[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I doubt OP's veracity. We get treated to one of these moronic lying threads several times a day. Actually, far and away atrump voters did so from fear of immigrants and brown people. [/quote]

+1, this has been shown several different ways. Trump voters were overwhelmingly voting on culture, race and immigration, not economics.[/quote]

The economy had been recovering tremendously under Obama.  But you'd never hear that on FOX News, instead it was all BS about "the REAL unemployment rate is 35%" and "what a horrible month of job creation, Obama only created 250,000 jobs this month, bah" nonsense and spin.  The "economy" argument being made by the right wing has been fake all along.[/quote]
Well of course an economy would recover after a deep recession. It's just the cyclical nature of it. But a president can either help or hinder a recovery depending on his polices, and [b]Obama's were not business-friendly[/b]. Hence,[b] the slowest recovery on record[/b]. Now look what happened when a pro-business president took over. We are at 3% growth and a 25% YOY increase in the market. But you'd never hear that on CNN.[/quote]

Oh, I'm well aware of the market (and you are overhyping it) - yes, CNN does in fact have good coverage, not that I get my news from CNN anyhow - I get my news from a wide variety of sources, as most liberals do, instead of right wing "CNN, NBC, and the rest are fake news liberal propaganda" kinds of deliberate aversion to anything other than FOX and Breitbart.  The things I bolded are pure bullshit talking points confabulated by the right wing.  Business did just fine under Obama.  Even the Koch brothers more than doubled their holdings and net worth under Obama even though they were theoretically in the crosshairs of Obama's supposed "war on business."  But apparently in the bizarro world of conservatism, doubling your wealth is "anti-business."   If more than doubling my wealth is bad for me then you can be bad to me any day of the week.

Trump has not enacted even one single piece of policy that can account for growth and most of what's happened under Trump is nothing more than a continuation of the same rates of recovery that were already happening under Obama.  Wishful thinking on your part there.[/quote]
