Wow! The end of Bush's 8 years vs the end of Obama's 8 years.

[rdean]

A record number of Americans are traveling these Christmas Holidays. And it's easy to see why.
I'm not going to look anything up. Just going by memory. So right wingernuts, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

The DOW at 20,000 vs. Bush's 7,000
Unemployment below 5%. When Obama took office it was over 7% and a couple of months later, topped 10%.

Gas costs less.

Many millions more have health care.

National murder and crime rate lower.

Number of job openings up over 5.8 million for skilled workers.

At the end of Bush's term, jobs were being lost at the rate of 750,000 a month. Obama has had 73 straight months of job growth.

It will be interesting to see where we will be at the end of Trump's first four years:

1. If we are still here

2. If Trump is still in office.

BUSH AND TRUMP.....SNOWFLAKE BOOGEYMEN!!!

Remember the millions of Americans that Bush gassed in camps? He is Hitler...snowflakes were 100% correct. Everything they ever said about BUSH turned out to be 100% correct. Fucking SOOTHSAYERS.

 

[SassyIrishLass]

Trump is set to make America great again....after the last eight years of Obungle's bungling

The problems at the end of Bush's years were caused by democrats. The few good things here at the end of 0bamas years are the result of the GOP's efforts.

There. I corrected it for you.

 

[ColonelAngus]

The REAL fear for Dems is that Trump might actually be an economically successful President.

 

[leftwinger]

Compare to 07' before "they" busted housing. DOW at what 14K? President BO 8 years got DOW up to (18K before Trump bounce Nov 09).

BO numbers better than I thought possible, but not great. And it cost $10T? Is it really that great?

 

[Mac1958]

Bush left behind one big, flaming, fucking disaster, that's for sure.

As for Obama, and whether we would have done better or worse with someone else - too soon to tell. There are still a few things that need to play out both domestically and globally for us to have a better view.

Obama helped the rich? Bastard!!!

 

[LaDexter]

LOL....


Two big spending disasters back to back.

US Federal Debt

2001 - under 5 trillion
2009 - under 10 trillion
2017 - over 19 trillion


We, the United States, are out 15 trillion dollars for the "Period of American WO," where two unimaginable jackasses spent us into oblivion and almost destroyed us. Both are genuine traitors, liars, thieves, and cowards. Both sold out every time Mr. Netanyahu told them to. Neither ever wanted to investigate or bust anything, because THEY WERE THE CORRUPTION.

Damned by faint praise indeed.

 

[ColonelAngus]

Obama added $32,000 of NATIONAL DEBT for every living human being in America.

 

[LaDexter]

Obama added 32k per person, and allowed Democrats, including himself, to pocket 27k of that...

Who the fuck do you thing Trump is going to help, Bahs-turd.. He isn't seeding his cabinet posts with middle classed paupers pinin' for the good ol' daze!

You really can't judge a presidents success until he's been out of office a while.

 

[LaDexter]

until he's been out of office a while

... and everything his bigoted, kleptocratic, meritless, factless, and treasonous rear covered up comes out....

Yup. And even then, there's so much peripheral shit going on that you can only draw some basic conclusions....

That's why I find claims of Obama's and Bush's rankings laughable. So much is still playing out plus, there is also a lot of emotion still attached to them pro and con that obscures things.

That stuff is so silly. Any reasonable person knows that the effects of a presidential term can last years or even decades. Plus all the various constant undercurrents, unexpected events and changes in direction. Incredibly simplistic, linear thinking.

I think we just like to rank stuff. And of course, all the Presidents in MY party just HAPPEN to rank higher with me.

Indeed a record number of Americans are traveling this Christmas season.

Just unfortunate that, not among them, are those who vowed (but we knew liberals lie so it's no surprise) to flee to some socialist utopia if President Trump were elected.

Maybe we could crowd-fund a few?
