aLet's be clear......this is what you choose to vote for????
1. America would fall back to this:
“Team Obama: Sorry, America, the ‘new normal’ may be here to stay
The good times may be over for good. In a speech to the Economic Club of New York yesterday, US Treasury Secretary Jack Lew said the US GDP growth rate, adjusted for inflation, is now projected to run a little above 2% a year.”

2. The hard working American taxpayer would pay for illegal alien's healthcare
3. There'd be no penalty for sneaking over the border.....no sovereignty.
4. The world's worst state sponsor of terrorism would have nuclear weapons.
5. Infanticide, post-birth abortion, would be legalized
6. Taxes would be increased and tax cuts reversed
7. Sharia would become de rigueur
8. Free speech would be outlawed as 'hate speech.
9. Jewish persons would have to find shelter elsewhere
10. We could look forward to the end of private health insurance, reparations for slavery and drug dealers, financial security for those who ‘don’t care to work,’ abortion rights for 'transwomen (men), and packing the Supreme Court.
11. The abolition of prisons so that convicted criminals would be free to prey on innocent citizens.
Oh....and this....
12. Abortion rights for men."AOC Wants to Abolish Prisons
...saying that lawmakers needed to explore the mass release of America's prison population.
Even you must admit you're an imbecile.......true?
GDP has stayed in the 2% range under Trump and is now falling. The projected GDP growth in the last quarter was 2.0%. Sound familiar?
You would ignore legitimate asylum claims and send people back to face possible death. We should trade you and send you back instead.
The tax breaks that the rich and powerful received should be reversed. Everything Trump said would happen is not happening.
You support a woman having no power to make the decision and allowing the state to enforce your beliefs on abortion.
You would allow the health care system to go back to the old ways. Lifetime caps on insurance policies, high premiums for people with pre-existing conditions and other undesirable conditions.
Jewish have the same rights as others and that is not going to change.
You are as far to the right as AOC is to the left. You both are equally wrong and equally bad.
71. "Pence and other Trump enthusiasts can point to increasing macroeconomic growth. Growth rose 4.1 percent in the second quarter and is up more than 3 percent for the year. Unemployment was down to 3.9 percent in July. The S&P 500 stock index is up 6 percent since the Trump presidency, while the rest of the world's stock markets are down 6 percent. These are numbers any recent administration would boast about.
More notable are positive trends among subgroups that weren't doing so well before Trump took office. Former Obama administration chief economic adviser Jason Furman, writing for Vox, notes that in the past three years "recent wage growth ... at the low end of the wage scale" is stronger than growth among the higher-paid. Similarly, Bloomberg columnist and portfolio manager Conor Sen makes the point that job growth has been greatest among "goods-producing workers and the least-educated workers."

76. “President Trump let the world know at the U.N. today that he’s sticking to his vision of America-first sovereignty, rather than cede power to U.N. multilateralists — to their great dismay. Too bad for them: Mr. Trump’s approach is working.
“America will always choose independence and cooperation over global governance, control and domination,” he told world leaders at the UN General Assembly. This country “will not tell you how to live or work or worship.” But we “ask that you honor our sovereignty in return.”

NEXT!!!!
GDP growth is slowing.
2018: 2.9%
First quarter 2019: 3.1%
Second quarter 2019: 2.1%
GDP slows to 2.1% in second quarter but beats expectations thanks to strong consumer
Manufacturing is slumping.
The red flags have been rising for the manufacturing section this year. Hiring has slowed sharply. Last year, the sector was averaging 22,000 new jobs a month, according to Labor Department data. This year it’s down to 8,000. And a popular gauge of manufacturing’s health — the PMI (Purchasing Managers’ Index) — has tumbled in recent months and now sits at near-recession levels.
But the biggest warning sign arrived last week when the Federal Reserve reported that U.S. manufacturing was in a “technical recession” the first half of 2019.
The widely held definition of a recession is when output shrinks for two consecutive quarters. According to the Fed’s U.S. industrial output data, that’s exactly what happened: Output fell for the January through March quarter and again in the April through June quarter.
US manufacturing is in a 'technical recession.' How worried should we be?
US Job Openings slip
The numbers: The number of job openings nationwide fell in August for the third straight month and hit a one-and-a-half-year low, coinciding with a decline in hiring that’s taken place against the backdrop of a slowing U.S. economy.
U.S. job openings fall in August to a 1 1/2-year low as hiring and the economy slow
Then you brag about a 136,000 job gain.
Total nonfarm payroll employment increased by 136,000 in September. Job growth has averaged 161,000 per month thus far in 2019, compared with an average monthly gain of 223,000 in 2018. In September, employment continued to trend up in health care and in professional and business services.
All of this has happened under Trump's trade war. There are no winners in a trade war just losers and that is what we are seeing. The US is in a slowdown and the question is whether it will turn into a recession.
The economy started improving under Obama even though he had nothing to do with it. The economy went into recession under Bush and is slowing down under Trump. You reply to facts with a lame cartoon. Pathetic.
A few more????
Sure thing.

Tax savings for the industry are expected to be substantial. The Penn Wharton Budget Model at the University of Pennsylvania said utilities will pay $1.1 billion less in taxes this year than if the law had not been enacted, $1.9 billion less in 2019 and more than $5 billion less in 2020.

Chinese President Xi Jinping on Tuesday said his government would "significantly lower" tariffs on vehicle imports this year as part of efforts to further open its giant economy to the world.
The pledge addresses one of the gripes of US President Donald Trump, who has threatened to impose new tariffs on $150 billion of Chinese goods in a trade dispute between the world's two largest economies. Experts cautioned, though, that Xi's comments may not do much to resolve the conflict, which has rocked markets in recent weeks."
