I never said you were wrong. I said LustyLad was right. Look at the title of the thread, WTF Won't Bet Against the Trump Economy. If memory serves me correctly you plunged head over heals into shares in around the 2nd quarter of 2020, when Trump was president.

His bet was for 2018, I wanted to make it for 2018, 2019 and 2020. Which is a better true representation of Trumps GDP prowess? That is rhetorical. So the title of his thread is misleading. Similar to asking for a yes /no answer to the Question: Do you still beat your wife?

Now that silliness has been put to rest, let's address my bet on the economy, Trump's economy as you called it. I did purchase 20k shares of a midstream and 5k shares of ExxonMobil in March of 2020.

That is a stretch to say I bet on the Trump economy. I bet on the energy sector. Be like saying Micro and Macro mean the exact same thing all the time. I was betting on Trump not being President for 4 more years if anything!

I increased my midstream in December of last year by another 30k shares...was that a bet on the Biden economy? I would argue....hardly.

But a look back at what was said was that twiddle dumb and twiddle dumber were running around crowing about one fucking quarter of Trump getting over 3%.

I proposed a true bet that an economist would appreciate...a actual true one anyway. one backed by time. So we would not piss our pants over blips or anomalies.

By any stretch of honesty, integrity and a simple understanding of past GDP numbers....lustylad and his Q sidekick bambino were wrong. Woefully so in 2019. In fact discounting 2020...if you look at Obama's last three years against Trumps first 3 years you'll find little difference in GDP numbers.
... tsk, tsk... Excuses... Excuses...

Who are you tryin' to convince - the lads here OR YOURSELF?? ...

You and Tiny are doing lustylad no favors by misrepresenting what has been said without proper context. By doing so....I get to continually revisit how wrong lustylad was

Send CaptainMidnight a PM if he won't respond to your weak bait.

And stop bumping 4-year-old threads and stop accusing others of your own turpitude.

YOU are the poster boy for misrepresentation and improper context.

And when it comes to being wrong, you evidently enjoy being as wrong as wrong can be. Constant repetition of a falsehood doesn't make it true. Even a simple-minded simpleton like you ought to be able to figure that out.

Of course you do not want anyone to search your past posts to see how you were caught up on the Donnie Trump bandwagon!

Care to explain how you got it so wrong?

How can a country bumpkin such as myself continually out prognostic you and yours?

At least your not like bambino and running around for the last year and half squawking about how the election was stolen and Trump would soon be reinstated!

Not much to be proud of but your not in total idiotville.

Plus....I've been doing great since Joey B has been on the scene.

The Trump economy was just an extension of the Obama economy. The eccie repubtards won't except (sic) the facts. The data is (sic) the data. Originally Posted by adav8s28

Why do you keep repeating the same discredited falsehoods?

Why do you make me bitch-slap you over & over again for saying the same dumb thing?

Do you enjoy being utterly refudiated all the time?

Yes, the data are the data. And here's what the GDP growth data told us. It was already fully explained to you in tiny's "how are we gonna pay for all this shit" thread.


Trump averaged 2.5% annual growth in his first 3 years of office, before covid hit. Obama averaged 2.2% real GDP growth in his last 7 years of office (2010-2016). To be fair, I excluded Obama's first year (2009) when he was weighed down by the recession he inherited. Of course, a non-economist like you would say a difference of 0.3% is no biggie, so their GDP records are "practically the same". In reality, that three-tenths of one percent is huge. It translates into $630 billion in lost output in a single year. Over ten years, that adds up to $6.3 trillion (actually more, since it compounds) in less income for our country. Which also means significantly lower tax revenues for dim-retards like you to fund all your crazy and corrupt green new deal boondoggles. Originally Posted by lustylad

But I've had to make an exception for my Trump loving comrades here.

Simply grasp the notion that I can be doing wonderfully well financially and the President, no matter who it is, can be having a tough go of it.

Mr. T Rump has not been able to figure that out. How many times has he repeated the false words of MASSIVE election fraud...and he continues to this day.

That makes him a simple minded simpleton that you and the Trumpites worship.

Even the media that supported him are now cutting off his phone and tv interviews when he starts repeating it.
