market set 34 new record highs, with headlines just last week screaming “Dow Races Through 23,000.”

The Conference Board’s Consumer Confidence Index rose to nearly a 16-year high, as did Bloomberg’s Consumer Comfort Index, both contributing to soaring retail sales. The National Association of Manufacturers Outlook Survey rocketed to a record 91.4 percent, the highest two quarter average for manufacturing optimism in the survey’s 20-year history.

The single most organizing principal of any society is for War. That's why Military defense spending is a high dollar item next to entitlement programs ,which Obama increased the number of recipients from 22million to 47million. As far as job creation , what jobs did Obama create? The unemployment rate was hovering around 12-15% and still is. I don't know where you get your information but it's way off.

Jim

this guy looks unhappy with Trump's decision ..





bahhahaaaaa

Unemployment rate went from 10% to 4.6% under Obama.

Then why did the "employed rate" remain about the same, hovering in the high 50%? Furthermore, it was mentioned many times that under Obaminable the BLS was counting part-time jobs as "a job" and when someone had 2 part-time jobs it was counted as 2 people working. Clinton-Gore cooked the books just as bad in 2000, particularly in October 2000 when the BLS used the same states from September 2000. The AFL-CIO went ballistic over the Clinton administration lying and finally published a correction after the elections. In 2001 the economists "corrected" the assessment and the admitted the recession began in the spring of 2000.

It's a "liberal thing"!

BTW how many of those Obaminable jobs were created with Government money? .... Did you count all the Solyndra etc jobs? "We" know he was shoring up the health insurance company jobs and the health care industry with government money. To the tune of $10 trillion more in debt.

Under Bush, the DJIA dropped over his 8 years in office!!!!

Beginning and Endings, but in the middle of the Bush administration it took off after the recession of 2000 ended. It cratered in 2008 ...


11.3 million jobs were created under Obama.

Again ... Then why did the "employed rate" remain about the same, hovering in the high 50%? Furthermore, it was mentioned many times that under Obaminable the BLS was counting part-time jobs as "a job" and when someone had 2 part-time jobs it was counted as 2 people working.

Speedo reads and believes what he wants to read and believe. Like speed signs! According to him they don't mean anything unless a cop tells him to obey one, which means the cop has to see him SPEEDING!

That's even how he names himself: "SpeedRacer"!!!!

here's an inconvenient truth .. the markets are going strong and it's clear Business leaders at companies large and small have no doubts about Trump from a "bad for Business" point of view.

just the opposite.

Speedo regurgitates CNN et al talking points ramped up for HillariousNoMore's benefit, but doesn't bother to examine the statistical basis for the numbers and the underlying principles used to "CREATE" the appearance of the so-called "vibrant economy"!

Much like the Clinton-Gore administration did in 2000 by covering up a recession beginning in the Spring of 2000 and cooking the BLS books ... in the Fall of 2000 ... which resulted in the AFL-CIO screaming bloody murder and posting REAL UNEMPLOYMENT numbers on their website in December 2000 and Bill Clinton going ballistic over the Christmas holidays when Cheney stated in talk shows there first job was to get the economy back on course! Here's the PRIMARY DIFFERENCE .... in the transition:



Bush agreed with Obaminable to split the stimulus package so Obaminable would have around half of it at the beginning of his administration, but the hit was taken in Bush's administration.

Difference = CLASS! The Obaminable-Clinton group have none!

Obama’s GDP average for his 8yrs was 1.5%. Worst in 70yrs. Trump lifted the Obama regs and it’s humming over 3%. After the tax cuts, look for 4% GDP or higher. Then Trump will work on infrastructure.

Back to the GDP again? That seems to be all you've got. I point out 3 or 4 major positives under Obama and you point out a single statistic that is positive but not as positive as you would like it to be. Under Obama, GDP was over 4% in 4 quarters. 5.2% in one quarter. Again, Obama inherited a MESS. Trump inherited a vibrant economy and has moved it forward. We will see what happens to the GDP assuming the tax cuts go through. Many economists disagree with your opinion that the GDP will go higher.

"A Congressional Research Service report from 2012 argued that "the evidence does not suggest necessarily a relationship between tax policy with regard to the top tax rates and the size of the economic pie," although the document generated considerable backlash, largely among Republicans, who argued its methodology was flawed.

But a separate 2014 study from the Brookings Institution found that "many estimates suggest [tax reform's net impact on GDP growth] is either small or negative." The report suggested that "tax rate cuts may encourage individuals to work, save and invest, but if the tax cuts are not financed by immediate spending cuts, they will likely also result in an increased federal budget deficit, which in the long-term will reduce national saving and raise interest rates.""


So take your pick as to which opinion to believe.


The stimulus money? It seemed to work. The economy grew incredibly under Obama. I understand you don't like Obama. I don't like Trump. The difference between you and me seems to be that I will give credit where credit is due (Trump's positive impact on the economy in his 10+ months in office) and you continue to minimize the positive impact to the economy under Obama.
