Trump, Trump supporters, Socialism, and the Economy

[Mac1958]

No signs of Trumpian gratitude for all this "socialism", I guess.

That tiny blip at the end, is what is the "QE4".

Do you understand now, why you are being dishonest?

Should we call the reduction which was bigger in the balance sheet "the big taper". Funny, I never heard Mac talk about that - and yet the economy grew!

The big taper was under Trump by the way.

 

[Mac1958]

You seem to have forgot some democrat votes were needed to pass the budget. And those same democrats are the ones that shut the government down because they didn’t get the money they wanted to spend.

And this is why we have a 23 trillion dollar deficit. The party loyalist will never, ever blame their own party, it is always the other side's fault. This has been going on for decades and you sheep have not figured it out yet.

When one side is 90% of the problem and the other is 10% I can always count on you to charge in and blame both equally.

If only that were true. But it is not. Neither side spends more than the other, the only way they might differ on is what it should be spent on.

Your god sitting the the White House submitted the largest budget request in history, by almost a trillion dollars. But he is not the problem...

I'm sure it's someone else's fault.


.

It always is with the partisan sheep.

The tactic these guys are running with is to either (a) deny what's happening is having an effect on anything, or (b) deny what's happening is even happening.

Which, you have to admit, is pretty funny.

Who knows whether they're lying, or ignorant, or both.

Sure, the Fed printed some money, but before that they tapered much more money than that, DURING TRUMP.

I have provided the graph, what is so difficult about this?

Trump is one of the very few, if not the only president in history, for whom the money supply was lower during the end of his term than the start (if the current trend continues of course). You just can not claim with a straight face that his economy is because of monetary stimulus - that is a LIE. He is the most conservative president possibly EVER when it comes to the money printing.

It is not that tiny and it is still growing.

The irony here is that the Fed lowered their balance sheet because it was assumed the economy was on stable ground...what a joke that turned out to be.

These guys aren't even allowed to admit THAT.

The Fed's market greasing and the exploded budget either don't exist or don't count for them.

A cautionary tale - this is what ideology does to a person.

It is smaller than the drop before it - which Mac has been completely silent about. It's almost like he's getting his facts from the media rather than actually paying attention. Never heard about the hardliner that is taper Trump...

The economy has been stable. Many considerations go to the Fed decision. I haven't read their official statement, but it may also have something to do with the trade war.

 

[Zorro!]

I know this thread will degenerate quickly into platitudes, talking points and insults, but what the hell.

Right now the economy is in good shape. Friday's employment & hiring figures were freakin' outstanding to say the least, and there's a good chance we'll keep purring along for the foreseeable future. And that's not something you can always say. So, that's some pretty damn good stuff.

While this is happening, Trump and his supporters are predictably crowing and very proud. Yeah, I can see that, and it's certainly amplified by the current partisan political environment. Yeah, I get that too.

The three largest factors -- and even the slightest internet research will confirm this -- driving this expansion are (1) the aggressive tax cuts, (2) the aggressive increase in government spending, and (3) the Fed pouring HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS OF DOLLARS into markets to grease the system...

Hold on, let's check this:

Well, well, well! It looks like Federal receipts went UP not down and that Fed total assets went DOWN not up!

... Then, on top of that will be the increase in confidence and positivity with both consumers and businesses. Icing on the cake, good stuff, let's go.

So perhaps Trump supporters can explain why they're so against socialism. Two of the largest three contributing stimulative factors -- massive government spending and the Fed's actions -- would have been considered terrible just four years ago, yet the attacks on socialism (whatever the hell the definition is that the person is using) are only escalating.

Can someone explain this, reasonably, civilly, intelligently, and with original, independent thought?

In this Great Nation we don't have a small group of elitists with luxury beliefs controlling everything so that they can signal virtue their status to other members of their cliche.

Here WE THE PEOPLE rule with those we select to represent us, merely our "trusted servants" and believe me, we will never entrust these crooks with the vast power you suggest we must justify withholding from them.

I have a question for you: Do you have any direct experience with government spending? Are you really arguing that they do such a fine job squeezing value out of our hard earned money that they should be granted complete control over our entire economy?

One would have to be a real out of touch elitist, status insecure to the max to seriously promote such a destructive concept with a straight face.

Yes, of course receipts go up in a growing economy. While 2.1% growth is a disappointment considering what has been thrown at the economy, it's still going to increase receipts.

And the Fed balance sheet has already increased by more than $100 billion, as I have documented, several times. In fact, another chart provided by a Trumpster shows it.

I just wish you guys would acknowledge the "socialism" that has played a role in this, but it doesn't look like you know about it.

Not my problem.

Government deficit is not socialism. Tax cuts are the opposite of socialism.

Having a modern monetary system is not really socialism either. But your story does not even add up here so...

Mac, let's recall your last take...

At this moment, this Presidency is not going well

Has it ever occurred to you that perhaps you are wrong?

 

[Mac1958]

Aggressive spending increases and aggressive Fed intervention are.

But I know, in your mind, that didn't happen.
.

I do have a problem with the spending. What I don't have is TDS. Let's be honest, you would have found a other reason for why Trump's economy is not REALLY thriving.

Republicans take the house in 2020 and perhaps we can finally address the spending.

I'm just stating facts. You guys want to give Trump credit for the economy, but play games with how it happened.

I know the game. Both ends play it.
.

There is no end to the excuses you can and will generate. As you said in the other thread, it is because you have a bias against Trump. We get it... own it.

Bottom line, Trump is doing great with the economy.

Great.

You're welcome to show me where I was wrong.

What predictions did I make?

Are you kidding?

"Could the economy turn back up? Yes, definitely, hopefully, but some kind of GOOD trade deal with China is now pretty much mandatory for that to happen. The Courts are the Courts. They'll probably be able to gather enough Lego™ blocks to build enough of a wall somewhere to keep talk radio and the base happy. International Relations? Race Relations? Pffffft. Who cares. Fake news."

Now you say the economy is good... so where is the trade deal?

Your dishonesty is not fooling anyone. Just admit to what you actually believe. This is getting ridiculous.
