Obama set the table and trump pigs out

WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) — Consumer confidence surged in December to the highest level since 2001, reflecting an improved U.S. economy and anticipation of the incoming Trump administration, especially among older Americans.

The consumer confidence index jumped to 113.7 from a revised 109.4 in November, the Conference Board said Tuesday.

U.S. stock markets have rallied sharply to record highs since the surprise election of Donald Trump in November on the assumption that his administration will be good for business. The economy is also much improved, with the unemployment tumbling below 5%

“The post-election surge in optimism for the economy, jobs and income prospects, as well as for stock prices which reached a 13-year high, was most pronounced among older consumers,” said Lynn Franco, director of economic indicators at board.

In a tweet on Monday, the president-elect took credit for the market rally, suggesting that Americans have fresh hope after his victory.

Food stamps, unemployment and $14 Trillion in new debt drove the Obama economy. People voted in Trump because we know we can do better, that's why confidence is up

I guess spending all those trillions weren't to make a comeback from the huge recession ,,almost a depression by the last republican garbage president?

I'm guessing you think it went up because of something Obama did, instead of being because he is being replaced?

Explain how that works. Add 5 trillion and it caused a recession. Spend 10 trillion to try to get out of it. Makes no sense.
