Trump’s First Year Was Even Worse Than Feared

Obama's GDP growth was nearly the same GDP growth we had during Bush. Only:
  • Obama created 11.7 million private sector jobs, while Bush lost 460,000
  • Obama reduced the deficit by 2/3, while Bush erased a surplus and produced 4 record deficits
  • Obama grew the stock market from 7,949 -and falling- to 19,732 and rising, while Bush collapsed the market
  • Obama grew wages after 8 years, while wages during Bush declined after 8 years
  • Obama lowered the uninsured rate to the lowest level ever, while Bush rose the rate to its highest level ever
Now think of how great recovery could have been if Conservatives didn't deny recovery was necessary, didn't deny the state of the economy in 2008 (Conservaties said, at the time, that "the fundamentals of the economy are sound"), and didn't make obstructing Obama and tarnishing his legacy their main goal.

Our policies have a track record of success...all your policies leave behind are depressions (Great Depression), recessions (1982-3, 1990-1, 2001, 2007-9), and bailouts (S&L bailout largest taxpayer-funded bailout until TARP).
FALSE! When Obama left, GDP was a meager 1.8% and falling. Trump brought it back up to 3.2% (and rising with a booming stock market) The past year has been a successful recovery from the Obama failure.
 
And Trump created the lowest number of jobs since 2012.
1. Maybe you "forgot" a the jobs opened up (to AMERICANS) from illegal alien deportations.

2. The Labor Department’s monthly employment reports have been volatile this fall, with hurricanes causing job creation to plummet to 18,000 in September and then rebound to 261,000 in October.

3. But with economic growth steady and unemployment low, it becomes harder for employers to fill jobs and draw workers in from the sidelines to join the labor force. Even still, the job growth that we’ve seen this year is still impressive, and it’s much faster than what we need to keep up with the relatively low rate of population growth.

Aren't you glad you have a economics teacher here to tutor you, Jake ? :biggrin:

Still waiting for you to show just one time you criticized any of the hundreds of racist comments by the Trump cult.
I’ll await your documentation.
You'll wait a long time. There are no racist comments from Trump or Trump supporters.

FALSE once again from protectionist. Trump did not even create as many jobs as obama did from 2013 to 2016 each.
 
We are talking about your racism, protectionist: you can't dodge it here anymore than you have any where else.

I'll give you the numbers. You can deny them if you like >>

U.S.: real GDP growth by quarter 2011-2017 | Statista

1. You can see GDP growth dropping from 1.8% in Dec 2016 to 1.2% in Jan 2017 and then shooting up to 3.3 % (the current rate - on a constant rise since Obama left) :biggrin:

2. And again, you're not counting the jobs created by illegal alien deportation.
 
protectionist, don't think you are here to add profound thoughts.

You are here for grins and giggles, nothing more.
