GDP Hits 4.1 %! In Second Quarter

Lexus says "Get over it." How presumptuous. Here's hoping both Clintons fade into history sooner than later. This isn't about what happened when President Clinton lied about sex with an intern, though that incident destroyed my faith in his judgement. No mater how brilliant he is -and those who dealt with him acknowledge this- it was irrelevant at that point. I have heard Bill Clinton speak a number of times and he is, no doubt, an unusually intelligent man and a gifted speaker, but fuck him. His gifts were compromised by his weaknesses that he embraced rather that fought off. Back to President Trump, the man leading our nation at this moment. His sloppy discourse, his reckless use of information, his carelessness, his arrogance...this concerns me, like Clinton's two-sidedness worried me.

Apparently, you prefer form over substance.

A lot of folks do, also, so, if it makes you feel more "validated," then you have lots of company.

They voted for Obaminable also: called "identity politics"!

So an empty suit occupied the People's House for eight years and his heiress-apparent got the shit kicked out of her in 2016 along with her predator want-a-be-"First Gentleman" who apparently thought he would get to be a closet President for another eight.
I prefer form, substance and ethics.
I prefer someone who can hold onto a staff. Loyalty to Trump is practically non-existent. There's a reason for this. I refer you to Manafort. Cohen. Bannon.
I prefer someone who doesn't disrespect others by calling them crude and childish names.
I prefer someone who doesn't lie every day of the week.
I prefer someone who can relate to regular people.
Not a gold plated, silver spoon whose entire life has been all about seeking more and more money and more and more superficial pleasure and more and more lavish living.
The inconsistency and inability of this administration to solve pressing problems is astonishing.
Remember when Mr. Kushner was going to navigate the way to peace in the Middle East and solve the opioid crisis. What a bunch of baloney. Laughable, really. Remember when our president ridiculed his predecessor for playing too much golf? That's truly laughable. Trump is Bill Clinton with more money, more greed, less tact, less civility, and much less command of the English language. That's it. That's how I feel about the man. Comparing Donald Trump to Bill Clinton is not flattery.
No president in my life time has inspired and caused more distrust, more embarrassment, more uncertainty, more worry than Donald Trump. There's are good reasons for this. Not everyone feeling the way I feel is a Clinton lover or a member of the fake news (does that include Trump's pal David Pecker?) or is a myopic Democrat. By the way, I think myopic Democrats are as useless as myopic Trump supporters. We will move beyond all of them, as we must.

I detest Bill Clinton. I find him to be as two-faced and phony as Donald Trump.
This isn't about Bill Clinton.
This isn't the most recent past president, either.
This is about the current president, and how he misleads, deceives, and wildly, recklessly exaggerates.
How can you feel comfortable with anything he says when so much of what he says is not true?
Where I live a man is judged to be as good as his word.
Trump's word is unreliable.

Then your fucking ilk had the audacity to back Slick Willie the Perjuring Sexual Predator's chief enabler -- hildebeest the lying bitch -- for the office of president, Muy Loco. FYI. Muy Loco, hildebeest was running her fat mouth in public just last weekend.



Trump is a 1000 times better than hildebeest 24-7-365, Muy Loco.

BOT, I'm reading the market hasn't taken off because the expectation was 5% GDP growth! Looking on the street here in Houston, I see a TON of new higher end cars on the road.

Comrade IIFFOFRDB, That video of the steel worker crying was moving.

There are more than a few people at Mid Continent Nail and REC Silicon who are crying because they lost their jobs. Look for them to be joined by American workers at Harley Davidson, GM, Ford, BMW and many other companies if the tariffs currently in place continue. There will be significant net jobs lost if the new tariffs don't go away soon. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce forecasts as many as 2.6 million jobs will be lost if Trump follows through on threatened tariffs, including 1.8 million from NAFTA withdrawal.

Ms. Ocasio Cortez:

Lies like Obama
Has no clue, like Obama
Has no magic wand, like Obama
Wants to tax the wazoo out of anybody and anything, like Obama
Would extort money from banks and companies and funnel it to her activist friends, like Obama
Wants to send gasoline prices way up high (it’s the Carbon tax, you know?), like Obama.
Would destroy health care, like Obama tried (high premiums, high deductibles = no care = death panels)
Loves socialist activists. If she doesn’t know the answer to a question she’ll check with activists, like Obama, or dream one up (she adores professor Gruber, like Obama).

We already tested the original (Empty Chair or Empty Suit). The original activist became president and nearly destroyed America. Who would want to try a bad copy in the House of representatives?

these are Obama's numbers, 4 times. only 2 times he has had 2 consecutive quarters over 4.1. some people have lost persepective on this and are nitpicking.



On average, he never got over 3% annually on gdp. He presided over a weak economy.

Bailout/Infusion of Government funding are considered in determining the Gross Domestic Production. So to compare "apples and apples" one would have to extract from the computation the "bailout" and Federal spending to "boost" the economy that was injected in the first part of the Obaminable administration. What else can explain the spike between 2008 and 2009?

An example is Solyndra. The manufacture of solar panels based on the infusion of government money contributed to the GDP, just like the purchase of used clunkers in exchange for the acquisition of new units was added to the GDP.

Funny money and fake stats creating the illusion of a "good economy" ... much like the Clinton-Gore administration did in 2000 to cook the labor statistic books.
